Rapid screening and characterization of natural antioxidants in Polygonum viviparum by an on-line system integrating the pressurised liquid micro-extraction, HPLC-DAD-QTOF-MS/MS analysis and antioxidant assay

Rapid discovery of active ingredients from complex matrices is one of great challenges for modern drug development. Traditional methods often require many sample treatment steps, including an extraction step with exclusively dedicated solvents followed by repeated separation and activities assessment. This present work described an integrated analytical setup for natural antioxidants discovery in which the online extraction (OLE) of a solid...
