The biovariability of Hypericum perforatum L. (St. John's Wort) grown wild in Calabria and Sardinia (Italy) was reported with the aim to characterize the species through the isolation, detection, and quantitative evaluations of chemical markers (hypericin, quercetin, rutin) by HPLC analysis. Antioxidant activity of the methanolic H. perforatum extracts showed that the Calabrian samples were more active than those from Sardinia. The antibacterial activity evidenced the best performance on the gram positive bacteria with a MIC value of 50 microg/mL. Moreover, antifungal activity of all the extracts was also tested which showed interesting results particularly on the phytopathogene fungus P. ultimum. The variability shown by the samples could be attributed to environmental factors such as chemical-physical properties, composition of the soil, geographical coordinate, altitude, and solar exposure. The phytochemical analysis and the biological activity data suggested a possible use of H. perforatum extracts in the alimentary, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical fields.
报道了在意大利卡拉布里亚和撒丁岛野生生长的贯叶连翘(圣约翰草)的生物变异性,目的是通过高效液相色谱分析对化学标志物(金丝桃素、槲皮素、芦丁)进行分离、检测和定量评估,从而对该物种进行表征。贯叶连翘甲醇提取物的抗氧化活性表明,卡拉布里亚的样品比撒丁岛的样品活性更强。抗菌活性表明,对革兰氏阳性菌表现出最佳性能,最低抑菌浓度值为50微克/毫升。此外,还测试了所有提取物的抗真菌活性,结果显示出有趣的结果,特别是对植物病原菌终极腐霉菌。样品所显示的变异性可能归因于环境因素,如化学物理性质、土壤成分、地理坐标、海拔和日照。植物化学分析和生物活性数据表明,贯叶连翘提取物可能在食品、化妆品和制药领域有应用。
