- Abstract
Willow bark water extracts contain a mixture of chemically heterogeneous compounds. Fast screening techniques of the extracts are often needed to obtain information on the profile of bioactive and/or other valuable components in the extract. This is, however, a challenging task due to the different chemical structures of the components. Willow bark extract from the hybrid Karin contains several bioactive compounds such as aromatic picein, triandrin, and (+)-catechin. Willow bark extract also contains significant amounts of the monosaccharides fructose and glucose. Here, we demonstrate the applicability of hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography, coupled with evaporative light scattering and ultraviolet detectors, for the simultaneous separation and quantification of major aromatic compounds and monosaccharides from the willow bark extract. The ternary eluent mixture consisting of acetonitrile, water, and methanol enabled the baseline separation of the main components in the extract in a short analysis time, which makes this method ideal for fast screening of the plant extracts and investigating the purity of fractionated bioactive compounds.
