The crude extract was fractionated by Centrifugal Partition Chromatography (CPC). It is based on liquid-liquid compound partitioning between two nonmiscible liquid phases that stay close to their thermodynamic equilibrium. The absence of solid chromatographic support facilitates the fractionation of complex samples, eliminates the risk of stationary phase overloading or clogging, and avoids the potential deterioration of chemical compounds, thus leading to mass recovery rates close to 100 %.
