Contribution of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography coupled to High Resolution Mass Spectrometry and UV detections for the analysis of a complex vegetable oil – Application for characterization of a Kniphofia uvaria extract

AbstractLipids are an important and diverse group of naturally occurring organic compounds present in all biological entities. They play many essential roles in the survival of the organisms. Analysis of lipids is extremely complex due to their large variety of chemistries. In this work, we describe an innovative method for the characterization of the lipid composition in a complex and unknown vegetable oil: an extract of Kniphofia uvaria seeds; using Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) coupled to Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI), High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) and UV detections. Thanks to the properties of supercritical CO2 allowing the use of a large number of chromatographic columns, an effective separation for this complex matrix was obtained

Flavonol glycosides and lignans from the leaves of Opilia amentacea

International audienceTwo previously undescribed flavonol tetraglycosides, isorhamnetin-3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (1) and isorhamnetin-3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-galactopyranoside (2), along with nine known compounds including seven flavonoids and two lignans, were isolated from the leaves of Opilia amentacea Roxb (Opiliaceae). Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of compounds 1–11 was evaluated. In addition, all compounds were evaluated for their tyrosinase inhibitions by using in vitro mushroom tyrosinase assay. Only 5,5-dimethoxylariciresinol-4-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (10) and eleutheroside E1 (11) exhibited significant tyrosinase inhibition (IC50 42.1 and 28 μM, respectively) and DPPH radical scavenging activity (IC50 85.1 and 42.1 μM, respectively) compared with the positive controls
