AB  - Introduction: Chokeberry is a plant belonging to the family Rosaceae which has a long history of edible and medicinal use. The aims of this study are: i) to investigate of HPTLC profile of the berry samples using HPTLC technique based metabolomics approach, ii) to determine the botanical origin of investigated chokeberry adulterations iii) to identify the most important botanical markers responsible for classification. Methods: A simple, rapid, and high-throughput planar chromatography (HPTLC) method was applied in combination with multivariate techniques for differentiating chokeberry samples and identification of the main metabolites of chokeberry and four common adulterants. Images of HPTLC chromatograms obtained using two different detections i.e. visible light and derivatization with natural products reagent were used as a dataset for multivariate analysis. Results: Principal component analysis and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis confirmed the discrimination of five botanically different samples and recognized their main markers such as responsible for differences between chokeberry and four common adulterants. Conclusion: The obtained results showed that the HPTLC-based metabolomics approach can be a very reliable technique for the detection of chokeberry adulteration.

AB  - Gentian (Gentiana lutea L., Gentianaceae) root extract (GRE) is used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. However, its bioactive potential is limited in conventional forms due to the low bioavailability and short elimination half-life of the dominant bioactive compound, gentiopicroside. The aim of study was to encapsulate GRE in the lipid-based gastroretentive delivery system that could provide high yield and encapsulation efficiency, as well as the biphasic release of gentiopicroside from the tablets obtained by direct compression. Solid lipid microparticles (SLM) loaded with GRE were prepared by freeze-drying double (W/O/W) emulsions, which were obtained by a multiple emulsion–melt dispersion technique, with GRE as the inner water phase, Gelucire® 39/01 or 43/01, as lipid components, with or without the addition of porous silica (Sylysia® 350) in the outer water phase. Formulated SLM powders were examined by SEM and mercury intrusion porosimetry, as well as by determination of yield, encapsulation efficiency, and flow properties. Furthermore, in vitro dissolution of gentiopicroside, the size of the dispersed systems, mechanical properties, and mucoadhesion of tablets obtained by direct compression were investigated. The results have revealed that SLM with the macroporous structure were formulated, and, consequently, the powders floated immediately in the acidic medium. Formulation with porous silica (Sylysia® 350) and Gelucire® 43/01 as a solid lipid was characterized with the high yield end encapsulation efficiency. Furthermore, the mucoadhesive properties of tablets obtained by direct compression of that formulation, as well as the biphasic release of gentiopicroside, presence of nanoassociates in dissolution medium, and optimal mechanical properties indicated that a promising lipid-based gastroretentive system for GRE was developed.

AB  - Mahonia aquifolium and its secondary metabolites have been shown to have anticancer potential. We performed MTT, scratch, and colony formation assays; analyzed cell cycle phase distribution and doxorubicin uptake and retention with flow cytometry; and detected alterations in the expression of genes involved in the formation of cell-cell interactions and migration using quantitative real-time PCR following treatment of lung adenocarcinoma cells with doxorubicin, M. aquifolium extracts, or their combination. MTT assay results suggested strong synergistic effects of the combined treatments, and their application led to an increase in cell numbers in the subG1 phase of the cell cycle. Both extracts were shown to prolong doxorubicin retention time in cancer cells, while the application of doxorubicin/extract combination led to a decrease in MMP9 expression. Furthermore, cells treated with doxorubicin/extract combinations were shown to have lower migratory and colony formation potentials than untreated cells or cells treated with doxorubicin alone. The obtained results suggest that nontoxic M. aquifolium extracts can enhance the activity of doxorubicin, thus potentially allowing the application of lower doxorubicin doses in vivo, which may decrease its toxic effects in normal tissues.

