Chamomillae flos

Alcoholic extracts of Carvi fructus, Foeniculi fructus and Matricariae flos (chamomillae flos) show a clear spasmolytic effect (but not the essential oils ) which depends on other ingredients, like flavones.

Normal-phase TLC using a silica stationary phase was employed for the optimization of the separation of flavonoid content of Matricariae flos (Chamomilla recutita L. Rauschert). Air-dried and powdered plant material was extracted by refluxing for 10 min with methanol. The suspension was filtered, evaporated and the residue was redissolved in methanol. The mobile phases included in the experiments were 1 = ethyl acetate-methylethylketone-formic acid-water (50 30 10 10, v/v) 2 = ethyl acetate-methanol-water (75 15 10 v/v) 3 = ethyl acetate-formic acid-water (80 10 10, v/v) 4 = ethyl acetate-formic acid-water (100 20 30, v/v) 5 = ethyl acetate-formic acid-acetic acid-water (100 11 11 27, v/v) 6 = n-butanol-acetic acid-water (66 17 17, v/v) 7 = ethyl acetate-methanol-formic acid-water (75 10 5 10, v/v) 8 = ethyl acetate-acetic acid-water (80 10 10, v/v). Development was carried out in the linear ascending mode at...
