Popis: Psidium cattleyanum has two morphotypes: one with yellow fruits and other with red fruits. The leaves are popularly used as anti-inflammatory. However, no distinction is made between the types. Therefore, this study compared chemical and pharmacological data of both morphotypes to select proper biomarkers to ensure P. cattleyanum leaves quality. After extraction optimization by experimental design, 28 samples were analyzed by HPLC. Using Principal Component Analysis, it was possible to detect two chemotypes, unrelated to the color of the fruits. However, the extracts obtained from both chemotypes seemed to play similar anti-inflammatory effect, demonstrated by anti-chemotactic activity. The compounds common to both chemotypes were isolated and identified as hyperoside, miquelianin and quercitrin; these compounds also demonstrated anti-inflammatory potential. Since both chemotypes played similar activity, along with the isolated flavonoids, these flavonoids were selected as biomarkers for quality control of P. cattleyanum leaves. Following ICH guidelines, a HPLC method was validated. In summary, this study demonstrated that hyperoside, miquelianin and quercitrin can be used as biomarkers for quality control of P. cattleyanum leaves and a method was developed and validated to be used interchangeably for both morpho- and chemotypes.
