Abstract

Two calibration models, partial least squares (PLS) and principal component regression (PCR), were applied to the simultaneous determination of quercetin and luteolin by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection (ECD). The proposed methods were successfully applied to the analysis of dried flower samples. It was found that the relative standard errors of prediction (RSEP) for the validation set of PLS of quercetin and luteolin was 1.31 and 2.23%, and the RSEP of PCR was found to be 3.56 and 4.32%, respectively. Several dried flower samples were analysed and the recoveries were in the range of 95.9–103.3%.
