Abstract Ellagic acid is an important phytochemical present in different plants such as Strawberry, Grapes, Blackberry, Raspberry etc. Chemically, ellagic acid is 2, 3, 7, 8-tetrahydroxychromeno [5, 4, 3-cde] chromene-5, 10-dione. It is an organic heterotetracyclic compound resulting from the dimerization of gallic acid molecules by oxidative aromatic coupling with intramolecular lactonization. Ellagic acid has been reported for various pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, antioxidant, anti-mutagenic etc. Various analytical methods based on spectrophotometry, chromatography, hyphenated techniques, capillary zone electrophoresis etc. have been developed for identification and quantification of ellagic acid in natural sources and formulations. The present review provides detailed information on quantitative analysis of ellagic acid present in Strawberry, Grapes, Blackberry, Raspberry, Cranberry; Syzygium cumini seed extract, Woodfordia fruticosa plant extract, Potentilla species extracts etc. It also focuses on analytical methods for quantification of ellagic acid in herbal and traditional formulations such as Ashwagandharishta, Triphala churna, Dhatrinisha churna, Arjunarishta, Manjisthadi churna.

鞣花酸定量分析方法的简要回顾

摘要 鞣花酸是草莓、葡萄、黑莓、覆盆子等不同植物中一种重要的植物化学物质。化学上，鞣花酸是 2, 3, 7, 8-四羟基色烯 [5, 4, 3-cde] 色烯-5, 10 - 迪奥内。它是一种有机杂四环化合物，由没食子酸分子通过氧化芳烃偶联和分子内内酯化作用二聚而成。据报道，鞣花酸具有多种药理活性，如抗炎、神经保护、心脏保护、抗氧化、抗诱变等。 基于分光光度法、色谱法、联用技术、毛细管区带电泳等的各种分析方法已被开发用于鉴定和定量鞣花酸在天然来源和配方中的含量。本综述提供了关于草莓、葡萄、黑莓、覆盆子、蔓越莓中存在的鞣花酸的定量分析的详细信息；Syzygium cumini 种子提取物、Woodfordia fruticosa 植物提取物、Potentilla 物种提取物等。它还侧重于对草药和传统配方（如 Ashwagandharishta、Triphala churna、Dhatrinisha churna、Arjunarishta、Manjisthadi churna）中鞣花酸的定量分析方法。
