1 Abstract Charles University in Prague Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Botany Author: Vendula Ježková Supervisor: RNDr. Jitka Vytlačilová, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Evaluation of natural substances using in vivo tests with Artemia salina Biological activity evaluation of substances is important because of toxic effect's assessment on chemical and physiological functions of organisms and their parts. For acute toxicity evaluation was used crustacean Artemia salina in this study. They were tested aqueouses extracts isolated from various plant drugs of Salviae folium, Apii semen, Coptidis rhizoma, Evodiae fructus, Zanthoxyli radix and Ziziphi fructus and two isolated alkaloids galanthamine and huperzine A. For each extract and alkaloid was calculated value of lethal concentration LC50. Results of this study showned, that the extract of Coptis chinensis, LC50 = 0,134 ± 0,004 mg/ml, had most toxic effects. Further the extract's toxicity decreased in the order Ziziphus jujuba, LC50 = 0,817 ± 0,165 mg/m > Zanthoxylum nitidum, LC50 = 1,154 ± 0,015 mg/ml > Salvia officinalis, LC50 = 2,074 ±0,462 mg/ml > Evodia rutaecarpa, LC50 = 2,166 ± 0,244 mg/ml > Apium graveolens, LC50 = 4,041 ± 0,108 mg/ml. Tested alkaloids don't demonstrated any toxicity activity in determinated...
