Abstract:

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a complex system, containing hundreds of components. The chemical profiling of TCMs is an important task and still facing great challenges. In recent years, the on-line two-dimensional liquid-chromatography (2D-LC) methods, emerging and powerful separation techniques, offer new possibilities for the global analysis of complex TCM samples. Recent advances of 2D-LC, including heart-cutting two-dimensional liquid-chromatography (heart-cutting LC-LC) and comprehensive two-dimensional liquid-chromatography (comprehensive LC×LC), applied to TCMs analysis are reviewed. Design and application of 2D-LC combined with turbulent flow chromatography (TFC) or cell membrane chromatography (CMC) applied for TCM bioactive components screening are described.

Key words: bioactive components screening, comprehensive two-dimensional liquid-chromatography (comprehensive LC×, heart-cutting two-dimensional liquid-chromatography (heart-cutting LC-LC), LC), review, traditional Chinese medicine analysis
