Abstract
Plants of the genus Artemisia have a rich complex of biologically active compounds, among which essential oils, sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoids, and acetylenic compounds predominate. Particular attention is drawn to Artemisia scoparia Waldst. et Kit. Due to a wide range of therapeutic activity, wormwood paniculata is used as a choleretic, hepatoprotective, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory agent. Flavonoids are one of the leading groups of biologically active compounds (BAS) in water and water-alcohol extracts from the aerial part of Artemisia scoparia. These compounds have powerful hepatoprotective, choleretic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral effects. Objective: development of a method for quantitative determination of the amount of flavonoids in the herb Artemisia scoparia. Materials and methods. The object of the study was Artemisia scoparia herb, collected in the flowering phase in the Nikitsky Botanical Garden in 2016-2020. Quantitative determination of the amount of flavonoids in raw materials was carried out by UV spectroscopy. Results. It has been established that the differential spectrum of the complex compound of the studied extract with aluminum chloride does not differ in terms of the position of the light absorption maximum (410 nm) from the differential spectrum of the complex of rutin with aluminum ions. The content of total flavonoids in terms of rutin in Artemisia scoparia herb was 1.95% ± 0.05. Conclusion. A method has been developed for the quantitative determination of the amount of flavonoids in the raw material of Artemisia scoparia by UV spectrophotometry in terms of rutin.
