Scutellarein-7-O-β-D-glucuronide (SG) and apigenin-7-O-β-D-glucuronide (AG) are two major bioactive constituents with known pharmacological effects inErigeron multiradiatus. In this study, a simple method for preparative separation of the two flavone glucuronides was established with macroporous resins. The performance and adsorption characteristics of eight macroporous resins including AB-8, HPD100, HPD450, HPD600, D100, D101, D141, and D160 have been evaluated. The results confirmed that D141 resin offered the best adsorption and desorption capacities and the highest desorption ratio for the two glucuronides among the tested resins. Sorption isotherms were constructed for D141 resin under optimal ethanol conditions and fitted well to the Freundlich and Langmuir models (R2>0.95). Dynamic adsorption and desorption tests was performed on column packed with D141 resin. After one-run treatment with D141 resin, the two-constituent content in the final product was increased from 2.14% and 1.34 % in the crude extract ofErigeron multiradiatusto 24.63% and 18.42% in the final products with the recoveries of 82.5% and 85.4%, respectively. The preparative separation of SG and AG can be easily and effectively achieved via adsorption and desorption on D141 resin, and the method developed can be referenced for large-scale separation and purification of flavone glucuronides from herbal raw materials.

Syringopicroside is the major constituent inFolium syringaeleaves with known pharmacological activities. In this study, a simple method for preparative separation of syringopicroside fromF. syringaeleaves with macroporous resins was developed. Adsorption characteristics of syringopicroside on six types of macroporous resins, including ADS-8, ADS-17, D141, NKA-9, HPD450, and HPD600, have been compared, among which D141 resin showed the best adsorption and desorption capacities for syringopicroside. Adsorption isotherms were used to D141 resin at different temperatures and fitted well to Langmuir and Freundlich equations. Dynamic adsorption and desorption tests were performed on D141 resin-packed column to optimize the separation process of syringopicroside. After one run with D141 resin, the content of syringopicroside was increased 24-fold from 2.32% to 55.74% with a recovery yield of 92.16%. The chromatographic process optimized in this work avoids toxic organic solvent and, thus, is a promising basis for large-scale preparation of syringopicroside.

In order to enrich and separate three coumarins (columbianetin acetate, osthole and columbianadin) from Angelicae Pubescentis Radix (APR), an efficient method was established by combining macroporous resins (MARs) with preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (PHPLC). Five different macroporous resins (D101, AB-8, DA-201, HP-20 and GDX-201) were used to assess the adsorption and desorption characteristics of three coumarins. The result demonstrated that HP-20 resin possessed the best adsorption and desorption capacities for these three coumarins. Moreover, the adsorption dynamics profiles of three coumarins were well fitted to the pseudo second order equation (R2 > 0.99) for the HP-20 resin. The adsorption process was described by the three isotherms models including Langmuir (R2 > 0.98, 0.046 ≤ RL ≤ 0.103), Freundlich (R2 > 0.99, 0.2748 ≤ 1/n ≤ 0.3103) and Dubinin Radushkevich (R2 > 0.97). The contents of columbianetin acetate, osthole and columbianadin in the product were increased 10.69-fold, 19.98-fold and 19.68-fold after enrichment, respectively. Three coumarins were further purified by PHPLC and the purities of them reached above 98%. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory effects of these three coumarins were assessed by Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells. It was found that the production of NO and MCP-1 was obviously inhibited by three coumarins. Columbianetin acetate, osthole and columbianadin could be used as potentially natural anti-inflammatory ingredients in pharmaceutical products. It was concluded that the new method combining MARs with PHPLC was efficient and economical for enlarging scale separation and enrichment of columbianetin acetate, osthole and columbianadin with anti-inflammatory effect from the APR extract.

Introduction: Blueberries are rich sources of phenolic compounds and exhibit strong antioxidant activities and a wide variety of biological activities. Methods: Polyphenols were extracted from blueberry by solvent extraction method using ethanol solution. The purification of polyphenols from blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) by macroporous resin XAD-7HP was optimized by adsorption and desorption tests. The cellular antioxidant activities of the purified polyphenols were investigated. Results: The adsorption data indicated that the process was best explained by the Langmuir isotherm model. The best conditions were determined as: blueberry polyphenols concentration, 2.00 mg/g; pH 2.0; ethanol desorption solution concentration, 70 % (v/v); flow rates for feeding and elution, 1 and 2 bed volume (BV)/h, respectively; and a water wash volume of 3 BV. Under these conditions, the purity of the blueberry polyphenols was improved from 46.3 to 86.48 %. The EC50 (concentration for 50 % of maximal effect) and CAA (cellular antioxidant activity) values of the blueberry polyphenols were 151.58 mg/mL and 6.39 µmol QE /100 g sample, respectively.Conclusion: The results demonstrate that purification of polyphenols by macroporous resins XAD-7HP will provide foundation for the development of large-scale separation of blueberry polyphenols in industry.

Zingiberene, one of the five major sesquiterpene hydrocarbon which are rich in ginger essential oil, is a natural antioxidant and serves as antiviral and antifertility agent. An efficient preparative isolation process of zingiberene from ginger essential oil has been developed in the present study. The separation experiments have been carried out on an intermittent silica gel column chromatography. After the first run treatment with the chromatography, the zingiberene content in the final product was increased from 35.11% to 60.41%. Afterwards the concentration was purified by using the second silica gel column chromatography. The recovery for the combined procedure was 70.68%, with a final purity 72.93%.Therefore, the separation can be achieved easily and efficiently via the intermittent silica gel column chromatography, and the method will provided a potential approach for large-scale separation and purification of zingiberene for its wide pharmaceutical use.

Abstract Adsorption of black peanut skin anthocyanins, a natural pigment, onto various macroporous resins was optimized to develop a potential approach for large-scale production of black peanut skin anthocyanins. Seven different macroporous resins (AB-8, SP-207, LS-305A, HP-20, LS-305, DM-21 and LS-610B) were evaluated for the adsorption properties of the anthocyanins extracted from the black peanut skins of Arachis hypogaea L. The adsorption experiment proved that compared to AB-8, SP-207 and LS-305A, four resins, i.e., LS-610B, DM-21, LS-305 and HP-20 have relatively higher capacity of adsorbing black peanut skin anthocyanins from the aqueous solution, which are verified by the related adsorption experiments. The adsorption isotherm data was successfully described by Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order rate model simulates the kinetic process well. Column adsorption and desorption tests further proved DM-21 is a promising adsorbent for field applications to recover black peanut skin anthocyanins from aqueous solution. The overall yield of pigment product was 14% based on dried black peanut skin, and anthocyanins purity is at about 5.7% in the pigment product.

The Indonesian country which is famous for its tropical climate has now experienced a shift in two seasons (dry season and rainy season). This has an impact on cropping and harvesting systems among farmers. In large scale this is very influential considering that farmers in Indonesia are stilldependent on rainfall which results in soil moisture. Some types of plants that are very dependent on soil moisture will greatly require rainfall or water for growth and development. Through this research, researchers tried to make a prototype application for watering plants using ATMEGA328 microcontroller based soil moisture sensor. Development of application systems using the prototype method as a simple method which is the first step and can be developed again for large scale. The working principle of this prototype is simply that when soil moisture reaches a certainthreshold (above 56%) then the system will work by activating the watering system, if it is below 56% the system does not work or in other words soil moisture is considered sufficient for certain plant needs.
