Analytical methodologies with ultrasonic extraction and liquid chromatography (LC) were developed for the determination of phenolic compounds in dietary supplements containing Echinacea. The phenolic compounds determined by these methods included caftaric acid, chlorogenic acid, cynarin, echinacoside, and cichoric acid. Samples from tablets, capsules, and bags of tea blends were extracted by sonication for < or = 30 min with methanol-water (60 + 40). The extracts were centrifuged and filtered, and the filtrates were diluted and analyzed by LC using a reversed-phase column and coulometric electrochemical (EC) detection. The mobile phase was acetonitrile-ammonium formate buffer, pH 3.5 (15.3 + 84.7) containing tetrabutyl ammonium hydrogen sulfate as an ion-pairing reagent. Extraction conditions (e.g., composition of the extraction solvent and sonication time) were optimized for different types of samples. Intra- and interday analytical variations were determined, and intraday analyses were performed by 2 independent analysts using 2 different LC systems. Results were generally comparable. The LC method with EC detection showed better sensitivity and selectivity when compared with LC with ultraviolet detection, although results were similar for the 2 methods for major compounds, i.e., caftaric acid, echinacoside, and cichoric acid. The identities of these major compounds found in samples were confirmed by LC/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
