Research Demonstrates Superior Resolution for Kavalactone Standards

This scientific application note focuses on the analysis of 9 Kavalactones using a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Kavalactones are naturally occurring compounds found in the roots of the kava plant. This application highlights the use of the YMC-Triart C8 column and its superior resolution compared to traditional C18 stationary phases, allowing for the clear separation of these compounds. The research demonstrates the effectiveness of the method for analyzing Kavalactones in both standard solutions and commercial kava formulations.

See the Application Note.
