THE FLAVONOIDS AS BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE COMPOUNDS OF MEDICINAL PLANTS
218 KB
In the present paper are considered the flavonoids of medicinal plants, which have a wide spectrum of biological activity. Based on the results of pharmacognostical, chemical, analytical, technological and pharmacological investigations there was developed the classification of flavonoid-containing pharmacopoeial plants, which takes into account the whole composition of biologically active compounds from the point of view of biological activity, standardization and technologies for obtaining of medicinal preparations. There were carried out the methodological approaches to the creation and standardization of antioxidant, hepatoprotective, choleretic, diuretic and neurotropic phytopharmaceuticals from herbal materials, containing flavonoids. There was substantiated the using in methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis of herbal materials and preparations containing predominantly flavanones (herb of Polygonum hydropiper L.) chalcones [flowers of Helichrysum arenarium (L.) Moench.], flavones (flowers of Tanacetum vulgare L., herb of Artemisia dracunculus L.), flavonols (herb of Polygonum persicaria L., flowers and fruits of Crataegus sanguinea Pall., folia of Ginkgo biloba L., flowers of Tilia cordata Mill., herb of Aerva lanata L., herb of Agrimonia eupatoria L.), anthocyanins (flowers of Centaurea cyanus L.), relevant State standard samples of isosalipurposide (chalcone), pinostrobin (flavanone), cynaroside (flavone), hyperoside and rutin (flavonols), cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (anthocyanins).
