Geographical Discrimination in Curcuminoids Content of Turmeric Assessed by Rapid UPLC-DAD Validated Analytical Method.

ABSTRACT: A fast and reliable ultra-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection method was developed and validated for the quantitative assessment of turmeric extracts from different geographical locations. Acclaim RSLC PolarAdvantage II column (2.2 μm, 2.1 × 100 mm) was used to analyze individual curcuminoids (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin) from turmeric samples. The detection was done on ultraviolet absorbance at 425 nm and the column temperature was maintained at 45 °C. A mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water was found to be suitable for separation, at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with linear gradient elution. Linearity, specificity, precision, recovery and robustness were measured to validate the method and instrument. Under the described conditions, cur
