      Densitometric determination of embelin in Lysimachia punctata
      I. PODOLAK*, Z. JANECZKO, J. KRZEK, A, APOLA, D. WALUSIAK, (*Dept. of Pharmacogn., Coll. Med., Jagiellonian Univ., Medyczna 9, 30-688 Cracow, Poland)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 16, 48-51 (2003). TLC of embelin (2,5-dihydroxy-3-undecyl-1,4-benzoquinone) on silica gel, impregnated with 1% oxalic acid solution, with n-hexane - ethyl acetate 7:3 in a saturated chamber. Detection in visible light as a yellow spot; densitometry at 285 nm. Under these experimental conditions the method was highly sensitive - detection limit 12.5 ng - and recovery was satisfactory - from 89.45% to 92.28%.

      E. SHEEJA*, V. KULDEEP, J. EDWIN, A. SHOWKAT, D. ANWAR (*TIFAC-CORE in Green Pharmacy, B. R. Nahata College of Pharmacy & Research Centre, Mhow Neemuch Rd.,Mandsaur,M.P.,India, sheejapharm@rediffmail.com)

      Indian drugs 48 (02), 43-47 (2011). TLC of curcumin and 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid on silica gel with chloroform - methanol 37:3 for curcumin and n-hexane - ethyl acetate 1:1 for boswellic acid derivatives. The hRf value of 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid was 24 and of curcumin 59. Densitometric evaluation at 430 nm for curcumin and 254 nm for the acid. The method was linear in the range of 100-500 ng/band for curcumin and 1500-4000 ng/band for 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid.
