The method using capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) allows simultaneous determination of 3-acetyilcoumarine, resveratrol, 6-hydroxycoumarin, catechin, rutin, ferulic acid, quercitrin, kaempferol, fisetin, myricetin, quercetin, caffeic acid, gallic acid and 4 hydroxicinnamic acid in the optimized conditions: borate buffer 20 mmol L-1 (pH 9.2) as work electrolyte containing 15% methanol (v /v), -20 kV potential separation, temperature...