AB  - Perennial plant Gentiana lutea L. is used worldwide for the preparation of pharmaceutical and food products. Health benefits of G. lutea roots are associated with the presence of major bitter-tasting secoiridoid gentiopicroside and xanthone isogentisin. The aim was to optimize the heat-assisted extraction of gentipicroside (GP), isogentisin (ISG) and total phenolics (TP) from G. lutea roots and develop models with high accuracy and prediction capacity by response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural networks (ANN). Extracts were prepared according to central composite design. Significant independent variables which were previously identified by Plackett-Burman screening design were varied at five levels - temperature (20−80 °C), time (8−180 min), solid-to-solvent ratio (1:10−1:50) and ethanol concentration (10–70 %). Contents of GP, ISG (by HPLC-DAD) and TP (by Folin–Ciocalteu method) were analyzed. The optimal conditions for the extraction were temperature of 65 °C, time of 129.08 min, solid-to-solvent ratio of 1:40, and ethanol concentration 49.33 %. Under these conditions, experimentally obtained results for GP (18.03 mg/g dw), ISG (8.15 mg/g dw) and TP (17.46 mg of gallic acid equivalents/g dw) content were in agreement with the values predicted by RSM and ANN. Comparison of models through the coefficient of determination (R2) and the root mean square error (RMSE) showed that ANN approach was superior to RSM in predicting and modelling GP, ISG and TP content, simultaneously. Effective heat-assisted extraction method for the extraction of GP, ISG and TP from the roots of G. lutea was designed, and models with high accuracy and good prediction capacity were developed.

AB  - Purpose: Sea macroalgae are an important source of biologically highly valuable compounds. The main aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro anticancer properties and chemical composition of the dichloromethane-methanol extract and three fractions of the Fucus spiralis from coastline of Morocco. Methods: Fractions were made from dichloromethane: methanol (1:1) extract of Fucus spiralis: petroleum-ether, ethyl-acetate and n-butanol. Extract and fractions were screened for in vitro cytotoxicity by MTT assay against human cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa), colorectal adenocarcinoma (LS-174T), lung carcinoma (A549), and normal human lung fibroblasts (MRC-5). Cell cycle distribution of the HeLa cells was evaluated using flow cytometry. Acridine orange (AO)-ethidium bromide (EB) staining was used to assess morphological changes of HeLa cells under fluorescence microscope. Anti-migration and anti-angiogenic properties were investigated using scratch and tube formation assays against human endothelium-derived permanent EA.hy926 cell line. Antidiabetic activity was tested using anti-α-glucosidase assay. Antimicrobial effect was tested using micro- dilution method. Results: Petroleum-ether fraction оf Fucus spiralis rich in fatty acids exerted the highest cytotoxicity against HeLa cells. Ethyl-acetate and petroleum-ether fractions induced the highest accumulation of the HeLa cells in sub-G1 and G2/M phases. Extract and fractions showed proapoptotic effect on HeLa cells under fluorescent microscope. They exhibited antimigratory and antiangiogenic effects in vitro. IC50 value for α-glucosidase inhibitory activity was much stronger than standard acarbose. n-Butanol fraction exerted the highest antibacterial and antifungal activity. Conclusions: The investigation of various biological activities of the extract and fractions obtained from Fucus spiralis may suggest a promising anticancer and pharmacological potential of this edible macroalga.

AB  - A comparative analysis of the phenolic compounds in the 70% EtOH extracts of Hypericum acutum, H. androsaemum, H. barbatum, H hirsutum, H maculatum, and H richeri has been carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array UV detection and high resolution TOF mass spectrometry. Quercetin, astilbin, I3,II8-biapigenin, orientin, 2"-O-acetylorientin, three phenolcarboxylic acids, and eight flavonols 3-O-glycosides were identified in the extracts on the basis of their on-line UV spectra, accurate mass spectral data, and in comparison of retention times with those from the standards. Fingerprint analysis of the extracts revealed significant differences in the qualitative and quantitative chemical composition of the studied species. Antioxidant assays with various reaction mechanisms were used including ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, DPPH, ABTS, superoxide anion radical scavenging capacity and inhibition of liposome peroxidation induced by Fe2+. The most potent were extracts of H acutum and H maculatum indicating this Hypericum species interesting for further research aimed as a potentially new source of biologically active compounds.

AB  - Traditional maceration method was used for the extraction of polyphenols from chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) dried fruit, and the effects of several extraction parameters on the total phenolics and anthocyanins contents were studied. Various solvents, particle size, solid solvent ratio and extraction time have been investigated as independent variables in two level factorial design. Among examined variables, time was not statistically important factor for the extraction of polyphenols. The optimal extraction conditions were maceration of 0.75 mm size berries by 50% ethanol, with solid solvent ratio of 1:20, and predicted values were 27.7 mg GAE/g for total phenolics and 0.27% for total anthocyanins. Under selected conditions, the experimental total phenolics were 27.8 mg GAE/g, and total anthocyanins were 0.27%, which is in agreement with the predicted values. In addition, a complementary quantitative analysis of individual phenolic compounds was performed using HPLC method. The study indicated that maceration was effective and simple technique for the extraction of bioactive compounds from chokeberry fruit.

