Bioactive plant secondary metabolites tend to occur in complex mixtures in botanical drugs (phytophamceuticals), and the design of procedures for the analysis of such compounds requires a thorough understanding of the phytochemistry involved and considerable ingenuity on the part of the analyst. Several published chromatographic and chromatographic/spectroscopicanalytical methods for three botanical products of commercial importance are reviewed, namely, those from Gingko biloba, Croton tiglium, and Stevia rebaudiana. Key Words:Analysis; Chromatography; Combined chromatographylspectroscopy;Botanical drugs; Phytophaxmaceuticals

INTRODUCTION THERE IS A BROAD AND increasing interest in the development of analytical methods for plant secondary metabolites from crude plant material in the agrochemical, food, pharmaceutical, and other industries. The design of these methods typically necessitates considerations of extraction, solvent partitioning, purification, identification, and quantification procedures. Chromatographic meth-

ods, in particular high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), are used extensively for plant natural product purification, and while certain biochemical, chemical, electrometric, and radiometric procedures may be e
