Identifizierung und Charakterisierung von Arzneipflanzen mit »Metabolic Fingerprinting«

Zusammenfassung

Metabolomanalysen finden in der Systembiologie bereits breite Anwendung. Im Bereich der Phytotherapie ist es aufgrund der Komplexität des Pflanzenmetaboloms ebenfalls sinnvoll, Pflanzenextrakte in ihrer Gesamtheit zu erfassen, um die Qualität, Wirksamkeit und Unbedenklichkeit von Arzneipflanzen und auch Fertigarzneimitteln zu gewährleisten. Am Beispiel der Echten Kamille (Matricaria recutita L.), einigen ihrer Verfälschungen und der Römischen Kamille (Chamaemelum nobile (L.) All.) wird dargestellt, welche Möglichkeiten »Metabolic Fingerprinting« bietet, um Arzneipflanzen zu klassifizieren und sie von Verfälschungen abzugrenzen.

Summary

Metabolic fingerprinting for the identification and classification of medicinal plants

Metabolomic studies are commonly used in the field of systems biology. As the plant metabolome is enormously complex, it is also desirable to analyse plant extracts in a holistic approach when they are used for phytotherapy to ensure their quality, efficacy and safety. As a case study, chamomile flower (Matricaria recutita L.), examples of its adulterations and Chamaemelum nobile (L.) All. are used to examine the potential of the metabolic fingerprinting approach for classification of medicinal plants and identification of adulterations.
