    A standardized HPLC-PDA-ESI/MS profiling method was used to identify the phenolic components of Erigeron breviscapus and breviscapine. A general phenolic quantification method was used to quantify the components. As a result,33 hydroxycinnamates and 16 flavonoids were detected in E. breviscapus, a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine for treating cardiocerebral diseases. Eighteen flavonoids were detected in breviscapine,an E. breviscapus derived drug. The hydroxycinnamates were quantified using HPLC-PDA at the detection wavelength of 326 nm and the mole relative response factors (MRRF). Dried chlorogenic acid was used as calibration standard. Similarly,8 apigenins,4 luteolins,3 flavonol 3-O-glycosides,and the 7-O-glucuronides of quercetin and isorhamnetin were quantified using apigenin (at 336 nm) and rutin (at 354 nm) as calibration standards and MRRF value for each compound. This was the first detection of over 10 flavonoids in breviscapine,and the quantification of each phenolic component in E. breviscapus.

    The oral bioavailability of genistein (GE) in its benzensulfonate prodrug was studied in search for new drug or food functional ingredient. The plasma were collected at different points of time after the intragastric or intravenous administration of genistein benzensulfonate (GB) 40 mg/kg to rats. The GB and GE contents in plasma were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The compartment model was fitted and pharma cokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS 2.1.1. The results indicated that the dynamic processes of GE was consistent with two compartment model after intragastric or intravenous administration of GB prodrug to rats. The relative oral bioavailability of GE in prodrug GB was 110.9%. In conclusion, the above results demonstrated that the oral bioavailability of GE in prodrug had been improved remarkably.
