Abstract

Aims: The
present study was designed to detect the phytochemical components of herbs and
herbal teas that are used to improve maternal milk production by gas
chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).

Methods: The
methanolic extracts were extracted by maceration method using rotary
evaporator. The essential oils of herbs were obtained by Clevenger method.

Results: The
GC/MS analysis of the essential oils or the methanol extracts of the mix of herbal
teas or herbs including Foeniculum
vulgare, Pimpinella anisum, Trigonella foenum graceum, Urtica dioica, Nigella sativa were listed as several compounds in this article.
Furthermore, the possible pharmacological effects of these components have been
discussed according to the literature.

Conclusions: The
findings of this study will guide researchers about the pharmacological active
ingredients of these herbs and herbal teas that may be used in the future for
milk enhancing or other medical purposes.

Keywords

Milk-increasing herbal teas, Foeniculum vulgare, Pimpenella anisum, Trigonella foenum graceum, Urtica diotica, Nigella Sativa

Galaktagog Etki İçin Kullanılan Bitkisel Çayların Farmakolojik Bileşenlerinin Gaz Kromatografisi/ Kütle Spektrometrisi ile Analizi

Abstract

Amaç:
Bu çalışmada, anne süt üretimini arttırmak için kullanılan bitki ve bitkisel
çayların bileşenlerinin gaz kromatografisi/kütle spektrometresi (GC/MS) ile
saptanması amaçlanmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntemler:
Metanolikekstraksiyonlar, maserasyon metodu ve rotary buharlaştırıcı
kullanılarak hazırlanmıştır. Uçucu yağların elde edilmesinde ise Clavenger
yöntemi kullanılmıştır.

Bulgular:
Foeniculum vulgare, Pimpenella anisum,
Trigonella foenum graceum, Urtica dioica, Nigella Sativa tıbbi bitkilerinin
ve bunların karışım çaylarının uçucu yağları ve methanol ekstraksiyonlarının
GC/MS analizleri yüksek hassasiyetle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizlerde tespit
edilen kimyasal bileşenler ayrıntılı olarak tablolarda belirtilmiştir. Ayrıca
bu bileşenlerin olası farmakolojik etkileri literatür ışığında yorumlanmıştır.

Sonuç:
Bu araştırmanın bulguları, gelecekte süt arttırıcı veya diğer tıbbi amaçlarla
kullanılabilecek bu bitki ve bitkisel çayların farmakolojik aktif bileşenleri
üzerine yapılacak araştırmalarda yol gösterici olacaktır.
