18 65 35
22 90 10
25 90 10
4) Procedure
Samples Preparation
Accurately weigh 30mg extraction into 50ml volumetric flask. Add Alcohol:water=7:3(v/v) to volume and sonicate to mix, filter through a 0.45μm PTFE filter into a screw cap vial and proceed with the analysis.
Standard preparation /calibration
Prepare a standard solution (approximately 0.1mg/ml in Alcohol:water=7:3 ) using a standard of Cichoric acid ，Sonicate for about 10 minutes and transfer to screw-cap vials and can be stored in the refrigeration.
5) Calculation
Determine the peak areas of the Cichoric acid on the sample chromatogram and compare to the corresponding peaks in the chromatogram for the standard solution. Calculate the weight percent.
