Hawthorn wine is rich in anthocyanins, polyphenols, flavonoids and other macromolecular substances, which results in difficulty to rapidly determine organic acids in the wine. An enzymatic method is accurate but expensive and not able to quantify all of the organic acids simultaneously. Therefore, in this study, two HPLC methods were applied to quantify the organic acids in the wine with the enzymatic method as a reference. Seven organic acids were found with the enzymatic method including citric, succinic, l-malic, acetic, lactic, pyruvic, and fumaric acids, in which citric and succinic acid accounted for more than 80% of the total acids. By an 87H column equipped with DAD (diode array) detector at 215 nm (HPLC method 1), only citric and lactic acids were quantified accurately and the elution period was shortened from 100 min to 20 min by removing the impurity in the sample with a LC-18 SPE(solid-phase extraction) tube. While citric, succinic, l-malic, acetic, pyruvic, and fumaric acids were quantified reliably by a dC18 column equipped with DAD detector at 210 nm (HPLC method 2), with the sample requires only dilution and filtration before injection. It was suggested that HPLC method 2 was an effective method to quantify the organic acids in hawthorn wine. The method provides a choice for accurate quantification of organic acids in hawthorn wine or other drinks, and would be helpful for controlling the quality of hawthorn wine.

Abstract Objectives Curcumin belongs to the family of curcuminoids, natural polyphenolic compounds that possesses neuroprotective properties, anti inflammatory and anticancer. Its entrapment in the developed casein-based micellar powder (CMP) and poloxamer-based micellar powder (PMP) was to enhance the solubility and improve the bioavailability. Henceforth, the present study aimed to acquire an efficient analytical method for the curcumin analysis in polymeric micellar formulations. Methods A fast and specific HPLC method was developed for analyzing curcumin in two different micellar matrices using casein and poloxamer. The HPLC was equipped with a C18 column (250 × 4 mm, 5 µm) and diode array detector. A designated isocratic elution of curcumin was employed using mobile phase with a composition of water (1%, v/v acetic acid) and acetonitrile in a ratio of 50:50 v/v. The employed flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and the analyte was examined at 421 nm. Results An effective analysis in HPLC was successfully achieved by the predetermined HPLC condition. A good resolution of peaks at the employed flow rate was achieved. The linearity was excellent in two different range of concentrations, 2–20 and 10–50 μg/mL. The selectivity, accuracy and precision fulfilled the acceptable requirements. Conclusions The developed method was practically effective to qualitatively identified curcumin. In addition, the assay also effectively quantified the amount of curcumin in the polymeric entrapping matrices which demonstrates that it has great potential to be used in natural compound analysis.

The quality of grapes is determined above all by the contents of the primary and secondary metabolites. The primary metabolites involve sugars and organic acids, and just these compounds are dealt with in this study. Its objective was to analyse and critically evaluate the primary metabolites in new interspecific varieties and, based on a comparison with European varieties of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), to find out the similarities and also possible differences between them. The study evaluates and compares 4 conventional varieties of Vitis vinifera with 11 new interspecific cultivars. The contents and compositions of the individual sugars and acids were estimated by means of the HPLC method. Most of these varieties belong to the group with either medium or low content of malic acid, i.e. with a medium to high β ratio. This corroborates the similarity of interspecific varieties to those of V. vinifera. The cluster analysis identified the existence of two interesting groups of varieties: the first one involved the varieties Riesling, Nativa, Marlen, and Kofranka while the other group consisted of varieties Blaufränkisch, Blauer Portugieser, and Laurot. This observation also indicates similarity between Vitis vinifera L. varieties and interspecific cultivars and demonstrates that the contents of the primary metabolites (i.e. sugars and organic acids) are also comparable.

Abstract Amrinone (AMR), a bipyridine derivative, is receiving increasing use in postoperative cardiac patients as an inotrope and vasodilator. The hemodynamic response to amrinone in adults is linearly related to AMR concentrations, warranting therapeutic drug monitoring. We report a rapid microsample HPLC method for monitoring AMR and its principal metabolites, N-acetyl (N-ac) and N-glycolyl (N-gly) AMR. Serum was precipitated with acetonitrile, and the supernatant fluid was then injected into a C18 narrow-bore column. The mobile phase consisted of a 0.1 mol/L sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6) with a gradient of acetonitrile going from 50 to 100 mL/L of eluent. Detection with a diode-array detector (DAD) concurrently monitored the absorbances at 320 and 345 nm. Monitoring 320 nm allows optimal quantification of AMR, N-gly, and N-ac. Patients often receive concurrent cephalosporin therapy, which is detectable at 320 nm but not 345 nm. Because cephalosporins coelute with AMR or metabolites, monitoring at 345 nm allows separation of these antibiotics from AMR and metabolites while retaining a detection limit of 0.5 mg/L.

Phytoecdysteroids are natural compounds with therapeutic benefits in both humans and animals. The effectiveness of natural products with health potential is based on the activities and potencies of their active ingredients. In this study, dominant ecdysteroids—ajugasterone C, 20-hydroxyecdysone and polypodine B—from the Serratula coronata (S. coronata) herb were separated by column chromatography, identified by spectroscopic data and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). The obtained concentration of ecdysteroids (approximately 23%) in the S. coronatae herb extract enhances the possibility of their use in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products with high levels of phytoecdysteroids. Moreover, this study has shown a positive effect of ecdysteroids-containing cream on changes in quality of life and a beneficial effect in reducing the symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis. It has been demonstrated that the application of the cream with phytoecdysteroids resulted in a statistically significant alleviation of symptoms (p < 0.05), especially in terms of itching, pain or burning sensations in the affected areas in comparison to previous symptoms.

Online solid-phase extraction-liquid chromatography (online SPE-LC) with diode array detector (DAD) was used to obtain the chromatographic fingerprint of bioactive compounds of pineapple (Ananas comosus L.). The extracts from 40 samples of three different varieties of pineapple (Morris, MD2, and Josaphine) were obtained using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) prior to separation using online SPE-LC. The SPE-LC method was optimized and validated and applied to 40 pineapple samples of those three varieties. Seven bioactive compounds identified include catechin, epicatechin, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, quercetin, myricetin, and bromelain. For varietal discrimination, the relative areas of 16 selected peaks were subjected to chemometric techniques. The three pineapple varieties were successfully discriminated using cluster analysis (CA) and principal component analysis (PCA).
