osthol

chemical composition
The main chemical components of Fructus Cnidii are coumarins and volatile oils, as well as triterpenes, glycosides, sugars, and other compounds. Among them, coumarins are the main components that exert pharmacological effects in Fructus Cnidii. Currently, 48 coumarin compounds have been isolated and identified from Fructus Cnidii, including 22 simple coumarins and 9 linear furan coumarins. Among them, there are six coumarin compounds with high content that are commonly used for chemical detection and identification, namely Osthole, Imperatorin, Isoepineillin, Xishhotexin, Bergaptene, and Isoimiperastatin.
Research has shown that the coumarin compound, osthol, in snake bed has various biological activities, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti osteoporosis effects, and can also be used as a biopesticide. We use snake bed extract as the active ingredient for quality control.

physical property
Low content is brown paste and yellow green powder, while high content is white needle shaped crystalline powder. Soluble in alkaline solutions, methanol, ethanol, chloroform, acetone, ethyl acetate, and boiling petroleum ether, insoluble in water and petroleum ether, mp. 83 ℃~84 ℃, bp. 145 ℃~150 ℃

Quality Control
① Chromatography (high-performance liquid chromatography: thin layer chromatography; gas chromatography) ② mass spectrometry (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) ③ spectroscopy (infrared, ultraviolet), atomic absorption ④ determination (physical constant determination; optical rotation determination; non-volatile matter determination; drying loss determination; Karl Fischer determination; evaporation or incineration residue determination) ⑤ analysis (content analysis; elemental analysis) ⑥ titration (acid titration; alkaline titration; coordination titration; non-aqueous titration; redox titration) ⑦ test (mixed with water test; clarity test; various chemical reaction tests)

Product Usage
Snake bed extract has a pesticide active gene - isopentene structure, exhibiting unique insecticidal and antibacterial activity. Research has shown that osthole extract not only has an effect on pests such as cabbage caterpillars, diamondback moths, aphids, and noctuid eggs, but also has a significant inhibitory effect on plant pathogenic fungi such as cucumber powdery mildew, grape downy mildew, pepper phytophthora, wheat Fusarium graminearum, etc.
The characteristics of snake bed extract as a plant derived pesticide are: safe, environmentally friendly, organic and green, with broad-spectrum, high efficiency, low toxicity, and no residue. At the same time, it also has the function of preserving greenery and prolonging the functional period of leaves.
