Food Chem. 137, 108790 (2022). HPTLC of ursolic acid and oleanolic acid in Ocimum species on silica gel with 1 % iodine solution in chloroform up to 1.3 cm. Plates were kept for 10 min, followed by developing with hexane - ethyl acetate - methanol 82:18:5. Detection by spraying with 1 % methanolic sulfuric acid.
Chinese Medicine 10, 13 (2015). Samples were root and rhizome extracts of Panax notoginseng (Araliaceae), either raw or in the form of commercial granules. Standards were ginsenosides Rg1, Rb1, Rd, Re and Rg2, notoginsenoside NR1. TLC on silica gel with chloroform – ethyl acetate – methanol – water 15:40:22:9, followed by 10 min air drying. Derivatization for ginsenosides by immersion into sulfuric acid (10 % in ice cold methanol), followed by 10 min air drying and 5 min heating at 100 °C. Quantification by densitometric fluorescence measurement (deuterium and tungstene lamp, 366 nm). For each standard the linear range was 0.05-1 mg/mL (LOQ comprised between 38 and 431 µg/µL). As NR1 and Re (ratio ca. 2:1) had almost the same hRF, they were quantified together as one substance. Multivariate analysis through hierarchical (HCA) and principal component analyses (PCA) was used to order the samples into two clusters, according to the analyte concentrations, the raw plant extracts being richer than most of the commercial products. This TLC method was compared to quantification through UPLC-PDA (Ultra-performance liquid chromatography with photo diode array), which was more sensitive (LOQ between 10 and 49 µg/µL) but did not allow the separation between Rg1 and Re (ratio ca. 6:1).
Chinese Medicine 7, 12 (2012). TLC of a Soxhlet hydro-ethanolic extract of Trichosanthes lobata leaves (Cucurbitaceae) on silica gel with n-hexane – ethyl acetate 7:3. Derivatization with anisaldehyde – sulfuric acid reagent. The presence of flavonoids, saponins, and tannins was found.
Chinese Medicine 16, 98 (2021). Preparative TLC on silica gel for the isolation of bisbakuchiol N (a terpenophenolic) from a cyclohexane extract of Psoralea corylifolia (= Cullen corylifolia, Fabaceae) mature fruits, after fractionation on silica gel, cyclodextrane and reverse-phase columns. Mobile phase was petroleum ether – chloroform 10:1. Derivatization with sulfuric acid (10 % in ethanol – water, 19:1).
Food Control. 136, 108840 (2022). HPTLC of flavonoids, coumarins, sesquiterpene lactones and phenolic acids in German Chamomile (Matricaria recutita L.) on silica gel with ethyl acetate - methanol - water - acetic acid 200:25:20:1 and ethyl acetate - toluene 2:1. Detection of flavonoids and phenolic acids by spraying with Natural product reagent. Detection of sesquiterpene lactones by spraying with anisaldehyde sulfuric acid reagent. Qualitative analysis under UV light at 366 nm. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used for reducing data dimensionality and representing samples across principal components.
Food Chem. 383, 132597 (2022). HPTLC of protodioscin and escin in Camellia and Fenugreek on RP-18 with methanol - water - formic acid 65:35:1. Detection by spraying with 0.5 % p-anisaldehyde in a sulfuric methanol solution, followed by heating at 150 °C until visualization of zones.
Marine Drugs 20(12), 757 (2022). Samples were ethyl acetate macerates and diethyl ether Soxhlet extracts from invasive Caulerpa cylindracea and non-invasive C. lentillifera (Caulerpaceae), as well as caulerpine (bisindole alkaloid) as standard isolated from one of the extracts. TLC on silica gel with petroleum ether – diethyl ether 1:1. Quantitative evaluation by densitometry at 330 nm, quantification of caulerpine (hRF 41, LOD 20 ng/zone, LOQ 68 ng/zone). The concentrations of caulerpine in C. cylindracea extracts (96-112 µg/g) were higher than in C. lentillifera (0-8 µg/g).
Marine Drugs 17(3), 148 (2019). Samples were ethyl acetate extracts of seagrass Amphibolis antarctica (Cymodoceaceae), and of algae: Austrophyllis harveyana (Kallymeniaceae), Carpoglossum confluens, Cystophora harveyi, C. monilifera, C. pectinata and C. subfarcinata, Myriodesma integrifolium, Sargassum lacerifolium (Sargassaceae), Codium fragile subsp. tasmanicum (Codiaceae), Ecklonia radiata (Lessoniaceae), Hypnea valida, Rhodophyllis membaneacea (Cystocloniaceae), Hormosira banksii (Hormosiraceae), Perithalia caudata (Sporochnaceae), Phyllospora comoasa, Scytothalia dorycarpa (Seirococcaceae), Plocamium dilatatum (Plocamiaceae), and epiphytic brown algae. HPTLC on silica gel (pre-washed with methanol and heated 30 min at 100 °C) with n-hexane – ethyl acetate – acetic acid 15:9:1. Derivatization by immersion: A) into anisaldehyde – sulfuric acid reagent, followed by 10 min heating at 105 °C, for the detection of steroids and terpenes; B) into DPPH• (0.2 % in methanol), followed by 30 min incubation in the dark, for the detection of antioxydants; C) into Fast Blue B solution (0.1 % in 70 % ethanol) for detection of phenols (with alkylresorcinols detected as dark purple zones on colorless background). Effect-directed analyses were performed directly on the plates. D) α-Amylase inhibition assay by immersion into enzyme solution, incubation 30 min at 37 °C, immersion into substrate solution (starch 2 % in water), incubation 20 min at 37 °C and immersion into Gram’s iodine solution for detection (inhibition zones appear blue on white background). E) Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition assay (after neutralization by immersion into phosphate buffer) by immersion into enzyme solution, incubation 30 min at 37 °C, immersion into substrate solution (α-naphthyl acetate) and into dye reagent (Fast Blue Salt B). Densitometry through automated scanning, quantification expressed as equivalents to the respective standards used for calibration curves: A) β-sitosterol (LOQ 1.6 µg/band), B) gallic acid (LOQ 60 ng/band), D) acarbose (LOQ 173 µg/band), E) donepezil (LOQ 96 µg/mL). Alkylresorcinols were detected as antioxydant in C. harveyi and C. pectinata (hRF 88), and in C. subfarcinata (hRF 72, 81, 88). Enzymatic inhibitors in C. fragile were considered as a flavone (hRF 65) and a terpenoid (hRF 77), due to their absorption curves (densitometric scan in range 200-400 nm).
