Capillary electrophoresis of glucosinolates and their degradation products

Glucosinolates are important natural products occurring mainly in plants of the Cruciferae family. This review article is aimed at describing the recent progress made in capillary electrophoresis of glucosinolates and their degradation products. It describes the various electrophoretic systems and detection schemes introduced to date for the capillary electrophoresis (CE) of glucosinolates and their degradation products. Also included in this review are the applications of CE to the qualitative and quantitative determination of glucosinolates and their degradation products in plant extracts.
