Controle de qualidade da raiz de Operculina macrocarpa (Linn) Urb., Convolvulaceae

Abstract: RESUMO:A qualidade dos fitoterápicos inclui rigoroso acompanhamento das diferentes etapas do desenvolvimento e produção destes produtos, desde a coleta do vegetal até a disponibilidade do produto final. Neste trabalho foi realizado o controle da qualidade do da raiz de Operculina macrocarpa (Linn) Urb., popularmente conhecida como batata-de-purga. Para o controle físico-químico e microbiológico utilizaram-se metodologias farmacopeicas e não farmacopeicas. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que a raiz apresenta um… Show more

“…The effects of luminosity on the production components of a crop are evident, since the presence of light causes a reduction in CO 2 concentration in the mesophyll, due to the photosynthesis, increasing the pH of the environment, which becomes alkaline and favorable to the production of enzymes involved in starch degradation and, therefore, increasing the concentration of glucose in the mesophyll (Michelin et al, 2010). Thus, plants cultivated without plastic cover consumed a greater amount of water due to the high temperatures occurring along the experimental period, in order not to be under stress and cause lower development of tubers.…”

“…This wild species, popularly known as 'batata-de-purga' or 'jalapa' (Convolvulaceae), has been the target of many studies on its chemicaltaxonomical characteristics in the control of gastrointestinal helminth diseases of naturally infected goats (Michelin et al, 2010). In the last ten years, the interest in higher plants, especially in phytotherapeutic agents, has expressively increased, not only in developing countries, but also in industrialized countries.…”

“…Operculina macrocarpa (L.) Urb., Convolvulaceae, popularly known in Brazil as "batata-de-purga" or "jalapa" (Matos, 1994), is widely used in traditional medicine as a laxative and purgative (Matos, 1982;Martins et al, 2000;Michelin and Salgado, 2004;Gomes et al, 2008;Michelin et al, 2010). Moreover, traditional products from roots of this species are used to treat circulatory impairments (Matos et al, 1982), such as thrombosis, and recently its antiplatelet and anticoagulant activities were experimentally studied (Pierdoná et al, 2014).…”

“…Isto se aplica também no modo de preparo dos extratos vegetais e medicamentos. Diversos fatores influenciam a qualidade final da droga vegetal e dos seus derivados, tais como: variações climáticas, tipo de solo empregado no plantio, época da colheita, características genéticas da planta, condições de secagem, tempo de armazenamento, entre outros fatores (MICHELIN et al, 2010).…”
