PRODUCT ID PRODUCT NAME QTY/ UNIT ASB-00008037-00B HANDBOOK OF ANALYTICAL 1 Book METHOD FOR DIETARY SUPPLEMENT 3 www.chromadex.com introduction letter Welcome to the new 2006/2007 ChromaDex Catalogue. This year ChromaDex has continued to “set THE standard” by adding many new products and services to our catalog. We have added several hundred new phytochemical refer- ence standards to our list, and we are now starting to offer many of these phytochemicals in larger sizes(grams to kilograms) for research purposes. We have also increased our line of Botanical Reference Materials(BRMs) to cover the continuously increasing demand for analytical tools for identity testing. Much of this demand is coming from the ever looming FDA final rule on Good Manufacturing Practices(GMPs), which are now scheduled for re- lease in December, as well as the increasing regulatory environments in Australia, Canada, Europe and Brazil. 2006 is scheduled to end with a bang, assuming the FDA releases the GMPs, which will make for a very interesting 2007. The ChromaDex Contract Services Group has continued to flourish during 2005 and 2006, and we have dramatically expanded our range of contract services and research capabilities. ChromaDex has a world class team of natural product and analytical chem- ists with state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and facilities, and we will continue to ex- pand our services. ChromaDex is also proud to announce the launch of our Bioluminex analytical bioassay kit. After licensing the intellectual property from Bayer Ag and finalizing the Bioluminex kit concept with a grant from the FDA, we finally have the kit ready for the market. We have also launched a new website dedicated to Bioluminex, at www.bioluminex.com. The dietary supplement industry has undergone a great deal of change over the past decade and should see even more dramatic changes over the next couple of years with increasing enforcement of regulatory policies worldwide. ChromaDex, since its inception in 1999, has taken an active role in this process and will continue to develop and provide the tools required to meet these changes. We look forward to working with you now and into the future. Sincerely, Frank Jaksch President and CEO ChromaDex, Inc. ChromaDex Mission Our customers are #1 priority.

  • The Condensed Tannins of Okoume (Aucoumea Klaineana Pierre)
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The condensed tannins of Okoume (Aucoumea klaineana Pierre): A molecular structure and thermal stability study Starlin Péguy Engozogho Anris 1,2*, Arsène Bikoro Bi Athomo1,2, Rodrigue Safou Tchiama2,3, Francisco José Santiago-Medina4, Thomas Cabaret1, Antonio Pizzi4 & Bertrand Charrier1 In order to promote convenient strategies for the valorization of Aucoumea klaineana Pierre (Okoume) plywood and sawmill wastes industry in the felds of adhesives and composites, the total phenolic content of Okoume bark, sapwood and heartwood was measured. The molecular structure of tannins extracted from the bark was determined by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-Of-Flight (Maldi-ToF) mass spectrometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The total phenolic content displayed signifcant diference (p = 0.001) between the bark, sapwood and heartwood which decreased as follows: 6 ± 0.4, 2 ± 0.8 and 0.7 ± 0.1% respectively. The pro-anthocyanidins content was also signifcantly diferent (p = 0.01) among the three wood wastes, and the bark was the richest in condensed tannins (4.2 ± 0.4%) compared to the sapwood (0.5 ± 0.1%) and heartwood (0.2 ± 0.2%). Liquid chromatography coupled mass spectroscopy (LC-MS) and Maldi-ToF analysis of the bark showed for the frst time that Okoume condensed tannins are fsetinidin, gallocatechin and trihydroxyfavan based monomers and complex polymers obtained with glycosylated units. No free catechin or robitinidin units were detected, whereas distinctive dihydroxy or trihydroxyfavan-3-benzoate dimers were observed in the investigated condensed tannin extracts. FTIR analysis showed the occurrence of glucan- and mannan-like sugars in the condensed tannins, and Maldi-ToF highlighted that these sugars should account for ten glycosylated units chemically bonded with two fsetinidins and one gallocatechin trimer.

Abstract: The theoretical study of chrysanthemin (cyanidin 3-glucoside) as a pigment for TiO2-based dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was performed with the GAUSSSIAN 09 simulation. The electronic spectra of neutral and anionic chrysanthemin molecules were calculated by density functional theory with B3LYP functional and DGDZVP basis set. A better energy level alignment was found for partially deprotonated molecules of chrysanthemin, with the excited photoelectron having enough energy in order to be transferred to the conduction band of TiO2 semiconductor in DSSCs. In addition, we used the raw aqueous extracts of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) calyces as the source of chrysanthemin Citation: Ndiaye, A.; Dioum, A.; and the extracts with various pH values were tested in DSSCs.

Simon and approved by ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey January, 2010 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Chemistry and Pharmacology of Kinkéliba (Combretum micranthum), a West African Medicinal Plant by CARA RENAE WELCH Dissertation Director: James E. Simon Kinkéliba (Combretum micranthum, Fam. Combretaceae) is an undomesticated shrub species of western Africa and is one of the most popular traditional bush teas of Senegal. The herbal beverage is traditionally used for weight loss, digestion, as a diuretic and mild antibiotic, and to relieve pain. The fresh leaves are used to treat malarial fever. Leaf extracts, the most biologically active plant tissue relative to stem, bark and roots, were screened for antioxidant capacity, measuring the removal of a radical by UV/VIS spectrophotometry, anti-inflammatory activity, measuring inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells, and glucose-lowering activity, measuring phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) mRNA expression in an H4IIE rat hepatoma cell line. Radical oxygen scavenging activity, or antioxidant capacity, was utilized for initially directing the fractionation; highlighted subfractions and isolated compounds were subsequently tested for anti-inflammatory and glucose-lowering activities. The ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions of the crude leaf extract were fractionated leading to the isolation and identification of a number of polyphenolic ii compounds.

  • Antioxidant Evaluation-Guided Chemical Profiling and Structure
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Antioxidant evaluation-guided chemical profling and structure- activity analysis of leaf extracts from fve trees in Broussonetia and Morus (Moraceae) Xinxin Cao1, Lingguang Yang1, Qiang Xue1, Fan Yao1, Jing Sun1, Fuyu Yang2 & Yujun Liu 1* Morus and Broussonetia trees are widely used as food and/or feed. Among 23 phenolics identifed from leaves of fve Moraceae species using UPLC–QTOF–MS/MS, 15 were screened using DPPH/ABTS- guided HPLCs, including seven weak (favonoids with one hydroxyl on B-ring) and eight strong (four cafeoylquinic acids and four favonoids, each with a double hydroxyl on B-ring) antioxidants. We then determined the activity and synergistic efects of individual antioxidants and a mixture of the eight strongest antioxidants using DPPH-guided HPLC. Our fndings revealed that (1) favonoid glucuronide may have a more negative efect on antioxidant activity than glucoside, and (2) other compounds in the mixture may exert a negative synergistic efect on antioxidant activity of the four favonoids with B-ring double hydroxyls but not the four cafeoylquinic acids. In conclusion, the eight phenolics with the strongest antioxidant ability reliably represented the bioactivity of the fve extracts examined in this study. Moreover, the Morus alba hybrid had more phenolic biosynthesis machinery than its cross-parent M. alba, whereas the Broussonetia papyrifera hybrid had signifcantly less phenolic machinery than B. papyrifera. This diference is probably the main reason for livestock preference for the hybrid of B. papyrifera over B. papyrifera in feed. Morus and Broussonetia tree species (family: Moraceae) have high economic value; among other uses, their leaves are widely used as feed to improve meat quality.
