Through several steps of in vitro based bioassay-guided fractionation, three highly potent anti-mycobacterial constituents (1-2 microg/mL minimum inhibitory concentrations) were isolated from Dracaena angustifolia Roxb. (Dracaenaceae). Isolation was expedited due to the application of new techniques in counter-current chromatography (CCC). The first of these applications, gradient-array CCC, enables the expansion of the high-resolution window (sweet spot) by applying successive CCC separations in different solvent systems to a crude extract. Further fractionation was also performed using the recently designed 1L fast-centrifugal partition chromatography (FCPC) rotor with the solvent system hexane:methyl-tert butylether:acetonitrile (10:1:10). Results indicated that gradient-array CCC and high-capacity FCPC can facilitate drug discovery efforts from complex natural products, increase reproducibility of separation schemes, and provide more rigid dereplication of previously isolated bioactive compounds.
