Practical 2: Identification and quantification of taxifolin from milk thistle

Aim: to Identify and quantify the amount of taxifolin from three samples Silymarin stock solution, taxifolin and silybum marianum extract. `

Methodology: Using auto-pipette (20-100 microlitre), pipetted 0.06 mg of Taxifolin was added to 10ml conical flask and made up to the mark (10ml) with H2O.This procedure was repeated with the same amounts foe silymarin stock solution and silybum marianum extract. Taxifolin was transferred to 2ml brown bottle for HPLC auto sampler, this was also done to silymarin stock solution. Silybum marianum extract was filtered via a syringe filter (0.2 microlitre).The three samples were tested for concentrations of taxifolin via HPLC.This process was repeated a further 20 times with different amounts of taxifolin, silymarin stock solution and silybum marianum extract. Results of Taxifolin standard shown in table 1 and figure 1.

Results:
Table 1 Known Concentration of Taxifolin Standard Concentration mg/ml | Taxifolin peak area | 0.0036 | 1.876 | 0.0072 | 2.862 | 0.0144 | 4.518 | 0.0576 | 8.074 | 0.0576 | 15.273 |

The conditions of HPLC as the Taxifolin standard sample was run
HPLC Conditions, Halo C18, 4.6x150, 2um
Detection 280nM, injection volume 10mL
Table 2 HPLC Conditions Minute | Solvent A (Methanol) | Solvent B (0.5% Phosphoric Acid) | 0 | 20 | 80 | 2 | 20 | 80 | 20 | 60 | 40 | 25 | 60 | 40 | 30 | 20 | 80 |
The three unknown samples of Taxifolin standard (TS), Silymarin stock solution (SSS) and Silybum Marianum Methanol Extract (SBME), were diluted to 0.06 ml/10ml of distilled water. 10ml was then pipette small brown glass high

    In the third separation of this experiment, the hood in the lab was used. The curds were placed in a 100 mL beaker and extracted using 30 mL of ethyl acetate. The curds were crushed with a stirring rod. This extraction was then gravity filtered through a funnel fitted with the filter paper. A rubber policeman was used to scrape the beaker to get as much casein as possible. This casein was then put aside in the hood safely. Boiling chips were put into an Erlenmeyer flask along with the filtrate collected. This flask was then put inside of the large beaker that was put to heat in the first separation of this experiment…

    The purpose of Module 11A was to test for the presence or absence of a particular set of functional groups through the use of wet chemical tests. In this manner, Unknown A which was a colorless solution, was first tested with 2,4-DNP which after mixing for a few seconds formed a bright yellow precipitate. Although this confirms the presence of either a ketone or aldehyde group, one simple chemical test does not completely specify the presence or absence of other functional groups. Therefore, a second test was made in order to test for the presence of alkyl halides (R-Br or R-I specifically). However, after the addition of alcoholic silver nitrate, AgNO3 (test #2) to a few drops of the unknown, the mixture remained colorless and no precipitate formed. Following this, the third test was performed in…

    I would recommend from the above table that the video maker uses incremental back-up. The advantage of this being that firstly, after the 8 week period the 2TB storage would be suffice to keep all the back-up data. The main advantage of incremental back-up is that using this method only new data would be transferred, thus with no duplication of data less storage space is required, and additional to this it reduces the time required to back-up the data. The disadvantage of this is that when retrieving the data, all the different back-ups will need to be retrieved to get all the relevant data.…
