Remarks | Time course of the transformation of abrusin 2"-O-β-D-apioside (1) Abrusin 2"-O-β-D-apioside (1, 10 mmol in 200 ml DMSO) was added to a human fecal suspension (5%, 3.8 ml) and incubated at 37°C in an anaerobic incubator. Samples were picked up at intervals and extracted with BuOH (saturated with water and acidified with CH3COOH, 200 ml). After centrifugation at 8,800 × g for 5 min, 100 ml of the BuOH layer was evaporated in vacuo to give a residue. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (100 ml) and filtered through a Gelman filter (0.45 μm). The metabolites in the MeOH filtrate were analyzed by HPLC using calibration lines obtained with isolated compounds (5 and 6) or authentic samples (1, 2, 7 and 8). [Li et al., Chem. Pharm.
