Two New Furostanol Glycosides from Asparagus cochinchinensis

Two new furostanol oligoglycosides named as aspacochioside A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the roots of Asparagus cochinchinensis (Lour.) Merr.. Their structures were elucidated to be 3-O-[{a-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(14)}{b-D-glucopyranosyl}]-26-O-[b-D-glucopy- ranosyl]-(25S)-5b-furostane-3b,22a,26-triol 1 and 3-O-[{a-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(14)}{b-D-glu- copyranosyl}]-26-O-[b-D-glucopyranosyl]-22a-methoxy-(25S)-5b-furostane-3b,26-diol 2 on the basis of spectroscopic techniques and chemical methods.

A New Furost-20(22)-ene Oligoglycoside from Asparagus cochinchinensis

A new furost-20(22)-ene oligoglycoside named as aspacochioside C was isolated from the roots of Asparagus cochinchinensis (Lour.) Merr.. Its structure was elucidated to be 26-O-b- D-glucopyranosyl-(25S)-5b-furost-20(22)-en-3b,26-diol-3-O-a-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(14)-b-D- glucopyranoside on the basis of spectroscopic techniques including 1D and 2D NMR experiments.

外源硒对天门冬的生长及有效成分含量的影响

在灌根法施加外源硒的条件下,研究天门冬[Asparagus cochinchinensis(Lour.)Merr]生长(茎长、块根数量、块根长度、块根直径、块根干重)以及天门冬块根有效成分含量的变化规律。结果表明,种植天门冬时向土壤中施加10~40 mg/L的外源硒有利于天门冬的生长。当外源硒浓度为30 mg/L时,每株天门冬块根数量最多,当外源硒浓度为50 mg/L时,对天门冬块根数量有抑制作用;当外源硒浓度为40 mg/L时,天门冬茎长、块根长度、块根直径及块根干重最佳;当外源硒浓度为10~50 mg/L时,对有效成分的积累表现为促进作用,天门冬多糖、皂苷与黄酮积累的整体最适宜外源硒浓度为30 mg/L。

天门冬的体外抑菌作用

利用水煎法、醇提取法和超声波提取法制备天门冬(Asparagus cochinchinensis(Lour)Merr.)提取液,并通过正交试验对超声波提取工艺进行优化;采用杯碟法测定天门冬提取液的抑菌圈直径;采用液体稀释法测定最低抑菌浓度。结果表明,超声波提取所用条件为70%的乙醇、浸泡时间6 h、提取时间20min和提取温度35℃时,所得天门冬提取液对金黄色葡萄球菌(Staphylococcus aureus)、大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)和黑曲霉(Aspergillus niger)抑制作用最强,对这3种菌的最低抑菌浓度分别为3.13、6.25和12.50 mg/mL。说明天门冬提取液对金黄色葡萄球菌、大肠杆菌、黑曲霉有较强的抑制作用,是一种天然抑菌剂。

一种高质量天门冬基因组DNA提取方法

针对天门冬[Asparagus cochinchinensis(Lour.)Merr.]成熟叶片富含多糖、多酚、蛋白质及其他次生代谢物质的特点,采用改良CTAB法对其基因组总DNA进行提取,并对DNA进行质量检测。结果表明,改良CTAB法可从天门冬成熟叶片中获得纯度高、完整性好的总DNA,其OD260 nm/OD280 nm为1.86,OD260 nm/OD230 nm为2.36,浓度为390μg/mL,产率达11.7μg/g,多糖、多酚和RNA杂质被去除干净,无降解现象,说明该方法提取的天门冬基因组总DNA质量较高。

林下种植黄精、何首乌及天门冬对土壤养分的影响

为了了解林下种植黄精、何首乌及天门冬对林地土壤养分的影响,为以后大规模发展林下中药材种植提供一定的理论指导,研究黄精等3种中药材根际土壤的养分变化。结果表明,黄精能够使根际土壤酸化,对照土壤中有机质含量较低,仅为34.0 g/kg,无法满足植物的生长需求。由于受有机质含量的影响,水解性氮总体上也偏低,有效磷和速效钾基本上能够满足这3种药材的生长。由于针叶难以腐化成有机质,今后应该选择阔叶林地或混交林地作为种植地,也可以通过人工增加土壤有机质含量来改良土壤性质。
