Screening Of Chemical Compounds Purified From Biological Sources

US Patent:
2008025, Oct 16, 2008
Filed:
Mar 18, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/077256
Inventors:
Gary Eldridge - San Diego CA, US
Lu Zeng - San Diego CA, US
Peader Cremin - San Diego CA, US
Chris Lee - Yorba Linda CA, US
Helene C. Vervoort - Chelmsford MA, US
Marilyn Ghanem - St. Louis MO, US
International Classification:
C40B 30/00, C40B 50/00
US Classification:
506 12, 506 23
Abstract:
A method of producing a chemical compound library comprises extracting at least one extract from at least one species of plant; processing at least one of the extract(s) to remove at least one type of chemical interference to produce a processed extract; chromatographically separating the processed extract into a plurality of chromatographic fractions, each containing an amount of chemical compounds; determining the amount of chemical compounds in at least one of the chromatographic fractions; and normalizing the chromatographic fractions in which the amounts were determined to produce normalized chromatographic fractions, each such fraction comprising from about 1 microgram to about 500 micrograms of each of from one to seven chemical compounds that were present in lower concentrations in the extract and that each have a log P of from about −1 to about 5 and a molecular weight less than about 1000 Daltons; thereby to produce a chemical compound library from at least one species of plant.