AB  - Chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) is a rich source of polyphenols with confirmed health benefits. Microencapsulation tehnique is a promising tool for improving its polyphenols functionality, stability and bioavailability. Electrostatic extrusion process was carried out to obtain microbeads with encapsulated chokeberry extract. The effects of the carrier type (alginate of low and medium viscosity), addition of inulin as filler, and the needle diameter (18, 20, 22 gauges) on the morphological characteristics and release properties of the microbeads were studied. Particles obtained with medium viscosity alginate carrier (1.5% w/v), using inulin as filler (5% w/v) and medium needle size (20 gauges) showed the best results in the release studies. Drying process affected the encapsulation efficiency, the amount of encapsulated polyphenols increased from 0.24 mg GAE/g in hydrogel beads to 3.57 mg GAE/g in freeze dried beads, and the release profile of encapsulated extracts was prolonged to 40 min. SEM micrographs confirmed that the addition of inulin as filler improved the final properties of the microbeads, while FTIR analysis showed that the extract was successfully incorporated into the particles. Due to the extended storage and stability, dry microbeads showed the best potential as a delivery system suitable for pharmaceutical or functional food industry.

AB  - Methanol and 70% acetone extracts from Veronica jacquinii, Veronica urticifolia and Veronica teucrium were evaluated regarding their neuroprotective/antioxidant effects on the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line. All extracts exhibited modest protective activity by increasing cell survival in cells stressed with sodium nitroprusside (9-12%) and hydrogen peroxide (16-21%) compared to non-treated cells. These activities were accompanied by reductions in the amount of superoxide radicals and index of lipid peroxidation. Extracts were further analysed for the content of total phenolics, phenylpropanoid glycosides and iridoids, and the major compounds acteoside and aucubin. The highest amount of total phenolics was observed in V. jacquinii, while V. teucrium was richest in total iridoids, acteoside and aucubin. Angiogenic properties on EA.hy926 human endothelial cells were also examined. At the highest non-toxic concentration (25 mu g/ml), the tested extracts inhibited spontaneous tube formation of endothelial cells on the extracellular matrix, implying their possible antiangiogenic activity. The most potent inhibitory effects were shown by methanol extract of V. jacquinii and aqueous acetone extract of V. teucrium. The extracts did not significantly change the adhesive or migratory capacity of EA.hy926 cells. Considering the traditional use of Veronica species, these results suggest a need for further assessment of their supposed wound-healing properties.

AB  - Aerial parts of some Veronica species are used as traditional medicine for treatment of various inflammatory conditions, including rheumatism. In the present study, phenolic content and anti-inflammatory activity of three Veronica species (Plantaginaceae), Veronica jacquinii Baumg., Veronica teucrium L. and Veronica urticifolia Jacq was studied. The identification and quantification of 30 phenolic compounds in aqueous-acetone extracts were performed using LC-MS/MS technique, and the main components were baicalin, hyperoside, isoquercetine, chlorogenic acid and quinic acid. Genistein and baicalein were detected for the first time in Plantaginaceae family and Veronica genus, respectively. The anti-inflammatory potential of tested extracts was determined using calcium ionophore-stimulated human platelets as a source of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) enzymes, and highly sensitive and specific LC-MS/MS technique was performed for detection of the main arachidonic acid metabolites formed by them. V. urticifolia extract exerted the strongest COX-1 inhibition (IC50  lt  0.4 mg/mL), while V. jacquinii extract exhibited the highest ability to inhibit 12-LOX activity (IC50 = 1.072 mg/mL). The results obtained in this study may be used to promote better use of the genus Veronica as anti-inflammatory agents.

AB  - Nowdays, the use of products based on medicinal herbs (phytopreparates) are in scientific focus, both in prevention or in treatment of various diseases. Herbal products have been recognized as an excellent source of bioactive compounds which have positive effects on human health. Beside teas, as standard herbal products, phytopreparations are much more represented as final pharmaceutical form on the market today. Phytopreparations must satisfy standard quality, which means that they must be physically, chemically and microbiological stable and have a high degree of purity. In order to determine the stability, storage conditions, shelf-life of the products, stability tests are conducted, which involving tests of environmental factors influence: temperature, relative humidity, light. Stability tests are performed at different stages of development and production. In accordance with the EMEA (European Agency for Drugs and Medical Devices) for a variety of herbal preparations different specific stability tests are conducted.
AB  - Danas, sve je veći akcenat na upotrebi preparata na bazi lekovitog bilja (fitopreparata), kako u prevenciji tako i u lečenju različitih oboljenja. Biljni preparati su prepoznati kao odličan izvor bioaktivnih komponenti, koji imaju pozitivne efekte na zdravlje ljudi.

