“…Las saponinas no resisten cambios bruscos de pH, valores muy ácidos o básicos generan la ruptura de los enlaces O-glucosídicos (véase figura 1). Esta característica es útil y empleada en metodologías para su cuantificación y elucidación estructural [24].…”

Las saponinas son un tipo de metabolito secundario ampliamente estudiado por susreconocidas propiedades biológicas. Gran parte de las investigaciones en fitoquímicaestán dirigidas a encontrar nuevas fuentes naturales de saponinas con aplicaciónmedicinal. La quinua (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) es una planta que ha alcanzadoun valioso reconocimiento por ser una fuente de alimentos altamente nutritivos, asícomo una especie rica en saponinas triterpénicas contenidas, principalmente, en lacáscara de las semillas. A la fecha, se han identificado alrededor de 30 saponinas derivadasde la hederagenina y de los ácidos oleanólico, fitolacagénico y serjanico en laplanta. El consumo del grano de quinua implica la remoción de la cáscara a fin dereducir su sabor amargo, la ingesta de niveles residuales de saponinas y la obtenciónde un subproducto rico en las mismas. Esta revisión, inicialmente, ofrece una contextualizacióngeneral de las saponinas; posteriormente, recopila las característicasestructurales de las saponinas identificadas en la quinua, describe el efecto del procesamientodel grano en su contenido de saponinas y, finalmente, expone los efectosbiológicos explorados con extractos de saponinas de quinua, los cuales pueden serconsiderados como punto de partida en investigaciones futuras dirigidas al fortalecimientode su uso en el campo farmacéutico y/o nutracéutico.

“…Studies with saponins present in the extract of Agave decipiens [29] and Yucca desmettiana [30] was verified that the substances present in the extracts showed molluscicide activity against the Biomphalaria Alexandrina snail, where this effect on mollusc can is related to the nature of the chain, number of residues and sequence sugars present in the molecule structure. However, A. colubrina extract was not observed the presence of sugar after the completion of phytochemical analysis.…”

“…Plant molluscicides have been regarded as possible alternatives to the costly and environmentally hazardous molluscicides currently available (Oliveira-Filho et al, 2010). More than 1000 plant species have been screened for molluscicidal activity, and some plants acts a great potential value as molluscicides, such as Cryptostegia grandiflora (Elsayed, et al, 2011), Yucca desmetiana (Diab et al, 2012), Nerium indicum (Dai et al, 2011), Eucalyptus globules (Al-Sayed et al, 2014), Saraca asoca (Dos Santos et al, 2014), Pueraria peduncularis (Yang et al,. 2017) and Moringa oleifera (Ibrahim and Abdalla, 2017).…”

Saponin fraction from A. anthelmintica has a promising molluscicidal effect against snails for LC 50 of 17.6 ppm as well as a strong biocidal activity against the larval stages of S. mansoni (miracidia and cercariae). A high significant decrease (p<0.001) was recorded in infection rate and survival rate during continuous exposure of the plant; being 50±10 and 44.66±5.05 respectively compared with 81±10.1 in control groups respectively. Light microscopic investigation showed that the tested plant is responsible for the increase of snail's amoebocytes that is consider a main component of the internal defense system of the B. alexandrina snails. Electron microscopic examination showed remarkable apoptotic effects, nuclear chromatin condensation, vacuolated cytoplasm and deterioration in the internal organs as endoplasmic reticulum. It is concluded that exposure of B. alexandrina snails to saponin fraction from A. anthelmintica may be used as a promising molluscicidal and biocidal against the S. mansoni parasite.
