Abstract
A High performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) method was developed and optimized for determination of colchatetralene, a new bioactive alkaloid isolated from the chloroform extract of an endophytic fungus, isolated from surface sterilized seeds of Gloriosa superba Linn. The development of method involved evaluation and optimization of the various stages of sample preparation, chromatographic separation, detection and quantification. The method employed aluminum backed pre coated TLC plates (silica gel 60F254) as the stationary phase. The mobile phase system consisted of ethyl acetate- methanol-water (10:1.5:1, v/v/v) at room temperature (25 ± 2°C). Densitometric analysis was carried out in the absorbance/reflectance mode at the wavelength of 236nm. The system was found to give compact spots for colchatetralene (Rf value of 0.36 ± 0.03). The linear regression analysis data for the calibration plots showed good linearity (r2 = 0.99601 ± 0.002) in the concentration range 200–1200 ng spot-1. The method was validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for precision, accuracy, recovery and robustness. The limits of detection and quantification were 20 and 60 ng per spot, respectively.

Ayurvedic medicinal therapeutic approaches for inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders
Usually, in our elderly population, neurodegenerative disorders occur due to neuron death. Alzheimer?s disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disease. Dementia is the leading cause of AD, which affects about 30 million people worldwide. According to the World Alzheimer report 2018, a new case of dementia develops every ...read more
Recent Advances in Biotransformation of Bioactive Terpenoids using Aspergillus niger
Biotransformation is the reaction catalyzed by biological catalysts of either isolated enzymes or whole cell cultures of microorganisms. This process has been extensively applied in the conversion of bioactive terpenoids with high regio- and stereospecifity. This process has been also applied in the lead discovery and development. Aspergillus niger has ...read more
