Influence of harvest stage on the pharmacological effect of Angelica dahurica

Abstract: BackgroundBaizhi (Angelica dahurica) has been widely used as a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, functional food and cosmetic product ingredient, mostly because of the high furanocoumarin compounds in roots. The cropping system of Baizhi with its unique summer dormancy feature, is easily affected by the transition of its growth stages. The aim of this study was to analyze the quantity (size, form and dry weight [DW]) and quality (antioxidant and furanocoumarin content) of taproot and lateral root from three… Show more

“…Indeed, its taproot and lateral roots have shown different patterns of furanocoumarins, according to their harvest stage, with different compounds providing yields variable up to 50% at different harvest stages. As a rule of thumb, when below-ground are to be collected, a general suggestion seems to be focused on the summer dormancy stage as the best harvest period, because of its richer total furanocoumarin content [41]. To maximize furanocoumarins’ yield, the optimal collection time for aerial parts is therefore represented by early spring and any sampling for analytical purpose should precisely describe the time of collection for the plant material.…”

“…[17] The effect of the harvest time and the ripening stages on a variety of plant species has been studied in different levels, chief among them: physiological maturity, [18] phytoconstituents quantity and quality, [19,20] biological activities. [21,22] Several studies dealt with the influence of seasonal harvest on P. atlantica Desf. leaves essential oils in term of quantity and quality of their chemical components, [23] and with the ripening degree effect on the variation of their fruits oils phytoconstituents.…”

“…Shan et Yuan, with the Chinese name Baizhi, has been widely used as a herb and spice for more than 2000 years [3,4]. Significant pharmacological activities were found in Baizhi, such as anti-inflammation, analgesia, inhibition of pathogenic microorganisms, anti-tumor, and liver protection [5][6][7]. Therefore, Baizhi attracted wide scientific attention [8][9][10].…”
