Shikimic acid is a phenolic acid which is known to possess several activities and it takes attention as a leading compound to some synthetic medicinal substances as well. In this study, high performance liquid chromatographic analyses were carried out in order to determine shikimic acid contents of Alnus glutinosa subsp. glutinosa, A. orientalis var. orientalis and A. orientalis var. pubescens; acetonitrile and 0.2% o-phosphoric acid: water mixture with isocratic flow was used as mobile phase. The flow rate was 0.5 ml/min. The quantitative analysis of methanol extracts prepared from the leaves of A. glutinosa subsp. glutinosa, A. orientalis var. orientalis and A. orientalis var. pubescens revealed that shikimic acid amount was found to be 0.6491%, 0.4309% and 0.2452% respectively.

Keywords: Alnus, Betulaceae, HPLC, Quantitative analysis, Shikimic acid

Şikimik asit, çeşitli biyolojik aktivitelere sahip ve aynı zamanda, bazı sentetik maddeler için başlangıç materyali olarak dikkat çeken bir fenolik asittir. Bu çalışmada, Alnus glutinosa subsp. glutinosa, A. orientalis var. orientalis ve A. orientalis var. pubescens ile yüksek performanslı sıvı kromatografisi analizleri yapılmış; asetonitril ve %0.2 o-fosforik asit: su karışımı izokratik akış ile mobil faz olarak kullanılmıştır. Akış hızı 0.5 ml/dk olarak verilmiştir. A. glutinosa subsp. glutinosa, A. orientalis var. orientalis ve A. orientalis var. pubescens yapraklarından hazırlanan metanol ekstrelerinde şikimik asit miktarları sırasıyla, %0.6491, %0.4309 ve %0.2452 olarak tespit edilmiştir.
