Cancer Prevention02:59

Cancer Prevention

Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Plant Hormones01:56

Plant Hormones

Plant hormones—or phytohormones—are chemical molecules that modulate one or more physiological processes of a plant. In animals, hormones are often produced in specific glands and circulated via the circulatory system. However, plants lack hormone-producing glands.

Organic Compounds03:02

Organic Compounds

All living things are formed mostly of carbon compounds called organic compounds. The category of organic compounds includes both natural and synthetic compounds that contain carbon. Although a single, precise definition has yet to be identified by the chemistry community, most agree that a defining trait of organic molecules is the presence of carbon as the principal element, bonded to hydrogen and other carbon atoms. However, some carbon-containing compounds such as carbonates, cyanides, and...
Compounds Essential to Human Function01:25

Compounds Essential to Human Function

The human body is composed of cells that are fundamentally made up of several different molecules. These molecules are essential to carry out all physiological processes in the body and are broadly classified into organic and inorganic based on their chemical structures.
Inorganic Compounds Essential to Human Functioning
Inorganic compounds essential to human functioning include water, salts, acids, and bases. These compounds are inorganic, i.e., they do not have a carbon-hydrogen bond. Water...
Positive Regulator Molecules02:39

Positive Regulator Molecules

Mitotic cell division results in daughter cells that exactly resemble the parent cell. However, errors in the DNA replication or distribution of genetic material may lead to genetic mutations that may be passed down to every new cell formed from the resulting abnormal cell. Propagation of such mutant cells is restricted through checkpoint mechanisms present at different stages of the cell cycle. These checkpoints involve regulator molecules that either promote or demote cell cycle events.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Natural Product Chemistry
  • Separation Science

Background:

  • Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a powerful separation technique with numerous technological advancements.
  • However, limited research has focused on applying CE for natural product analysis, particularly phytochemical bioactive compounds.
  • This gap necessitates a focused review on CE's utility in this domain.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) in the analysis of various phytochemical bioactive compounds.
  • To discuss the use of CE for fingerprint analysis of herbal medicines.
  • To explore strategies for optimizing CE conditions and detection methods for natural product analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on studies employing capillary electrophoresis for phytochemical analysis.
  • Categorization of analyzed phytochemicals (e.g., flavonoids, nucleosides, steroids, lignans, quinones, coumarins).
  • Discussion of optimization techniques for CE separation and detection specific to natural products.

Main Results:

  • CE has been successfully applied to the analysis of diverse phytochemical classes, including flavonoids, nucleosides, steroids, lignans, quinones, and coumarins.
  • CE is effective for qualitative and quantitative analysis, as well as for herbal fingerprint profiling.
  • Various strategies for optimizing CE parameters (e.g., buffer composition, voltage, temperature) and detection methods (e.g., UV-Vis, MS) have been reported.

Conclusions:

  • Capillary electrophoresis is a versatile and effective technique for the analysis of phytochemical bioactive compounds and herbal fingerprinting.
  • Optimization of CE conditions and detection is crucial for successful application in natural product analysis.
  • Further research can expand the utility of CE in natural product chemistry.
