Phenolic compounds as possible targets for quality control of HPLC fingerprint
Hydroalcoholic extract of Myrcia bella Cambess. leaves was evaluated by HPCL-ESI-MS/MS, ESI-MS/MSn, HPLC-PDA and streptozotocin-induced diabetes model. The fingerprint revealed as major flavonoids 6 and 10, with known inhibition activity on diabetes related enzymes. The extract presents hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic activity. Therefore 6 and 10 could be active principles and possible targets for the quality control of M. bella extract.
A HPLC-PDA chromatogram at 254nm. Peak: 1 cafeic acid, 2 quinic acid, 3 gallic acid, 4 myricetin-O-hexoside, 5 myricetin rhamnoside-galloyl, 6 myricetin-O-deoxyhexoside, 7 myricetin-7-O-rhamnoside, 8 quercetin-O-pentoside, 9 quercetin-O-pentoside, 10 quercetin-O-pentoside, 11 isorhamnetin-O-pentoside, 12 quercetin-O-pentoside-galloyl, 13 quercetin. B Flavonoids quantification based on quercetin calibration curves (R2 >0.9995) at 360nm. *The values are means ±SD, n=9. C Metabolic parameters of normal and diabetic mice treated with extract and saline (p<0,005), n=8.
