biochanin/dichloromethane

A simple method was developed for the determination of free and/or total isoflavones daidzein, genistein, and their respective 4'-methoxy derivatives biochanin A and formononetin (biochanin B) at low levels in human urine. A solid-phase extraction on octadecyl silica (C(18)) columns was used for the

The fractionation through bioguided antileishmanial activity of the dichloromethane extract of Cassia fistula fruits (Leguminosae) led to the isolation of the active isoflavone biochanin A, identified by spectroscopic methods. This compound showed 50% effective concentration (EC(50)) value of 18.96

A method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) has been developed for the determination of 12 isoflavones in Trifolium pratense L. Dried leaf samples were blended with C(18), placed in small columns and isoflavones extracted with dichloromethane-methanol. Analyses were performed by high

OBJECTIVE The chemical study of a dichloromethane extract from Azorella compacta was directed to the isolation of characteristic mulinane and azorellane diterpenoids in order to determine their gastroprotective activity. METHODS Usual chromatographic techniques on the extract led to the isolation of

Type 2 diabetes is the most prominent of all diabetes types, contributing to global morbidity and mortality. Availability and cost of treatment with little or no side effect especially in developing countries, remains a huge burden. This has led to the search of affordable alternative therapies

Glycation has been involved in Schiff base reaction lead to hyperglycemia at cellular level. The current study aimed to identify the bioactive compounds from selected folkloric plants for their antiglycation and antioxidant potential. Methanol extracts demonstrated the highest activities, therefore,
