Abstract

دراسة المحتوى الكيميائي لنبات النيم

(Azadirachta indica)

طلال الضاهر

تم الكشف عن المحتوى الكيميائي لنبات النيم (Azadirachta indica) من فلافونوئيدات و قلويدات و صابونينات  وغليكوزيدات الموجودة في أوراق نبات النيم الغض المزروع في البيئة السورية في محافظة حمص – قرية المزينة- منطقة وادي النضارى.  كما تم تحديد النسب المئوية لكل من البرولين و الكلوروفيل بطريقة النينهيدرين و أرنون على التوالي.

حيث أظهرت النتائج احتواء أوراق النبات الجافة على البرولين بنسبة ( 0.005 %)  كما كانت نسبة الكلوروفيل 59.148 ميكروغرام / مل.

كما تم استخلاص القلافونئيدات من الخلاصة العضوية باستخدام مذيبات مختلفة و هي ( الميتانول و الهكسان والكلوروفورم و خلات الإيتيل و البوتانول) وتم تحديد كمية الفلافونوئيدات المستخلصة في كل مذيب بطريقة كلوريد الألومنيوم باستخدام منحنى الكوارستين القياسي وتم الحصول على أعلى نسبة من الفلافونوئيدات باستخدام مذيب الميتانول ( 529 mg في 100 g من الأوراق الجافة). أما النسبة الأخفض كانت باستخدام مذيب البوتانول
( 63 mg في 100 g من الأوراق الجافة).

The chemical content of the Azadirachta indica was detected from flavonoids, alkaloids, soap and glycosides which is found in the leaves of the neem plant cultivated in the Syrian environment in the governorate of Homs – Al- Hawash University, as well as the percentages of both proline and chlorophyll in the manner of ninhidrine and arnone, respectively.

The results showed that the leaves of the dry plant on the proline were 0.005% and chlorophyll was 59.148 μg / mL.

he amount of flavonoids extracted in each solvent by aluminum chloride method was determined by using the standard quarstine curve. The highest percentage of flavonoids was obtained using methanol solvent (the solvent, 529 mg in 100 g of dry leaves). The lowest was using the solvent of butanol (63 mg in 100 g dry leaves).
