Oasis MCX Extraction Method
Sample

Sample Pre-preparation

100 mg sample is extracted with 25 mL of ethanol:water (70:30) 1 mL of the ethanolic extract is diluted 1:3 with water (~ pH 7)

  • Recovery, measured with certified standards at 100 ppm in reagent water, was greater than 85 % for all compounds
  • All analyses gave results within ± 35 % of the expected values with the exception of the liquid supplement (see goldenseal analysis)
  • The selective SPE extraction and cleanup procedure provided a convenient analysis of echinacea phenolics in complex matrix such as in herbal tea
