Plumbagin quantification in roots of Plumbago scandens L. obtained by different extraction techniques

Abstract: The Plumbago genus belongs to the Plumbaginaceae family and it is known due to its variety of biological uses, most of them attributed to the presence of naphthoquinones. Plumbagin is a naturally occurring naphthoquinone that can be obtained from roots of Plumbago scandens L. In order to find out the better technique for plumbagin extraction, were applied: static maceration, dynamic maceration, with assistance of ultrasonic waves and in Soxhlet apparatus. Four compounds were qualitatively detected in all extra… Show more

“…Similarly, degradation and reduced content of plumbagin due to prolonged extraction time was reported in Plumbago scandens. [21] The results obtained from CSE do not show significant variation in amount of mangiferin with the increase of time period. CSE period when increased from 240 to 480 min the content of mangiferin decreased or remained constant (Table 2).…”

“…Um estudo fi toquímico das folhas mostrou, além da presença de cumarinas, fl avonóides, saponinas e taninos, sendo sua atividade antiinfl amatória e broncodilatadora demonstrada experimentalmente (Leal et al, 2000). Plumbago scandens L. (Louco) -A planta apresenta a naftoquinona plumbagina que demonstrou atividade anticâncer, leishmanicida e bactericida, sendo esta substância também efetiva contra insetos (Paiva et al, 2004) Sansevieria cylindrica Bojer (Rabo-de-tatu) -É relatada a presença de uma saponina esteroidal sem efeitos hemolíticos in vitro que demonstrou inibição na permeabilidade capilar (Antunes et al, 2003). Ximenia americana L. (Ameixa) -Tanto o extrato da casca, bem como das folhas e dos talos tiveram sua atividade fungicida comprovada experimentalmente (Omer;Elnima, 2003), porém pouco se sabe sobre sua composição química.…”

“…is known to have a regulatory property for blood circulation and inflammatory disease [1,2]. This natural product is one of the major drugs used in the Chinese traditional medicine Da Huang Zhe Chong pill to treat hepatic cirrhosis [3], atherosclerosis, and menstrual disturbance [4]; these actions are probably produced by pharmacodynamic activity on vascular system. Up to now, there have been only a few researches on the chemical componets of Tabanus bivittatus Mat.…”
