Abstract

Introduction. One of the important directions of pharmacy development is obtaining extraction preparations from new types of plant raw materials to create safe and effective phytopreparations. Liquid extracts are one of the most common extraction dosage forms, the advantages of which are the relative ease of manufacture, the preservation of active substances in their natural form, the convenience of use as a finished product and the possibility of use as part of complex drugs.

The aim of the study – to prepare the liquid extract of the roots of Gentiana аsсlepiadea and to standardize it.

Research Methods. The raw material for obtaining the liquid extract was the roots of Gentiana (G.) аsсlepiadea, which were harvested in Ivano-Frankivsk region in 2020. The liquid extract was obtained by remaceration, and 40% ethyl alcohol was used as an extractant. The content of the total free organic acids, ascorbic acid, oxidizing phenols in the extracts was determined by titrimetric methods; polysaccharides – by gravimetric method; total polyphenols – spectrophotometrically on the ULAB model 102 spectrophotometer (China). Standardization of the obtained extract was carried out in accordance with the requirements of the monograph “Extracts” (State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine 2.0).

Results and Discussion. The results of the study showed that a liquid extract of the roots of G. аsсlepiadea contains a sum of polyphenols – 3.96±0.07 %, oxidizing phenols – 4.16±0.09 %, polysaccharides – 0.65±0.01 %, organic acids – 0.49±0.01 %, ascorbic acid – 0.034±0.002 %. During standardization, the test extract passed the test according to the main numerical indicators and microbiological purity. The ethanol content in the extract was 39.4±2.88 %, the dry residue – 20.6±0.76 %, the total polyphenols – at least 3%.

Conclusions. The liquid extract of the roots of G. аsсlepiadea was obtained by remaceration using 40 % ethyl alcohol as extractant. The content of the main groups of biologically active substances was identified and quantified. The resulting extract is standardized in accordance with the monograph “Extracts” (State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine 2.0).  The results of the conducted studies indicate the prospects for further study of the adaptogenic activity of the extract from the roots of G. аsсlepiadea.
