A new high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for chlorogenic acid determination in sunflower seeds is described. This method offers a relatively rapid and highly selective way to separate chlorogenic acid from caffeic acid and other polyphenolic compounds in sunflower seeds. The HPLC method results are compared with those of the spectrophotometric method and no significant difference is shown between methods using confectionery seeds but significant differences are shown with the oilseed varieties.
