Separation of crocetin glycosyl esters by high-performance liquid chromatography

PTR-TOF-MS and HPLC analysis in the characterization of saffron (Crocus sativus L.) from Italy and Iran

“…Many papers deal with analytical aspects to set up methods for the separation and determination of the biological active compounds (Alonso et al, 2001;Li et al, 1999;Pfander & Rychener, 1982;Tarantilis, Polissiou, & Manfait, 1994;Tarantilis, Tsoupras, & Polissiou, 1995), and aroma components (Carmon et al, 2006;Carmona et al, 2007;D'Auria, Mauriello, Racioppi, & Rana, 2006;Loskutov, Beninger, Hosfield, & Sink, 2000;Lozano, Delgado, Gomez, Rubio, & Iborra, 2000;Tarantilis & Polissiou, 1997).…”

TLC Preparative Purification of Picrocrocin, HTCC and Crocin from Saffron

“…Past research on this species has been focused on the quality and adulteration detection of commercial saffron (Madan et al, 1966;Mousseron-Canet et al, 1966;Zarghami and Heinz, 1971;Bucheker and Eugster, 1973;Sampathu et al, 1984), as well as on the in vitro proliferation of Crocus sutivus tissues (Himeno and Sano, 1987;Chichirico and Grilli Caiola, 1987;Sano and Himeno, 1987;Himeno et al, 1988;Koyama et al, 1988;Sarma et al, 1990;Fakhrai and Evans 1990;Visvanath et al, 1990). Also there are published reports concerning analytical separation and quantitation of saffron compounds by HPLC techniques (Pfander et al, 1980;Pfander and Richener, 1982;Himeno and Sano, 1987;Koyama et al, 1988;Sarma et al, 1990) or by TLC (Sano Fakhrai and Evans, 1990;Visvanath et al, 1990). However, there is little information on the isolation and further purification of crocin, picrocrocin and HTCC.…”

Production Practices and Quality Assessment of Food Crops Volume 1

“…Pfander and Rychener (1982) found that crocin 1 represents the 40-45% of the saffron aqueous extract, followed by the crocetin-(β-D-gentiobiosyl)-(β-D-glucosyl) ester (35%), the crocetindi-(β-D-glucosyl) ester (ca.
