Abstract:
Coumarins are a large group of compounds that are naturally present in plant tissues and that exhibit a wide range of pharmacological properties. Analytical methods based on chromatographic techniques and conventional detectors are inadequate to accurately analyze coumarins in complex matrices such as plant extracts. In this article a new method based on a modified particle beam liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry interface is described. The method allows specific and accurate determination of several coumarins in biological matrices. An application regarding the analysis of 18 coumarins in the extract of Smyrnium perfoliatum L. is also reported.
