SASSAFRAS TEA: USING A TRADITIONAL METHOD OF PREPARATION TO REDUCE THE CARCINOGENIC COMPOUND SAFROLE A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Forest Resources by Kate Cummings May 2012 Accepted by: Patricia Layton, Ph.D., Committee Chair Karen C. Hall, Ph.D Feng Chen, Ph. D. Christina Wells, Ph. D. ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to quantify the carcinogenic compound safrole in the traditional preparation method of making sassafras tea from the root of Sassafras albidum. The traditional method investigated was typical of preparation by members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and other Appalachian peoples. Sassafras is a tree common to the eastern coast of the United States, especially in the mountainous regions. Historically and continuing until today, roots of the tree are used to prepare fragrant teas and syrups. -
Chavicol, As a Larva-Growth Inhibitor, from Viburnum Japonicum Spreng

Kyoto University, Kyoto Japan Received July 22, 1976 Chavicol was isolated as a drosophila larva-growth inhibitor from the leaves of Viburnum japonicum Spreng. The inhibitory activities of chavicol and its related compounds against drosophila larvae and adults were examined.

Final Report: Development of Methods to Quantitatively Extract Biologically
DEVELOPMENT OF METHODS TO QUANTITATIVELY EXTRACT BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE PRINCIPLES FROM COMPLEX FOODS, FLAVOURINGS AND HERBS AND SPICES, TO ALLOW THEIR SUBSEQUENT ANALYSIS FINAL REPORT Report Number FD 10/01 Authors M Scotter and G Rees Date March 2010 Sponsor Food Standards Agency Aviation House 125 Kingsway London WC2B 6NH Sponsor's Project No. A01067 Fera Project No. R6NL Fera File No. FLN 8882 Principal Workers M Scotter, D Roberts and G Rees Contract Manager M Scotter Distribution: 1.

This report details the findings of Food Standards Agency Project A01067: Development of methods to quantitatively extract biologically active principles (BAPs) from complex foods, flavourings and herbs and spices, to allow their subsequent analysis. These flavouring compounds cover a range of chemical types and this makes their extraction and determination in foods and beverages analytically challenging. 2. The analytical strategy adopted therefore was to develop three separate methods for each chemical / physical class of BAP: I. Volatile BAPs by simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE) of the sample followed by GC-MS quantitation. II. Coumarin and quassine by solvent extraction of the sample, clean-up using solid phase extraction cartridges and then quantitation by HPLC with UV detection. III. Hydrogen cyanide by extraction of the sample using acidic medium, enzymatic hydrolysis of glycosidic cyanogens to cyanohydrins, hydrolysis of these to cyanide, and lastly derivatisation using a modified König reaction to form a coloured complex which is determined spectrophotometrically. -

Received: 20 August 2020; Accepted: 25 September 2020; Published: 27 September 2020 Abstract: Asari Radix et Rhizoma (ARR) is an important traditional Chinese medicine. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are the main active constituents of ARR. Research on the metabolite profile of VOCs and the difference of absorbed constituents in vivo after an administration of ARR decoction and powder will be helpful to understand the pharmacological activity and safety of ARR. In this study, headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS–SPME–GC–MS) was applied to profile the VOCs from ARR in rats in vivo. A total of 153 VOCs were tentatively identified; 101 were original constituents of ARR (98 in the powder-treated group and 43 in the decoction-treated group) and 15 were metabolites, and their metabolic reactions were mainly oxidation and reduction, with only two cases of methylation and esterification, and 37 unclassified compounds were identified only in the ARR-treated group. -

Phenols and Phenolic Ethers They Are Among the Most Important Constituents of Volatile Oils
Phenols and phenolic ethers They are among the most important constituents of volatile oils. General methods of isolation: Phenols (weak acids) form water soluble salts with dilute alkali solutions (3-5%). Therefore the oil containing phenols is shaken with dilute aqueous solution of alkalis; O OH Na+ + HOH + Na+ OH – Phenol Sodium phenoxide 1 General methods of isolation of phenols The aqueous layer is separated then acidified (to liberate the phenol) and either steam distilled or extracted with ether. 2 General methods of isolation Phenols and phenolic ethers By cooling the oil or the suitable fraction, some phenols and phenolic ethers can be separated in crystalline form. General characters of terpene phenols : With FeCl3 colored iron compounds.