AB  - In recent years, drug delivery systems are especially interesting because they allow therapeutic efficiency and reduce side effects. Conjugates of hyaluronic acid and chemotherapeutic agents, especially taxol, have been recognized as excellent solution for many therapeutic indications. The aim of conjugation of taxol with hyaluronic acid was the toxicity reduction on healthy cells and increase of selectivity on tumor cells. Hyaluronic acid could be used in various pharmaceutical preparations, also in parenteral, because of its biocompatibility and biodegradability. Hyaluronic acid as a carrier belongs to in situ gelling systems, which is passing a phase transition in response to external conditions such as temperature, different pH value or the presence of ions, enabling prolonged effect of the drug substances. Many tumor cells have a large number of receptors for hyaluronic acid, which has a great affinity for the tumor cells. The incorporation of taxol in gelling system of hyaluronic acid provides sustained drug release, increased anticancer activity, reduced damage of healthy cells and increased selectivity on cancer cells.
AB  - Preparati sa produženim oslobađanjem su poslednjih godina posebno aktuelni jer omogućavaju veću terapijsku efikasnost, smanjuju pojavu neželjenih efekata i omogućavaju ciljano delovanje. Posebno su poslednjih godina interesantni konjugati hijaluronske kiseline i citostatika, a jedan od njih je i taksol, koji pored mnogobrojnih terapijskih indikacija ispoljava i niz neželjenih efekata. Cilj konjugovanja taksola sa hijaluronskom kiselinom je smanjenje toksičnosti na zdravim i povećanje selektivnosti na tumorskim ćelijama. Hijaluronska kiselina se može primenjivati u različitim farmaceutskim preparatima, pa i u parenteralnim, jer ima niz prednosti kao što su biokompatibilnost i biodegradibilnost. Spada u in situ gelirajuće sisteme koji se podvrgavaju faznom prelazu u odgovoru na spoljne stimulanse kao što su temperatura, pH ili prisustvo jona, čime se omogućava produženo dejstvo lekovite supstance. Mnoge tumorske ćelije pokazuju ekspresiju velikog broja receptora za hijaluronsku kiselinu, pa ona ima veliki afinitet za tumorske ćelije. Inkorporiranjem taksola u gelirajući sistem sa hijaluronskom kiselinom omogućava se postepeno oslobađanje leka, povećanje antikancerskog delovanja, smanjuje se oštećenje zdravih ćelija i povećava selektivnost leka.

AB  - Berry fruits are a rich source of polyphenols, especially anthocyanins: well-known potent anti-oxidant phytochemicals. The purpose of this study was to evaluate beneficial effects of long-term consumption of polyphenol-rich organic chokeberry juice on different markers of antioxidant/pro-oxidant status in healthy female volunteers. Twenty-nine women, aged 25-49, were included in the study. Serological markers of oxidative stress and antioxidant defence, blood pressure, routine biochemical, and anthropometric parameters were analyzed at baseline and after twelve weeks of regular chokeberry juice consumption. Significant decrease in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances level (TBARS; P  lt  .001) and pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB; P  lt  .05), as well as increase in paroxonase-1 activity toward diazoxon (P  lt  .01) were found. Total oxidative status and sulphydryl groups levels were not significantly influenced by the intervention. Anthropometric, biochemical parameters, and blood pressure values were within the referent values for all subjects and were not influenced by the chokeberry juice consumption. However, we found positive correlation between age, body mass index, waist circumference, body fat percent, blood pressure, and analyzed marker of lipid peroxidation, which was influenced by the consumption. In conclusion, the fine modulation of several antioxidant/pro-oxidant status biomarkers observed in healthy subjects indicates putative prophylactic effects of polyphenol-rich chokeberry juice and supports its importance as part of an optimal diet.

