General description

β-Amyrin belongs to the group of naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpenes, known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-oxidative, and chemoprotective properties.

Application

This analytical standard can also be used as follows:

  • Development and validation of two high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) methods to quantify four biomarkers— β-amyrin, β-sitosterol, lupeol, and ursolic acid in the ethanol extract of G. senegalensis leaves
  • Analysis of methanol extracts of leaf samples collected from five Ficus species by a novel HPTLC densitometric method, for the determination of β-amyrin, validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines
  • Quantification of β-amyrin in the ethanolic extracts collected from two Maytenus species, M. obscura and M. parviflora by a validated HPTLC-densitometric method
  • Secondary metabolite profiling of various plant parts collected from 82 plants belonging to 21 different cannabis strains using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for sterols and terpenoids (mono-, sesqui-, tri-), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV and mass spectrometric (MS) detection for flavonoids

Biochem/physiol Actions

Triterpene that has broad-spectrum analgesic properties for which the underlying mechanism is poorly understood.
