A high‐performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the analysis of 3'‐hydroxypterostilbene. This method involves the use of a Luna ® C 18 column with ultraviolet detection at 325 nm. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile, water and formic acid (50:50:0.01, v/v/v) with a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The calibration curves were linear over the range 0.5–100.0 µg/mL. The mean extraction efficiency was between 97.40 and 111.16%. The precision of the assay was 0.196–14.39% (RSD%), and within 15% at the limit of quantitation (0.5 µg/mL). The bias of the assay was <16% and within 15% at the limit of quantitation. This assay was successfully applied to pre‐clinical pharmacokinetic samples from rat urine and serum.
