cinchonidine/cinchona

We report a sensitive method for the estimation of quinine (Qn), cinchonine (Cn), and cinchonidine (Cnd) and a new method based on fluorescence enhancement and detection and quantification of quinidine (Qnd) from Cinchona stem bark and its formulations, using HPTLC. Standard solutions of Qn, Qnd,

We report that an endophytic filamentous fungus species of the genus Diaporthe isolated from Cinchona ledgeriana (Rubiaceae) produces Cinchona alkaloids (quinine, quinidine, cinchonidine, and cinchonine) upon cultivation in a synthetic liquid medium. This study provides evidence that Cinchona

Transformed root cultures of CINCHONA LEDGERIANA have been generated by infecting shoots cultured IN VITRO with AGROBACTERIUM RHIZOGENES LBA9402. These root cultures grow axenically in the absence of antibiotics or exogenous plant growth regulators in media containing Gamborg B5 salts at half or

We report that the endophytic filamentous fungus Diaporthe sp., isolated from Cinchona ledgeriana and cultivated in a synthetic liquid medium, produces Cinchona alkaloids (quinine, quinidine, cinchonidine, and cinchonine). This shows that Cinchona alkaloids are produced not only in Cinchona plant

The toxicity of Cinchona alkaloids to cell cultures of C. ledgeriana has been studied in relation to alkaloid uptake and possibilities for selecting high-yielding cell lines. The most toxic, quinine, was completely toxic at 5.5 mM. Both quinine and quinidine were more toxic than their unmethoxylated

The alkaloid contents of the serially propagated CINCHONA LEDGERIANA leaf-shoot organ cultures that were fed with various precursors, were compared to the control cultures that were grown in Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with 5 mg/l benzyladenine. the average total alkaloid content of

The microbial transformation of four Cinchona alkaloids (quinine, quinidine, cinchonidine, and cinchonine) by endophytic fungi isolated from Cinchona pubescens was investigated. The endophytic filamentous fungus Xylaria sp. was found to transform the Cinchona alkaloids into their 1-N-oxide

Quinas contains several compounds, such as quinoline alkaloids, principally quinine, quinidine, cinchonine and cichonidine. Identified from barks of Cinchona, quinine is still commonly used to treat human malaria. Microwave-Integrated Extraction and Leaching (MIEL) is proposed for the extraction of

Considerable inter- and intraspecific variation with respect to the quantity and composition of plant natural products exists. The processes that drive this variation remain largely unknown. Understanding which factors determine chemical diversity has the potential to shed light on plant defenses

Bacterial biofilms are resistant to most of the commonly available antibacterial chemotherapies. Thus, an enormous need exists to meet the demands of effective anti-biofilm therapy. In this study, a small library of cinchona alkaloids, including the naturally occurring compounds cinchonidine and

The Cinchona alkaloids are quinoline aminoalcohols that occur as diastereomer pairs, typified by (-)-quinine and (+)-quinidine. The potency of (+)-isomers is greater than the (-)-isomers in vitro and in vivo against Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites. They may act by the inhibition of heme

Major Cinchona alkaloids quinine, quinidine, cinchonine, and cinchonidine are available chiral natural compounds (chiral pool). Unlike many other natural products, these alkaloids are available in multiple diastereomeric forms which are separated on an industrial scale. The introduction discusses in

Quinoline-derived compounds exhibit the following relative chemisorption strengths from CCl4 solutions onto platinum surfaces, as determined by in-situ infrared spectroscopy: quinine, quinidine > cinchonidine > cinchonine > 6-methoxyquinoline > lepidine > quinoline. This sequence explains nonlinear

The 2-oxidation activity on the pyrimidine ring of RS-8359, a MAO-A inhibitor, is the major metabolic pathway catalysed by aldehyde oxidase. This study investigated the species differences in the 2-oxidation activity by using liver cytosolic fractions from rats, mice, guinea-pigs, rabbits, dogs,
