The analyses of eighteen different C-skeleton sesquiterpene lactone (S
L) standards and of extracts of Cardus benedictus L. and Artemisia umb
elliformis Lam. were carried out by SFC-UV. SLs of the groups of germa
cranolides, guaianolides, eudesmanolides, seco-eudesmanolides and hele
nanolides were investigated. Different stationary phases, different de
nsities, several modifiers and modifier programmes were applied in ord
er to optimize their separation. A CN stationary phase with MeOH-water
(95:5) as modifier for supercritical CO2 was the most successful comb
ination in the separation of the SLs investigated. (C) 1997 Elsevier S
