Picrocrocin Content and Quality Categories in Different (345) Worldwide Samples of Saffron (Crocus sativus L.)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2010
In this paper, 345 saffron samples were analyzed from different countries to study their picrocrocin content using different analytical techniques. The E1cm1% of 257 nm results from all samples are inflated in comparison by the high-performance liquid ...

Quantitation of Crocins and Picrocrocin in Saffron by HPLC: Application to Quality Control and Phytochemical Differentiation from Other Crocus Taxa

Planta Medica, 2015
A chromatographic method was developed and fully validated for the determination of the major saffron constituents, i.e., picrocrocin and five major crocins. Dried samples (styles of Crocus sativus and other Crocus taxa) were extracted with MeOH : water (
