Determination of saponins in legumes by direct densitometry.

Research has shown that dietary saponins may have health benefits. A simple, rapid method for the determination of saponins in legumes, using densitometry, is described. Saponin preparations, after pretreatment to remove nonsaponin components, are spotted in rows on a thin-layer chromatography plate, along with soyasaponin standards. The plate, without solvent development, is directly treated with sulfuric acid and heated. Violet spots develop which have a density proportional to the amount of saponin present. The standard curve has a correlation coefficient of 0.99 and is linear over the range of 1.25 to 10 microg of soyasaponins applied. The method has a coefficient of variation of less than 3% and compares favorably with quantitative thin-layer chromatography. Using this method the saponin contents of defatted soy flour (0.58%), dried navy beans (0.32%), and dried kidney beans (0.29%) were determined, and these results were found to be consistent with previous reports in the literature.

Rapid, low cost thin-layer chromatographic screening method for the detection of ochratoxin A in green coffee at a control level of 10 microg/kg.

A thin-layer chromatographic (TLC) screening method was developed for the detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) in green coffee at a control level of 10 microg/kg. The method is based on extraction of OTA with a mixture of phosphoric acid and dichloromethane, purification by liquid-liquid partition into sodium hydrogen carbonate, separation by normal-phase TLC, and detection by visual estimation of fluorescence intensity under a UV lamp at 366 nm. The method was validated by performing replicate analyses of uncontaminated green coffee material spiked at 3 different levels of OTA (5, 10, and 20 microg/kg), and also by comparing results obtained on a series of test trial green coffees naturally contaminated with OTA (range 0.2 to 136.7 microg/kg) with those measured by a quantitative immunoaffinity/HPLC method. The agreement between the two methods was excellent, and neither false positive nor false negative results were recorded. This screening method is rapid, simple, robust, and very cheap, which makes it particularly well adapted for implementation in coffee-producing countries.

Coupling of biologically active steroids to conjugating arms through ether linkages for use in immunochemistry.

Conjugation of haptens through ether linkages avoids leakage problems in immunoassays, but this procedure is not easily applied to most steroids that bear low reacting hydroxyls. A new technique allowing the ether coupling of biologically active steroids with conjugating arms in mild conditions compatible with thermosensitive protecting groups is presented. In the first step, the solvent (an aromatic hydrocarbon) was dehydrated by azeotropic distillation in a soxhlet apparatus using a cartridge filled with 0.3 nm and 0.4 nm molecular sieves. In this protected medium, a thallium steroid alkoxide was completely formed by reaction of the steroid with thallium ethoxide and by the continuous elimination of ethanol. The halogenated chain was then introduced into the same medium and reacted in the absence of moisture to give the ether. 17beta-Hydroxy and 11alpha-hydroxy derivatives were involved in this reaction. The coupling was effective for all of the compounds tested after 2-36 h of reaction time and at temperatures between 80 and 140 degrees C. The conjugates were at least 95% pure, and yields ranged from 15 to 95%.
