They include flavans, isoflavans, flavanones, flavanonols, flavanols and auronols. In addition, other chirality centres may be observed on the carbohydrate groups attached to the aglycone root, but these will not be considered in the present paper. However, as stereoisomers usually have different bioactivity, analysis methods focusing on these specific flavonoid classes should be of interest to better understand their mode of action and their biosynthetic pathways. In the present review, we have examined chromatographic analyses in the liquid phase (LC) and the supercritical phase (SFC) in achiral and chiral modes to analyse chiral flavonoids. One- and two-dimensional methods are reported, and the different detection modes are also examined.

This microcolumn can be connected using a robust fluidic manifold with removable capillary connections to a conventional gas chromatograph or implemented in a prototype instrument for space exploration. First, benchtop gas chromatographic system was optimized in terms of injector liner volume, internal diameter (I.D.) of the capillary connections and data frequency of detection to ensure an optimal evaluation of column efficiency. Junction capillaries of 100 μm I.D., a liner of 1.2 mm I.D. and a detection acquisition frequency of 100 Hz were found to be the optimal set-up and parameters. Moreover, the stationary phase coating velocity was slowed-down to increase column efficiency by 100 %. Then, the performances of a square cross-section capillary column were compared with those of a conventional circular cross-section column. The coating efficiencies were estimated at 55 % and 42 % for circular and square internal cross-section geometries respectively, demonstrating that the square section geometry did not affect significantly the column performances. Stationary phase films of different thicknesses, from 0.032 to 0.260 µm, were coated on different microchips of the same production batch to assess the influence of film thickness on the chromatographic performances. Microchips performance was evaluated through Golay's plots, and some of the microchips were also studied by optical microscopy. The efficiency and retention capacity of our microchip column is shown to be highly dependent on the film thickness (9,000 plates.m^-1 with <em>k</em> = 0.12 for the thinnest film and up to almost 4,000 plates.m^-1 with <em>k</em> = 0.93 for the thickest film).

The main empirical dependences (linear and polynomial) between the retention factor and the composition of mobile phase (retention function) are discussed taking into consideration a wide range of mobile phase compositions. Two direct chromatographic indices are resulting from these equations: the extrapolated value of retention factor for zero organic content in mobile phase composition (log <em>k_w</em>) and the solvent strength parameter (<em>S</em>), which for a linear retention function is its slope being constant over the entire mobile phase compositions. Another chromatographic index could result from the retention function for zero content of water in mobile phase, but this situation can be applied only for very hydrophobic solutes.
