Quinones are a typical group of secondary metabolites derived from plants. Depending on the number of benzene rings in the structural skeleton, quinones are divided into benzoquinones, naphthoquinones and anthraquinones. Quinones are widely distributed in the plant kingdom and mainly exist in higher plants, such as Polygonaceae, Rubiaceae, Leguminosae, Rhamnaceae, Labiatae, and Boraginaceae families. Moreover, a number of quinones present significant biological activities, such as the purgative effect of quinones isolated from Rheum officinale L., as well as the antibacterial and anti-cancer activities of juglone and plumbagin isolated from Juglans mandshurica Maxim and Plumbago pearsonii L.Bolus, respectively[1].

Qualitative or quantitative analysis plays an important role in the application of quinones. Alfa Chemistry not only has an experienced team with comprehensive knowledge of quinones, but also has advanced analysis instruments and analysis methods. We will provide you with high quality quinones analysis services. Please contact us if you need help.
