STUDYI OF EXTRACTS DISPERSED CHARACTERISTICS ISOLATED FROM LYCIUM BARBARUM L. FRUTS: PROSPECTS FOR PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATION
View through CrossRef
Objective. The State Pharmacopoeia of different countries includes the monographs on Lycium fruits and roots, which have antioxidant activity. How-ever, despite the wide prevalence of plants pharmacotherapy, there are no liquid extracts. This is due to insufficient data on the method of production, the water extracts and tinctures composition, as well as studies of their physico-chemical properties. Materials and methods. The objects of the study were the Lycium barbarum L. fruits from Western Albania. Extractants used: 30%, 70% and 96% ethanol, purified water (Milli-Q® Integral unit). Extracts were obtained by maceration, according to the Monograph no.1.4.1.0021.15 "Extracts". Studies of the dispersed properties of the isolated colloids – nanoparticle size (d, nm), electrokinetic potential (ζ, mV), polydispersity index (PDI) – were deter-mined by photon correlation spectroscopy method (dynamic light scattering, DLS) and Zetasizer Nano ZS, Malvern, UK. Results. Samples of Lycium prepared using the technology for water extracts and tinctures showed significant differences in dispersed characteristics, including cumulative (z-average) size, polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta of potential colloidal particles. It is shown that the values of the ζ-potential characterizing the stability of colloids exceed the boundary value of the stability of dispersed systems by 30 mV in water extracts, while in tinctures they have significantly lower values, hence stability. The addition of electrolytes to the LE samples contributed to the structural and mechanical stabili-zation of dispersed systems (according to Rebinder). Conclusion. Methods of water extracts and tinctures obtaining and stabilizing, as well as control of their dispersed properties with weekly kinetics, open up new opportunities for the use of promising plant raw materials of Lycium barbarum L. to solve pharmaceutical problems in the search for new drugs.
