Abstract
Centrifugal partition chromatography linked with evaporative light scattering detection has been investigated to achieve the large scale-up isolation of oraposide which is a phenylpropanoid glycoside having a radical-scavenging activity. A two-phase solvent system has been studied to improve the yield of pure product and to decrease the cost of purification. A comparison with preparative HPLC has been made.