AB  - Anthocyanins are a group of over 500 different compounds that cause red, purple and blue colours of many plants, especially fruits, vegetables and cereals. Anthocyanins structurally belong to flavones. Mainly fruit is considered the main source of anthocyanins, although they are present in vegetables, roots, bulbs, fruit pulps, pulses and cereals. Huge diversity of anthocyanins, which can be found in nature makes them very complex and interesting group. In plants anthocyanins are present in the form of heterosides. Aglycone anthocyanins are known as anthocyanins. In nature there is 6 well known anthocyanins: pelargonidin, cyanidin, peonidin, delphinidin, malvidin and petunidin. Pelargonidin as stable anthocyanins is the most frequent in nature. The glycoside derivatives of the most widespread in nature are 3-monoside, 3.5 and 3.7 biosides. Interest for anthocyanins is growing over the past few years due to their potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry, the food and cosmetic industries. Despite their great potential, their use is still limited because of their relative instability and the low percentage of extracting from the plant material. Anthocyanins are quite reactive and unstable compounds. They transform reversibly with pH changes. pH is defined as the greatest cause of instability of anthocyanins, and has the greatest impact on colour. Anthocyanins are polar molecules and the most efficient solvent for extraction are the mixture of polar solvent such as ethanol, methanol and acetone. Extraction methods for anthocyanins isolation are not selective because solvents extracted anthocyanins with ballast and the great number of substances such as sugars and organic acids. Because of that, it is necessary to implement a new purification techniques, such as solid phase extraction (SPE), liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), countercurrent chromatography (CCC), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Identification of anthocyanins play a key role in the taxonomy and evaluate the quality of herbal drugs and foods containing anthocyanins. Reversed phase RP- HPLC connected to a photodiode (DAD detector) is the most used method for detection and identification of anthocyanins. Sample preparation for HPLC analysis usually involves acid hydrolysis of anthocyanins to release anthocyanidins. Anthocyanins may be quantified using any purified standard, but most commonly used is standard of cyanidin-3-glucoside, and quantification is carried out at a wavelength of 520 nm. The method of choice for the rapid screening of total anthocyanins in vegetables and fruits is spectrophotometric determination at 528 nm, with a controlled pH. This method works very well, when the assessment is required and not the accuracy of the quantification. Anthocyanins are poorly absorbed and metabolised to the same extent as other flavonoids, which are considered to have low bioavailability. Examination of bioavailability for most of the anthocyanins was carried out on animals. Most studies have shown maximum concentration in blood after 15min-2h. Interest in anthocyanins has especially grown in recent years due to their positive effects on health. Anthocyanins are effective for chronic diseases, especially in cardiovascular diseases. Together with the other nutritional ingredients are important because of their antioxidant ability, suggesting their potential application in the prevention of several diseases which are associated with oxidative stress. Some plants with high content of anthocyanins play a role in the prevention of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis as inhibitors. Extracts obtained from berries have the highest potential for the removal free radicals. Antioxidant activity of them is proportional to the content of anthocyanins.
