Abstract
The electrophoretic behaviour of 13 flavonoids commonly found in medicinal plants has been studied. The performance of two modes of separation, capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC), was assessed and compared. MEKC was found to be more effective for separation of the analytes. The effect of structure on the electrophoretic behaviour of the flavonoids is also discussed.
