Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a flexible method for isolating active compounds from natural materials that have antiulcerogenic properties. The method involves using a natural material, Euphorbia cuneata, and obtaining the desired compounds through a simple and flexible purification process. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a flexible method for isolating antiulcerogenic active compounds from natural materials.

Problems solved by technology

The use of plants as a therapeutic agent is well known from the previous decades, however, when man developed synthesized drugs led to many side effects.
The latex is poisonous in some species and many of them contain irritant and pesticidal substances.

example 1

[0044]Recovery of plant materials: The aerial parts of E. cuneata (Euphorbiaceae) were collected during flowering stage in 2010, from Desert of Saudi Arabia. The sample was kindly identified by Dr. M. Gebali, botanist and by comparison with the published plant description (El-Gohary, 2004). Plant material was air-dried in shade, reduced to fine powder, packed in tightly closed containers and stored for phytochemical and biological studies.

example 2

[0045]Phytochemical screening: Powdered samples of the aerial parts of Euphorbia cuneata, Vahl were subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening according to the published methods (Awaad, 2009).

example 3

[0046]Extraction: One kilogram of the air dried powder of E. cuneata (aerial parts) was extracted by percolation in 90% ethanol at room temperature for two days and subsequent filtration. The residue was re-percolated again. The combined ethanol extracts were concentrated under reduced pressure at a temperature not exceeding 35° C. to yield a dry extract (290 g). Water (400 ml) was added and the resultant mixture successively extracted with diethyl ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol respectively. Each extract was dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, and concentrated under reduced pressure at a temperature not exceeding 35° C. to yield dry extracts (5.5, 6, 18.5 and 60 g) respectively. All extracts were tested for their antiulcerogenic and antioxidant activities. The ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts were the most effective extracts.
