extraction and separation

content determination

stability and biological activities. Many studies showed that coniferyl ferulate is poorly unstable and easy to decompose

especially in the condition of strong light and high temperature

and so far the pressurized liquid extraction method was a better way to extract and high performance liquid was the method common used to content determination; Many of the strong pharmaceutical activities such as antimicrobial