AB  - Antocijani su grupa od preko 500 različitih jedinjenja koja uzrokuju crvenu, ljubičastu i plavu boju mnogih biljaka, a posebno voća, povrća i žitarica. Antocijani strukturno pripadaju flavonima. Uglavnom se voće smatra glavnim izvorom antocijana, mada su oni prisutni i u povrću, korenju, lukovicama, pulpama plodova, mahunarkama i žitaricama. Ogromna raznovrsnost antocijana koja može da se nađe u prirodi čini ih veoma složenom i interesantnom grupom. U biljnim vrstama su prisutni u vidu heterozida. Aglikoni antocijana poznati su kao antocijanidini, a u prirodi je do sad poznato 6 antocijanidina: pelargonidin, cijanidin, peonidin, delfinidin, petunidin i malvidin. Pelargonidin kao najstabilniji antocijanidin je i najviše zastupljen u prirodi. U glikozidne derivate najviše rasprostranjene u prirodi spadaju 3-monozidi, 3,5 biozidi i 3,7 diglukozidi. Interesovanje za antocijane je sve veće proteklih par godina, zbog njihove potencijalne primene u farmaceutskoj industriji, industriji hrane i kozmetičkoj industriji. Uprkos tome njihova upotreba je i dalje ograničena zbog njihove relativne nestabilnosti i niskom procentu ekstrahovanja iz biljnog materijala. Antocijani su reaktivna i dosta nestabilna jedinjenja. Reverzibilno trpe strukturne transformacije sa promenom pH što ima najveći uticaj na boju. pH je određen kao uzročnik najveće nestabilnosti antocijana, i od pH u najvećoj meri zavisi njihova pigmentacija. Antocijani su polarni molekuli tako da su se kao najefikasniji rastvarači za ekstrakciju pokazale smeše polarnih rastvarača kao što su etanol, metanol i aceton. Metode ekstrakcije koje se koriste za izolovanje antocijana nisu selektivne jer pored antocijana ekstrahuje se i veliki broj balastnih materija kao što su šećeri i organske kiseline. Neophodno je implementirati nove tehnike prečišćavanja, kao što su ekstrakcije na čvrstoj fazi (SPE), ekstrakcije tečno-tečno (LLE), kao i korišćenje sofisticiranih hromatografskih tehnika kao što su protivstrujna hromatografija (CCC), i visoko efikasna tečna hromatografija (HPLC). Identifikacija antocijana ima ključnu ulogu u taksonomiji, i proceni kvaliteta biljnih droga i hrane koja sadrži antocijane. Reverzno fazna RP-HPLC povezana sa fotodiodom (DAD detektor) je najviše korišćena metoda za identifikaciju i određivanje antocijana. Priprema uzoraka za HPLC analizu uglavnom podrazumeva kiselu hidrolizu antocijana da bi se oslobodili antocijanidini. Antocijani mogu biti kvantifikovani preko bilo kog prečišćenog standarda, ali najčešće se kao standard koristi cijanidin-3-glikozid, a kvantifikacija se vrši na talasnoj dužini od 520 nm. Metoda izbora za brz skrining ukupnih antocijana u povrću i voću je spektrofotometrijsko određivanje na 528 nm, pri kontrolisanoj pH. Ova metoda funkcioniše veoma dobro gde je potrebna procena, a ne preciznost kvantifikacije. Antocijani se slabo resorbuju i ne metabolišu se u istom stepenu kao drugi flavonoidi, zbog čega se smatra da imaju malu bioraspoloživost. Ispitivanje bioraspoloživosti antocijana uglavnom je vršeno je na životinjama. Većina studija je pokazala da dostižu maksimalnu koncentraciju u krvi nakon 15 min - 2h. Zainteresovanost za antocijane je posebno porasla poslednjih godina zbog njihovih pozitivnih efekata na zdravlje. Deluju kod hroničnih bolesti, a u prvom redu kod kardiovaskularnih oboljenja. Oni su zajedno sa ostalim flavonoidima važni nutritivni sastojci zbog svojih antioksidativnih sposobnosti, sto ukazuje na njihovu potencijalnu primenu u prevenciji nekoliko bolesti koje su povezane sa oksidativnim stresom. Neke biljke sa visokim sadržajem antocijana imaju ulogu u prevenciji mutageneze i inhibitori su kancerogeneze. Ekstrakti dobijeni iz bobičastog voća imaju najveći potencijal uklanjanja slobodnih radikala i kod njih je antioksidativna aktivnost proporcionalna sadržaju antocijana.

