Application


  • Analysis of (-)-Hydroxycitric acid lactone in herbal products: A study employed capillary zone electrophoresis for the separation and analysis of (-)-Hydroxycitric acid and its lactone form, demonstrating its application in the quality control of herbal products containing Garcinia atroviridis Griff. This analytical method facilitates the accurate determination of active components in dietary supplements, supporting metabolic and enzyme inhibition studies (Muensritharam et al., 2008).

  • Quantitative analysis in Garcinia species: Research developed an improved liquid chromatographic method for the determination of organic acids including (-)-Hydroxycitric acid in various parts of Garcinia plants. This method is vital for metabolic pathway research, offering precise quantification crucial for studies related to weight loss and enzyme inhibition (Jayaprakasha et al., 2003).
