Resumo
Introduction. To develop regulatory documentation for raw materials of chicory roots, it is necessary to standardize the raw materials according to the content of the main active substance, which is fructosans (the main substance is inulin) [1, 2]. The Russian Pharmacopoeia 15th edition, includes articles ФС.2.5.0070.18, ФС.2.5.0025.15, which include a method for determining the amount of fructosans in a plant, based on the spectrophotometric determination of the absorption of a colored complex of acid hydrolysis products of fructosans - 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) with resorcinol. However, in the scientific literature there are methods based on determining the absorption of hydrolysis products without additional complex formation.
The aim – development and validation of a method for the quantitative determination of the amount of fructosans in terms of inulin in chicory roots with spectrophotometric determination of 5-HMF absorption, without the use of additional reagents (resorcinol, thiourea).
Material and methods. The object of the study is the roots of common chicory. The development and validation of the method for the quantitative determination of the sum of fructosans in terms of inulin was carried out by spectrophotometry.
Results. The developed method has been positively evaluated in the following parameters: specificity (coincidence of absorption maxima at a wavelength of (286±2) nm); linearity (correlation coefficient 0.9987); accuracy (range of recovery percentage – from 96.59% to 103.50% and has an average value of 99.97%); repeatability (coefficient of variation (RSD) 1.52% < 2.00%); reproducibility (coefficients of variation of intralaboratory reproducibility do not exceed 2%).
Conclusion. The obtained results allow us to consider the developed method suitable for reliable quantitative determination of the amount of fructosans in terms of inulin in the roots of common chicory.
