Berberine and palmatine are two of the main bioactive components in Huangbai, a major Chinese medicinal herb. The current methods to extract these compounds usually involving the usage of inorganic acid and base, are not only complex and time-consuming, but have a low selectivity. In this paper, it
A sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of tetrahydropalmatine, protopine and palmatine in rat plasma using phenacetin as the internal standard (IS). Two hundred
A rapid, sensitive and specific high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (HPLC-MS/MS) method has been developed for quantification of mitoxantrone in rat plasma. The analyte and palmatine (internal standard) were extracted from plasma samples with diethyl
BACKGROUND
Stephania rotunda Lour. (Menispermaceae) is a creeper growing in many countries of Asia and commonly found in the mountainous areas of Cambodia. As a folk medicine, it has been mainly used for the treatment of fever and malaria. The pharmacological activity is mostly due to alkaloids.
High-performance centrifugal partition chromatography (HPCPC) has been successfully applied to the separation of four protoberberine quaternary alkaloids, namely palmatine, jatrorrhizine, columbamine and pseudocolumbamine, from a methanolic extract (M1, 1.47 g) of Enantia chlorantha Oliver stem
Chelidonium majus L. is one of the most important medicinal plants of the family Papaveraceae. Its pharmacological effects have been primarily attributed to the presence of a number of alkaloids. In the present study, a sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method
In vitro acetylcholinesterase activities of the hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol and aqueous extracts of leaves of Ocotea percoriacea Kosterm. (Lauraceae) were evaluated. The bioguided fractionation of the most active extract (dichloromethane) using silica gel open-column
Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a common treatment for early stages of the most general form of dementia, Alzheimer's Disease (AD). In this study, methanol, dichloromethane and aqueous crude extracts from 80 Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) plants were tested for their in vitro
A rapid hydrostatic counter-current chromatography-thin-layer chromatography-electrospray-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (CCC-TLC-ESI-TOF-MS) technique was established for use in seeking potent anti-Alzheimer's drugs among the acethylcholinesterase inhibitors in Argemone mexicana L.
The photoprocesses of berberine, palmatine, coralyne, sanguinarine, flavopereirine and ellipticine were studied in several solvents. The quantum yields Φ(Δ) of singlet molecular oxygen formation of berberine, palmatine and sanguinarine are moderate in dichloromethane (0.2-0.6) and much smaller in
