The water immersion of Pterocarpus wood produces strong blue fluorescence, which comes from the extract. fluorescence contained in extract is interest for identification wood. We conducted an investigation into extraction solution and analyzed mechanism this species. Possible species fluorescent molecules are discussed based on mixture. Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) used analy...

The mean deltaD value of petiole water of Pterocarpus indicus Willd (deltaD = -9.0 +/- 2.5 per thousand, n = 3) was not significantly different from the mean value of stem water (-8.3 +/- 2.8 per thousand, n = 3). deltaD values of main vein water ranged from -11.1 to + 12.0 per thousand (n = 14) and increased along the main vein from petiole to the tip of leaves. Mesophyll water was highly enri...

The non-polar components of two leguminoceae species Albizia adianthifolia (Schumach), and Pterocarpus angolensis (DC) were investigated. GC-MS analysis of the crude n-hexane and chloroform extracts together with several chromatographic separation techniques led to the identification and characterization (using NMR) of sixteen known compounds from the heartwood and stem bark of Albizia adianthi...