Interest in anthocyanins has especially grown in recent years due to their positive effects on health. Anthocyanins are effective for chronic diseases, especially in cardiovascular diseases. Together with the other nutritional ingredients are important because of their antioxidant ability, suggesting their potential application in the prevention of several diseases which are associated with oxidative stress. Some plants with high content of anthocyanins play a role in the prevention of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis as inhibitors. Extracts obtained from berries have the highest potential for the removal free radicals. Antioxidant activity of them is proportional to the content of anthocyanins., Antocijani su grupa od preko 500 različitih jedinjenja koja uzrokuju crvenu, ljubičastu i plavu boju mnogih biljaka, a posebno voća, povrća i žitarica. Antocijani strukturno pripadaju flavonima. Uglavnom se voće smatra glavnim izvorom antocijana, mada su oni prisutni i u povrću, korenju, lukovicama, pulpama plodova, mahunarkama i žitaricama. Ogromna raznovrsnost antocijana koja može da se nađe u prirodi čini ih veoma složenom i interesantnom grupom. U biljnim vrstama su prisutni u vidu heterozida. Aglikoni antocijana poznati su kao antocijanidini, a u prirodi je do sad poznato 6 antocijanidina: pelargonidin, cijanidin, peonidin, delfinidin, petunidin i malvidin. Pelargonidin kao najstabilniji antocijanidin je i najviše zastupljen u prirodi. U glikozidne derivate najviše rasprostranjene u prirodi spadaju 3-monozidi, 3,5 biozidi i 3,7 diglukozidi. Interesovanje za antocijane je sve veće proteklih par godina, zbog njihove potencijalne primene u farmaceutskoj industriji, industriji hrane i kozmetičkoj industriji. Uprkos tome njihova upotreba je i dalje ograničena zbog njihove relativne nestabilnosti i niskom procentu ekstrahovanja iz biljnog materijala. Antocijani su reaktivna i dosta nestabilna jedinjenja. Reverzibilno trpe strukturne transformacije sa promenom pH što ima najveći uticaj na boju. pH je određen kao uzročnik najveće nestabilnosti antocijana, i od pH u najvećoj meri zavisi njihova pigmentacija. Antocijani su polarni molekuli tako da su se kao najefikasniji rastvarači za ekstrakciju pokazale smeše polarnih rastvarača kao što su etanol, metanol i aceton. Metode ekstrakcije koje se koriste za izolovanje antocijana nisu selektivne jer pored antocijana ekstrahuje se i veliki broj balastnih materija kao što su šećeri i organske kiseline. Neophodno je implementirati nove tehnike prečišćavanja, kao što su ekstrakcije na čvrstoj fazi (SPE), ekstrakcije tečno-tečno (LLE), kao i korišćenje sofisticiranih hromatografskih tehnika kao što su protivstrujna hromatografija (CCC), i visoko efikasna tečna hromatografija (HPLC). Identifikacija antocijana ima ključnu ulogu u taksonomiji, i proceni kvaliteta biljnih droga i hrane koja sadrži antocijane. Reverzno fazna RP-HPLC povezana sa fotodiodom (DAD detektor) je najviše korišćena metoda za identifikaciju i određivanje antocijana. Priprema uzoraka za HPLC analizu uglavnom podrazumeva kiselu hidrolizu antocijana da bi se oslobodili antocijanidini. Antocijani mogu biti kvantifikovani preko bilo kog prečišćenog standarda, ali najčešće se kao standard koristi cijanidin-3-glikozid, a kvantifikacija se vrši na talasnoj dužini od 520 nm. Metoda izbora za brz skrining ukupnih antocijana u povrću i voću je spektrofotometrijsko određivanje na 528 nm, pri kontrolisanoj pH. Ova metoda funkcioniše veoma dobro gde je potrebna procena, a ne preciznost kvantifikacije. Antocijani se slabo resorbuju i ne metabolišu se u istom stepenu kao drugi flavonoidi, zbog čega se smatra da imaju malu bioraspoloživost. Ispitivanje bioraspoloživosti antocijana uglavnom je vršeno je na životinjama. Većina studija je pokazala da dostižu maksimalnu koncentraciju u krvi nakon 15 min - 2h. Zainteresovanost za antocijane je posebno porasla poslednjih godina zbog njihovih pozitivnih efekata na zdravlje. Deluju kod hroničnih bolesti, a u prvom redu kod kardiovaskularnih oboljenja. Oni su zajedno sa ostalim flavonoidima važni nutritivni sastojci zbog svojih antioksidativnih sposobnosti, sto ukazuje na njihovu potencijalnu primenu u prevenciji nekoliko bolesti koje su povezane sa oksidativnim stresom. Neke biljke sa visokim sadržajem antocijana imaju ulogu u prevenciji mutageneze i inhibitori su kancerogeneze. Ekstrakti dobijeni iz bobičastog voća imaju najveći potencijal uklanjanja slobodnih radikala i kod njih je antioksidativna aktivnost proporcionalna sadržaju antocijana.",

