Abstract:

Astragalus alopecias is one of the valuable traditional medicinal herbs that exhibits a line of biological activities. In this research, the content of Astragalus alopecias flavonoids were studied. From the generative and vegetative organs astragalus identified a number of active compounds (flavonoids, polysaccharides, triterpene saponins). We conducted preliminary study the aerial part of Astragalus alopecias showed the presence of the most common groups of biologically active substances, flavonoids, triterpenoids. We identified quantitative content of flavonoids by UV-spectrophotometry in conversion to quercetin from aerial parts, in flowers and in root of plant Astragalus alopecias. As a result we found that in leaves and stems appeared highly accumulation of flavonoids. Contents of total flavonoid reached up to 18% and the major ingredient is quercetin.
