4) Procedure
Samples Preparation
Accurately weigh 30mg extraction into 10ml volumetric flask. Add Methanol 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 0.2mg/ml in MEOH) using a commercial reference standard of Mogroside ,Sonicate for about 10 minutes and transfer to screw-cap vials and can be stored in the refrigeration.

5) Calculation
Determine the peak area’s logarithm of the Mogroside on the sample chromatogram and compare to the corresponding peaks in the chromatogram for the sample solution.
