“…Normal-phase HPLC is usually used for isolation of the individual compounds [2, 4 6, 10, 14] whereas RP chromatography is used for quantitative determination [4,[7][8][9]. The disadvantages of some of the methods are quantification by external standardization [7,10] by comparison of the peak areas of the substances with those from commercial mixtures [4,8], the need for two analyses for the determination of the six natural pyrethrins [5] or insufficient separation of the compounds [6,9]. Another problem in the analysis of the natural pyrethrins is that the individual substances are not commercially available.…”
