      Quantitation of beta-sitosterol from Woodfordia fruticosa (Linn
      Smruti SHAH*, Sunita SHAILAJAN (*Herbal Research Lab, Ramnarain Ruia College, Matunga, Mumbai, India)

      Analytical Chemistry - An Indian Journal 8(1), 82-86 (2009). An HPTLC method is reported for estimation of beta-sitosterol in flowers of Woodfordia fruticosa (Lythraceae) and its polyherbal formulation. HPTLC on silica gel with toluene - ethyl acetate - methanol - glacial acetic acid 80:10:5:3. Methanolic extracts of the sample were used for chromatographic separation. Derivatization with Liebermann-Burchard reagent, densitometric quantification at 366 nm. The linearity range was 100-700 ng/band. The flowers of the plant contained 0.18 µg/mg beta-sitosterol and the tablet herbal formulation contained 0.15 µg/mg.

      Screening for 16-O-methylcafestol in roasted coffee by high-performance thin-layer chromatography-fluorescence detection – Determination of Coffea canephora admixtures to Coffea arabica
      Claudia OELLIG*, J. RADOVANOVIC (*Inst. of Food Chem., Univ. of Hohenheim, Garbenstrasse 28, 70599 Stuttgart, Germany, claudia.oellig@uni-hohenheim.de)

      J. Chromatogr. A 1525, 173-280 (2017). Presentation of a straightforward, selective and sensitive screening method for the determination of 16-O-methylcafestol (16-OMC) in roasted coffee, the characteristic diterpene exclusively present in Coffea canephora which is an excellent marker for Coffea canephora admixtures to Coffea arabica. HPTLC with fluorescence detection (HPTLC–FLD), using sudan IV as internal standard and a direct saponification with 10 % ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution, followed by solid-supported liquid extraction with petroleum ether. Selective derivatization of 16-OMC with 2-naphthoyl chloride and analysis by HPTLC–FLD on silica gel with cyclohexane – t-butyl methyl ether – formic acid 43:7:1. Quantitative determination of the enhanced fluorescence at 244/>320 nm. The LOD and LOQ was 5 and 14 mg/kg of 16-OMC in coffee, which allowed for the determination of Coffea canephora admixtures to Coffea arabica below 1 %. The recovery for blends of Coffea arabica with Coffea canephora was close to 100 %._x000D_
