Untersuchungen über die Bedeutung der Ursolsäure für die pflanzliche Kutikula. 3. Mitteilung zur Kenntnis der Biochemie der Triterpene

Abstract: Nachdem unsere Untersuchungenl) das reiche Vorkommen von Oxytriterpensauren in Labiaten ergeben hatten, erhob sich die Frage, welche Aufgabe diese Verbindungen im pflanzlichen Organismus erfullen. Einen Anhaltspunkt hierzu vermittelte unsere Beobachtung, wonach sich Uraol-und Oleanolsaure immer nur in der Kutikula abgelagert finden2). Die Kutikula stellt die BuSerste Membranlamelle dar, welche die Epidermiszellen der meisten Landpflanzen iiberzieht. Sie ist durchschnittlich 0,5 bis 1 p dick, kann aber, z. B. b… Show more

“…An approximation was obtained from the contact angle evaluation (θbanana < θeggplant) where the banana surface facilitated the wetting; this is probably due to the chemical cuticle composition. Eggplant cuticle is composed mostly of n-alkane groups such as n-hentriacontane (C31) and triterpenoid alcohols (α-and β-amyrin) as predominant wax components [21], thus the presence of triterpenoid compounds such as ursolic acid may make the surface cuticle more difficult to wet [22], showing a tendency to form weak bonds through Van der Waals forces. Meanwhile, the banana cuticle surface is composed of ketones and aldehydes which can form hydrogen bonds [11].…”
