Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Coumarin

Coumarin is an aromatic chemical that is used as a fragrance ingredient. It has a sweet earthy scent and is typically found in Tonka beans, cinnamon, woodruff, bison grass, and green tea. Besides a pleasant smell it had anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties.

Coumarin an be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom R1 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a phosphoric acid buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
