Zárubová, K.: Analysis of Ginger root extract. II. [Thesis] Hradec Králové 2010, Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy. The main goal of this work was verification of the declared quality of commercially available dry ginger extract. Having a standard sample is a necessary requirement for its testing in planned preclinical trials. Ethanol extract of the plant Zingiber officinale Rosc. was analyzed. For qualitative evaluation was used TLC method. Elution system was a mixture of ether and n-hexane in the ratio 6 : 4, an adsorbent was silicagel, detection was performed by spraying with solution of 1% vanillin in perchloric acid and sulfuric acid 6N. 6-gingerol was used as a standard. It was confirmed that the analyzed sample contains gingerols. Liquid chromatography for the quantitative evaluation of the extract was performed. The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile and water (acidified with 1 ml of phosphoric acid in 1000 ml of water) and methanol in the ratio 55:44:1, column was Merck Purospher RP-18 endcapped, 5 µm, 250×4 mm. Flow rate of mobile phase was 1.0 ml/min, inject volume 20 ml, UV / VIS detection at 282 nm. As a standard was used 6-gingerol in a concentration of 1 mg / 1 ml.There was determined 5,47 % of gingerols. |
