by Alica Caniova and Eva Brandsteterova
Department of Analytical Chemistry, Slovak Technical University, 812 37 Bratislava, Slovakia
Key words: HPLC, phenolic acids, antioxidants, plant material, sample handling
A short review on the HPLC analysis of phenolic acids, as a group of
antioxidants, in various plant samples (herbs, trees, shrubs, fruit and
vegetable) is presented. The paper is focused mainly on sample preparation
techniques used before HPLC analysis. The HPLC conditions (stationary phases,
mobile phases, detection mode) are summarised and evaluated for method
development of phenolic acids in different plant materials.
