Commercial Rice Extract Analyzed Easily.
Click HERE for Column Ordering Information.

A commercial rice extract was analyzed and peaks were assigned based on retention times and m/z values for the compounds of interest using the Cogent Phenyl Hydride Column . After method validation the developed procedure can be used to evaluate the quality of rice and to develop the best extraction procedure.

Peaks:
1. 3,4-Hydroxybenzoic Acid 153 m/z [M-H]–
2. Vanillic Acid 167 m/z [M-H]–
3. p-Coumaric Acid 163 m/z [M-H]–
4. Ferulic Acid 193 m/z [M-H]–
5. 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-Hydroxycinnamic Acid 223 m/z [M-H]–
