    Abstract:
    The present work describes isolation of bioactive lipophilic constituent [namely, hyperforin from St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum L.)], of approximately 98% purity by semipreparative high-performance liquid chromatography (LC). The extraction, isolation, and analysis of the collected compound is performed without the use of antioxidants and inert gas atmospheres at all the stages. Hyperforin, separated isocratically on a 12microm semiprep column, is obtained in high purity, lyophilized after the removal of the organic phase, and preserved at a low temperature. The purity of the collected marker compound is estimated by the use of LC-mass spectrometry and spectroscopic techniques.
