Application of Capillary Electrophoresis to the Analysis of Bioactive Compounds in Herbal Raw Materials
The article is a summary of scientific reports from the last 16 years (2005–2021) on the use of capillary electrophoresis to analyze polyphenolic compounds, coumarins, amino acids, and alkaloids in teas or different parts of plants used to prepare aqueous infusions, commonly known as “tea” or decoct...
