Abstract

<p>Relatively simple, but very reliable, one-step qualitative/quantitative HPLC analysis of four key flavonoids, and a phenolcarboxylic acid, has been introduced. For substrate/sample preparations, either triple percolations, using 70% ethanol-water (V/V), or/and ultrasonic bath methanol extractions, were carried out to obtain the desired isolates yielding quercetin, isoquercitrin, hyperoside, vitexin and chlorogenic acid. The method is linear, over the studied range of 1.05 <span style="background-color: var(--bs-body-bg); font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align);">– </span><span style="background-color: var(--bs-body-bg); font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align);">210.00, 6.25 </span><span style="font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align); background-color: var(--bs-body-bg);">–</span><span style="font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align); background-color: var(--bs-body-bg);"> </span><span style="font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align); background-color: var(--bs-body-bg);"> 250.00, 25.00 – </span><span style="font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align); background-color: var(--bs-body-bg);">250.00, 7.50 – 150.00 and 1.04 - 10.40 µg/mL for chlorogenic acid, vitexin, hyperoside, isoquercitrin and </span><span style="font-weight: var(--bs-body-font-weight); text-align: var(--bs-body-text-align); background-color: var(--bs-body-bg);">quercetin, respectively.
