The in‐capillary DPPH‐capillary electrophoresis‐the diode array detector combined with reversed‐electrode polarity stacking mode for screening and quantifying major antioxidants in Cuscuta chinensis Lam

An in‐capillary 2, 2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)‐CE‐the DAD (in‐capillary DPPH‐CE‐DAD) combined with reversed‐electrode polarity stacking mode has been developed to screen and quantify the active antioxidant components of Cuscuta chinensis Lam. The operation parameters were optimized with regard to the pH and concentration of buffer solution, SDS, β‐CDs, organic modifier, as well as separation voltage and temperature. Six antioxidants including chlorogenic acid, p‐coumaric acid, rutin, hyperin, isoquercitrin, and astragalin were screened and the total antioxidant activity of the complex matrix was successfully evaluated based on the decreased peak area of DPPH by the established DPPH‐CE‐DAD method. Sensitivity was enhanced under reversed‐electrode polarity stacking mode and 10‐ to 31‐fold of magnitude improvement in detection sensitivity for each analyte was attained. The results demonstrated that the newly established in‐capillary DPPH‐CE‐DAD method combined with reversed‐electrode polarity stacking mode could integrate sample concentration, the oxidizing reaction, separation, and detection into one capillary to fully automate the system. It was considered a suitable technique for the separation, screening, and determination of trace antioxidants in natural products.

Development of a quality evaluation method for Fructus schisandrae by pressurized capillary electrochromatography

A pressurized CEC (pCEC) method with postcolumn detection cell had been developed for quantifying the lignans from Fructus schisandrae extracts. The effects of different experimental conditions, such as the ACN content of the mobile phase, the concentration and pH of the buffer, the applied voltage, and the supplementary pressure were studied. Five lignans (schisandrin, gomisin A, schisantherin C, deoxyschizandrin, schisandrin B) were baseline separated using a mobile phase of ACN-phosphate buffer (pH 5.4; 5 mM) (40:60 v/v) under -4 kV applied voltage. The method showed the satisfactory retention time and peak area repeatability. The calibration curves were linear in the range 50.0-1000.0 microg/mL for schisandrin, 20.0-500.0 microg/mL for gomisin A, 10.0-200.0 microg/mL for schisantherin C, 20.0-500.0 microg/mL for deoxyschizandrin, and 20.0-500.0 microg/mL for schisandrin B. The correlation coefficients were between 0.9978 and 0.9989. With this pCEC system, fingerprints of F. schisandrae were preliminarily established to distinguish two members S. chinensis (Turcz.) Baill. and S. sphenanthera Rehd. Et Wils. of F. schisandrae by characteristic peaks, and evaluate the quality of various sources of raw materials by determining the contents of the five lignans.     

Chemical composition and α-amylase inhibitory activity of the essential oil from Sabina chinensis cv. Kaizuca leaves

Sabina chinensis cv. Kaizuca (SCK) is a variant of S. chinensis L. The essential oil from its leaves exhibited α-amylase inhibitory activity in vitro and the IC₅₀ value was 187.08 ± 0.56 μg/mL. Nineteen compounds were identified from this essential oil by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. The major compounds identified were bornyl acetate (42.6%), elemol (20.5%), β-myrcene (13.7%) and β-linalool (4.0%). In order to study the reason of the α-amylase inhibitory activity of this essential oil, the identified compounds were docked with α-amylase by molecular docking individually. Among these compounds, γ-eudesmol exhibited the lowest binding energy (?6.73 kcal/mol), followed by α-copaen-11-ol (?6.66 kcal/mol), cubedol (?6.39 kcal/mol) and α-acorenol (?6.12 kcal/mol). The results indicated that these compounds were the active ingredients responsible for the α-amylase inhibitory activity of essential oil from SCK.     

A new ent-kaurane diterpene derivative from the stems of Eurya chinensis R.Br

One new ent-kaurane diterpene derivative (1), along with four known diterpenes, was isolated from the stems of Eurya chinensis R.Br. The structure of the new compound was established by extensive analysis of mass spectrometric and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. Compound 1 showed moderate anti-inflammatory activities with IC₅₀ value of 8.12 μM. This is the first example of diterpenoids with 4-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-hydroxyl-cyclohexanoyl substituent.     

An efficient strategy for the extraction and purification of lignans from Schisandra chinensis by a combination of supercritical fluid extraction and high‐speed counter‐current chromatography

An efficient strategy for extracting and separating five lignans from Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill has been developed using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and high‐speed counter‐current chromatography (HSCCC) in the present study. First, the extraction was performed by a preparative SFE system under 15 MPa of pressure at 36°C for 4 h. Then, the SFE extract was successfully separated and purified by HSCCC with a two‐phase solvent system composed of n‐hexane/ethyl acetate/methanol/water (6:4:5:5, 6:4:6:4, 6:4:8:2, v/v) in a stepwise elution mode. The fractions were analyzed by HPLC, and the chemical structures of the products were identified by ESI‐MS and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. As a result, a total of 12.5 mg of schisandrin at 98.0% purity, 7.1 mg of gomisin A at 98.1% purity, 1.8 mg of schisantherin B at 93.3% purity, 4.4 mg of deoxyschisandrin at 92.9% purity, and 6.8 mg of γ‐schisandrin at 89.1% purity were obtained from 300 mg crude extract in a one‐step purification.
