Objective: To develop an HPLC method for simultaneous determination of rutin, hyperoside, quercetin and kaempferol in Malus prunifolia from Shanxi province in China.

Method: The separation was performed on a Hypersil C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm), using a gradient elution with methanol-water containing 0.2% phosphoric acid as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1.0 mL x min(-1), the detection wavelength was 360 nm and the temperature of column was 25 degrees T.

Result: The linear ranges of rutin, hyperoside, quercetin and kaempferol were 1.87-46.67 mg x L(-1), 6.40-160.0 mg x L(-1), 3.33-83.33 mg x L(-1), 0.80-20.00 mg x L(-1), respectively. The average recoveries (n=6) of the four constituents were 99.2% (RSD 2.9%), 98.2% (RSD 1.9%), 97.4% (RSD 2.3%), 97.2% (RSD 1.3%), respectively.

Conclusion: The method was simple, accurate and can be used to evaluate medicinal value of Malus prunifolia.

Grafting can facilitate better scion performance and is widely used in plants. Numerous studies have studied the involvement of mRNAs, small RNAs, and epigenetic regulations in the grafting process. However, it remains unclear whether the mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification participates in the apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.

Following the Fukushima nuclear accident in March 2011, radiocesium (rCs) contamination in deciduous trees remains over 10 years later even though the trees were leafless at the time of the accident. This phenomenon is considered to be the result of repeated retranslocation of rCs that initially penetrated the bark into the internal tissues. To implement effective measures after a possible accident in the future, it is necessary to clarify how rCs is translocated in the tree after penetration.
