Chlorophyll Biodegradation Products from Hamamelis Virgianana Autumnal Leaves

Journal Title: International Journal for Quality Research - Year 2009, Vol 3, Issue 3

Abstract

The biodegradation of bioorganic solid waste involves several million tons of senescent plant leaves every autumn. Chemical evidence about bioorganic matter contained in the senescent leaves remains undetermined. The biodegradation of senescent leaves comprises a series of biodegradation transitions that bring about changes in leaf texture, metabolic changes and color. Leaves turn yellow as a result of chlorophyll biodegradation. Chlorophyll biodegradation products, in the autumnal leaves of Hamamelis virginiana, Hamamelidaceae, were investigated. Here is a report on one chlorophyll biodegradation product isolated from yellow Hamamelis virginiana, Hamamelidaceae autumnal leaves. The structure of the isolated chlorophyll biodegradation product was elucidated by spectroscopic and spectrometric data. The isolated chlorophyll biodegradation product was an UNCC (Urobilinogenic Non – fluorescent Chlorophyll Catabolite).
