Phytoconstituents Isolation and Analysis Techniques
1. Terpenoids Analysis
- Menthol: Steam distillation & GC-MS analysis from mint oils
- Citral: Column chromatography isolation from lemongrass
- Artemisinin: HPLC quantification in Artemisia annua
2. Glycosides Study
- Glycyrhetinic Acid: Acid hydrolysis followed by TLC validation
- Rutin: UV-spectrophotometric quantification in buckwheat
3. Alkaloid Isolation
- Atropine: Soxhlet extraction from Belladonna roots
- Quinine: Column chromatography from Cinchona bark
- Reserpine: pH-dependent extraction from Rauwolfia
- Caffeine: Supercritical CO₂ extraction from tea leaves
4. Resin Analysis
- Podophyllotoxin: Flash chromatography from Mayapple resin
- Curcumin: Spectrofluorometric analysis in turmeric
Analytical Techniques Covered:
- Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) for preliminary screening
- High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for quantification
- Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) for volatile compounds
- Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) for structural elucidation
- UV-Vis Spectroscopy for concentration determination
The notes provide 500+ words of detailed protocols, safety precautions, and quality control parameters for each analytical method, along with industrial applications of these techniques in phytopharmaceutical manufacturing.
