Infrared (IR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics has been developed for simple analysis of flavonoid in the medicinal plant extract. Flavonoid was extracted from medicinal plant leaves by ultrasonication and maceration. IR spectra of selected medicinal plant extract were correlated with flavonoid content using chemometrics. The chemometric method used for calibration analysis was Partial Last Square (PLS) and the methods used for classification analysis were Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Soft Independent Modelling of Class Analogies (SIMCA), and Support Vector Machines (SVM). In this study, the calibration of NIR model that showed best calibration with R
2 and RMSEC value was 0.9916499 and 2.1521897, respectively, while the accuracy of all classification models (LDA, SIMCA, and SVM) was 100%. R
2 and RMSEC of calibration of FTIR model were 0.8653689 and 8.8958149, respectively, while the accuracy of LDA, SIMCA, and SVM was 86.0%, 91.2%, and 77.3%, respectively. PLS and LDA of NIR models were further used to predict unknown flavonoid content in commercial samples. Using these models, the significance of flavonoid content that has been measured by NIR and UV-Vis spectrophotometry was evaluated with paired samples t-test. The flavonoid content that has been measured with both methods gave no significant difference.
The combination of Theophylline and Ephedrine isoften used to induce an additive effect in alleviating thesymptoms of respiratory disorders. This research is aimed todevelop a Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) densitometrymethodfor the simultaneous determination of Theophyllineand Ephedrine hydrochloride in tablet dosage form. Themethod employed TLC aluminium plates precoated withsilica gel 60F254 as the stationary phase and the mixture ofethyl acetate: glacial acetic acid: aquabidest (11: 5 : 1 v/v)asthe eluen system. For detection of Ephedrinehydrochloride, the TLC plate must be re-eluted with 0,5%ninhydrin solution in aquabidest, and then heated at 105°Cfor 15 min. Quantitative evaluation was performed bymeasuring the absorbance-reflectance of the analyte spot at279 nm and 505 nm for Theophylline and Ephedrinehydrochloride, respectively. validation of the method showthat TLC Densitometryis selective and specific,showed agood linearity, precise, and accurate and can be used forroutine analysis of tablet in industrial quality controllaboratories.Keywords:TLCDensitometryV, alidationT, heophyllineE, phedrinehydrochloride
The stability indication of Reversed Phase-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was validated for quantitative determination of mangiferin on three species mango leaves (Mangifera odorata Griff, Mangifera foetida Lour, and Mangifera indica L.). The samples were extracted by maseration method using methanol and concentrated using rotary evaporator. The method carried out on stationary phase a purospher RP-18 endcapped (25 cm × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm) column with a mobile phase consisting of methanol: phosphoric acid 0.1% (v/v) (31:69); flow rate:0.8 mL/min; solvent methanol, detection was carried out at 258 nm. The analytical performace this measurement is good with the value of linearity (r2=0.998), precision (%RSD=0.649%), and accuration (10.67%). The forced degradation studies were carried out according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The results indicating that the complete separation between degradation products and mangiferin peak occured. The degradation limit of mangiferin 5–20% (according to the guideline of ICH) except in basic condition (100%). The method was succesful applied to determine of the mangiferin in pakel (Mangifera foetida), kweni (Mangifera indica) and kopyor (Mangifera odorata) extract. The mangiferin content was obtained are pakel (9.95%), kopyor (7.40%) and kweni (Mangifera odorata) (2.49%) respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
