Simultaneous Determination and Comparison of Phenolic Bioactives among Three Main Kinds of Edible Chrysanthemums.

In this study, we report a simple and reliable high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection method for simultaneous and quantitative analysis and comparison of major phenolic compounds dominant phytochemicals in Chrysanthemum morifolium, Florists chrysanthemum and snow chrysanthemum (Coreopsis tinctoria or C. tinctoria). The chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed phase C18 column with a mobile phase of water [containing 0.

Chiral stationary phase based on cellulose derivative coated polymer microspheres and its separation performance.

Chiral stationary phases (CSPs) have always been research hotspot in enantiomer separation. Currently, most of the CSPs are based on silica platform. In this research, monodisperse, porous glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbenzene copolymer particles (poly(GMA-DVB)) were designed and prepared.

Supercritical fluid CO extraction of three polymethoxyflavones from Citri reticulatae pericarpium and subsequent preparative separation by continuous high-speed counter-current chromatography.

Polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) are widely found in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP) and have been investigated with a broad spectrum of biological activities as well as health promoting properties. However, separation of the PMFs from a complex sample, especially preparative separation of these PMFs with high purity, remains challenging. In the present study, an efficient method based on supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and continuous high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) has been developed for extracting and preparative purification PMFs from CRP.

Investigation on performance of zirconia and magnesia-zirconia stationary phases in hydrophilic interaction chromatography.

In the current study, zirconia (ZrO2) and its composite, magnesia-zirconia (MgO-ZrO2), were prepared as the hydrophilic interaction chromatographic (HILIC) stationary phases (SPs). Different experimental variables including water content, pH and buffer concentration in the mobile phase (MP) as well as column temperature were systematically studied to permit an in-depth understanding of the chromatographic properties of the mentioned SPs and to explore the retention mechanism further on. The results were compared with a native SiO2 column.
