Matrine dosage

Matrine is a quinolizidine alkaloid derived from Sophora flavescens, a traditional Asian medicinal plant widely used for its remarkable biological properties. This molecule is studied for its effects:

• Natural insecticides and biopesticides
• Antifungals on crops and plants
• Antitumor and anti-inflammatory drugs in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical research

The dosage of matrine is essential in the formulation of products based on plant extracts, the standardization of food supplements, as well as in the quality control of biopesticides of natural origin.

Analysis method by HPLC or LC-MS

The analysis is based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or mass spectrometry (LC-MS) techniques, allowing precise quantification of matrine, even at low concentrations. These methods are optimized to detect alkaloids in complex plant matrices, with or without a prior purification step.

Analytical parameters can be adjusted according to:

• From the type of matrix (root, powder, hydroalcoholic extract, liquid formulation)
• Expected contents
• From the reference standard targeted (if applicable in cosmetics, agriculture or nutraceuticals)

Affected matrices

Matrine dosing is suitable for a variety of matrices used in the natural health, agricultural or herbal formulation sectors:

• Extracts of Sophora flavescens
• Dried root powders
• Phytosanitary or biopesticide formulations
• Hydroalcoholic solutions
• Herbal food supplements

Applications and interests of dosage

This analysis is recommended in the following contexts:

• Quality control of plant raw materials
• Validation of active levels in nutraceutical formulations
• Regulatory control of natural phytosanitary products
• Stability or bioavailability studies
• Development of standardized food supplements

Quantification of matrine ensures the traceability and reproducibility of finished products.
