Avicularin

All solvents, reagents, and standards used were of analytical grade. Acetonitrile and acetic acid were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Buchs, Switzerland), ethanol was obtained from AB Stumbras (Kaunas, Lithuania), hyperoside, rutin, quercitrin, phloridzin, procyanidin B1, procyanidin B2 and chlorogenic acid standards were purchased from Extrasynthese (Genay, France), reynoutrin, (+)-catechin and (−)-epicatechin–from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Steinheim, Germany), and avicularin, procyanidin C1 and isoquercitrin–from Chromadex (Santa Ana, CA, USA). Purified deionized water used in the tests was prepared with the Milli-Q^® (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) water purification system.

All solvents, reagents, and standards used were of analytical grade. Acetonitrile, acetic acid, D(+)-glucose monohydrate, hypromellose, Aerosil^TM 200, microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide and starch were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Buchs, Switzerland), and ethanol was obtained from Stumbras AB (Kaunas, Lithuania). Hyperoside, rutin, quercitrin, phloridzin, procyanidin B1, procyanidin B2, and chlorogenic acid standards were purchased from Extrasynthese (Genay, France), reynoutrin, (+)-catechin and (−)-epicatechin were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Buchs, Switzerland), and avicularin, procyanidin C1, and isoquercitrin were purchased from Chromadex (Santa Ana, USA). In this study, we used deionized water produced by the Milli-Q^® (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) water purification system.

All the solvents, reagents, and standards used were of analytical grade. Acetonitrile and acetic acid were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Buchs, Switzerland) and ethanol from Stumbras AB (Kaunas, Lithuania). Hyperoside, rutin, quercitrin, phloridzin, phloretin, caffeic acid, and chlorogenic acid standards were purchased from Extrasynthese (Genay, France), (+)-catechin and (–)-epicatechin from Fluka (Buchs, Switzerland) and avicularin and isoquercitrin from Chromadex (Santa Ana, USA). 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH^•) radical, 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS), potassium persulfate, sodium acetate trihydrate, iron (III) chloride hexahydrate, and 2,4,6-tripyridyl-s-triazine (TPTZ) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Steinheim, Germany). Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, gallic acid monohydrate, sodium carbonate, aluminum chloride hexahydrate, and hexamethylenetetramine were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich GmbH (Buchs, Switzerland). Deionized water, produced by the Crystal E high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC, Adrona SIA, Riga, Latvia) water purification system, was used.
