      Planta Med. 83, 1035-1043 (2017). TLC on silica gel with detection with anisaldehyde or Kedde’s reagent, 1) with ethyl acetate to monitor the isolation of digitoxin, by flash chromatography, from a fraction of a methanolic extract of Digitalis lanata, 2) with ethyl acetate – dichloromethane 1:1 to monitor five different methods for the hemisynthesis (with silver oxyde and diphenylborinic acid) of glucoevatromonoside from evatromonoside, itself produced from digitoxin, 3) with ketone – methanol 19:1 to analyse the glucoevatromonoside produced by biotransformation of evatromonoside by the glycosyltransferase activity of suspension cell cultures of Digitalis lanata. Digitoxigenin was used as internal standard, using the methanol fraction of the cell lysates, either directly or after a purification by flash chromatography. Hemisynthesis was twice more efficient as biotransformation, but the yield did not reach 70%.
