The biosynthesis of fukinolic acid, which had been isolated from the Japanese fuki vegetable, Petasites japonicus, was investigated by feeding selected (13)C-labeled compounds to axenic cultures of P. japonicus. [1,2-(13)C(2)] sodium acetate and [1-(13)C] L-tyrosine were incorporated into the fukiic
The antioxidant activity of Petasites japonicus flower buds cultivated in Tokushima, Japan, was examined in vitro and in vivo. The flower bud extracts were assayed using either oxygen radical absorbance capacity or 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging
Gradient HPLC coupled to Diode Array Detector (DAD), MS/MS and NMR was applied to the rapid structure determination of major compounds of methanol extracts from leaves and roots of Petasites japonicus. The relative antioxidant capacities of the compounds were evaluated by an HPLC system with
