Abstract
Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi (Fabaceae) is a medicinal plant widely used in the traditional Chinese medicine. Pueraria isoflavones are currently a significant target in the pharmaceutical and nutritional research owing to their numerous health promoting properties. Many commercial preparations of isoflavone extracts from the root of the plant are sold as dietary supplements. Nowadays research is more and more focused on the flower of P. lobata and its isoflavone constituents. The efficacy and the safety of such phytopreparations depend on the actual content of active compounds, which is directly linked to the quality of the raw material used for the production. This fact indicates the need for improved quality control.