AB  - The chemical composition and free radical scavenging properties of the MeOH extract of Hypericum richeri and its subsequent CHCl3, n-BuOH, EtOAc and aqueous extracts were investigated. Four quercetin-3-O-glycosides, three myricetin-3-O-glycosides, 3-O- and 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid, quercetin, I3,II8-biapigenin, pseudohypericin and hypericin were identified. The constituents of the extracts were quantified using HPLC-DAD (high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector). Isolation of the compounds from n-BuOH and EtOAc extracts was conducted by column chromatography. Antioxidant capacity of the extracts was evaluated by superoxide radical and ABTS root+ scavenging assays and inhibition of lipid peroxidation. The EtOAc extract of H. richeri was the most potent antioxidant in all experiments. Free radical scavenging compounds were identified by HPLC-DPPH root (high-performance liquid chromatography-2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) post-column derivatisation method, where all phenolic compounds except I3,II8-biapigenin exhibited radical scavenging properties. This is the first report of the presence of myricetin-3-O-rutinoside, myricetin-3-O-galactoside, myricetin-3-O-glucoside, 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid and I3,II8-biapigenin in H. richeri.

AB  - Oil extracts of flowering tops of Hypericum richeri Vill. prepared in three different ways were evaluated for chemical composition, and anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective activities. An HPLC method was developed for determination of two dominant flavonoids, quercetin and I3,II8-biapigenin. The carrageenan-induced rat paw edema test was used for screening the anti-inflammatory activity, while indomethacin-induced rat gastric mucosa damage test was used for evaluation of gastroprotective activity. The oil extract prepared by maceration with 96% ethanol, followed by extraction with sunflower oil by heating on a water bath, exhibited the highest anti-inflammatory (38.4 %) and gastroprotective activities (gastric damage score of 0.9). The same oil extract had the highest content of quercetin (49 mu g/mL) and I3,II8-biapigenin (60 mu g/mL). These results approve the usage of oil extracts of H. richeri as an anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective agent.

AB  - Gentiana dinarica Beck. (Gentianaceae) is a rare plant species growing at carbonate soils in subalpine and alpine regions. Acording to the Flora of Serbia G. dinarica is only distributed in Kosovo. In course of our recent pharmacognostic investigations G. dinarica was found at two localities on the mountain Tara, locality Zvezda (1230 m) and Veliki Kraj (1330 m). Plant material (aerial parts and roots) was collected from June to August 2000-2001. Anatomic and phytochemical analyses were carried out. Preliminary screening of the extracts of the roots and aerial parts of G. dinarica showed the presence of secoiridoids, flavonoids and xanthone compounds. From both extracts three secoiridoids were isolated (swertiamarin, gentiopicrin and sweroside).
AB  - Vrsta Gentiana dinarica Beck. (Gentianaceae) je retka biljna vrsta koja je u Srbiji, prema Flori Srbije, do sada konstatovana samo na Kosovu. U toku terenskih istraživanja, ovu vrstu smo zabeležili na dva lokaliteta na planini Tari i to lokalitet Zvezda (1230 m) i lokalitet Veliki Kraj (1330 m).Specifičnost anatomske građe korena G. dinarica je slabo odrveneo kislem, i tzv. unutarksilemski floem, odnosno grupice floemskih elemenata u centralnom delu sekundarnog drveta.Preliminarno ispitivanje ekstrakata korena i nadzemnog dela G. dinarica pokazao je prisustvo sekoiridoida, flavonoida i ksantona. Od sekoiridoida, izolovani su svercijamarin, genciopikrin i sverozid.

AB  - Iris reichenbachii Heuffel (Iridaceae) is an endemic plant species of Balkan penninsula and Romania. Pharmacognostic study of this species are not done till now. The microscopic preparations of the leaves were analyzed and specific orientation of vessels were noticed. Secondary metabolites were analyzed in the samples of leaves collected in different vegetative phase, flowers, fruits and rhizomes. In the samples, g-pyrones and secoiridoids were detected. Among γ-pyrones, a xanthone C-glycoside mangiferin were one of the most abundant compound. It's content varied from 0.5%-8.34% depending of plant organ or vegetative phase of development.
AB  - Vrsta Iris reichenbachii je endemit Balkanskog poluostrva i Rumunije. Do sada nije farmakognozijski izučavana. U ovom radu je ispitivana anatomska građa lista pri čemu je uočena specifična orijentacija provodnih snopića. Prisustvo sekundarnih metabolita ispitivano je u uzorcima listova, cvetova, plodova i rizoma. Detektovana su jedinjenja g-pironske strukture (ksantoni, flavonoidi) među kojima se po zastupljenosti u uzorcima, kao i po količini ističe ksanton mangiferin. Sadržaj mangiferina varira zavisno od faze razvića i biljnog organa (0.5%-8.34%). Detektovani su i sekoiridoidi od kojih se u značajnijoj količini pojavljuju svercijamarin i genciopikrin.
