Systematic Separation and Purification of Iridoid Glycosides and Crocetin Derivatives from Gardenia jasminoides Ellis by High-speed Counter-current Chromatography

摘要

IntroductionIridoid glycosides and crocetin derivatives are the main bioactive components of Gardenia. The processes of separation of these compounds reported in much of the literature are tedious, time consuming and require multiple chromatographic steps, which results in lower recovery and higher costs.
