Abstract
The article is a summary of scientific reports from the last 16 years (2005-2021) on the use of capillary electrophoresis to analyze polyphenolic compounds, coumarins, amino acids, and alkaloids in teas or different parts of plants used to prepare aqueous infusions, commonly known as "tea" or decoctions. This literature review is based on PRISMA guidelines and articles selected in base of criteria carried out using PICOS (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, Study type). The analysis showed that over 60% of articles included in this manuscript comes from China. The literature review shows that for the selective electrophoretic separation of polyphenolic and flavonoid compounds, the most frequently used capillary electromigration technique is capillary electrophoresis with ultraviolet detection. Nevertheless, the use of capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry allows for the sensitive determination of analytes with a lower limit of detection and gives hope for routine use in the analysis of functional foods. Moreover, using the modifications in electrochemical techniques allows methods sensitivity reduction along with the reduction of analysis time.

Abstract
Genistin is a type of isoflavone glycoside and has a broad range of health benefits. It is found in a variety of dietary plants, such as soybean, kudzu (Japanese arrowroot), and other plant-based products. Genistin has been described to have several beneficial health impacts, such as decreasing the risk of osteoporosis and post-menopausal symptoms, as well as anti-cancer, anti-oxidative, cardioprotective, anti-apoptotic, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, and anti-microbial activities. It may also assist individuals with metabolic syndrome. This review summarizes some of the molecular impacts and prospective roles of genistin in maintaining and treatment of health disorders. The review could help to develop novel genistin medicine with significant health benefits for application in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical fields.

Abstract
Sophora japonica L. fruit prevents bone loss by inhibiting osteoclast activity. We hypothesized that S japonica L. extracts could promote osteoblast differentiation. To test this hypothesis, we investigated the effect of S japonica L. on osteoblast differentiation and identified the bioactive compound(s) from S japonica L. The mature fruit of S japonica L. was partitioned with ethanol, hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), ethyl acetate, and butanol, and their effects were tested on osteoblast differentiation of C3H10T1/2 cells. DCM fractionated extracts were identified as the most osteogenic fractions. DCM fractionated extracts dose-dependently stimulated alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization. The DCM fractions also induced expression of osteoblast markers such as alkaline phosphatase, osterix, and osteocalcin in C3H10T1/2 and primary bone marrow cells. Genistein was found abundantly in the DCM fractions. Furthermore, the genistein and DCM fractions similarly modulated the expression of estrogen target genes and were both active in transfection assays that measured estrogen agonistic activity. Finally, pharmacological inhibition by treatment with an estrogen receptor antagonist or specific inhibition of gene expression by small interference RNAs targeted to estrogen receptor-β abolished the effects of the DCM extracts, further supporting the idea that the genistein in the DCM extracts mediated the pro-osteogenic effects. Taken together, we identified genistein as the key phytoestrogen responsible for the effects of S japonica L. on osteoblast differentiation.

Abstract
Previous studies showed that feeding diets containing the mature fruits of Sophora japonica L. prevented body weight gain and reduced fat mass in high-fat diet-induced obese mice. This observation has led to the hypothesis that extracts from S. japonica L. may inhibit adipocyte differentiation of preadipocytes. To elucidate the possible mechanisms for the anti-obesity action of S. japonica L., its effects on adipocyte differentiation were investigated in C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells and 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells. The mature fruit of S. japonica L. was partitioned with ethanol, hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate (EtOAc), and butanol to identify the active fractions. The EtOAc fraction extracts inhibited morphological differentiation and lipid accumulation in the C3H10T1/2 and 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Molecular studies indicated that the EtOAc fraction extracts also reduced the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and other adipocyte markers. Furthermore, among the fractions, the EtOAc fraction extracts had the highest total phenolic contents, suggesting that the polyphenols in the EtOAc fractions mediated the anti-adipogenic effects. Finally, high-performance liquid chromatography identified genistein, a known anti-adipogenic compound, as the probable mediator of the anti-adipogenic effects of the EtOAc fractions. This work validates the beneficial roles of S. japonica L. in controlling body weight and obesity-related metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Phytoestrogens are plant compounds that mimic the actions of endogenous estrogens. The abundance of these chemicals in nature and their potential effects on health require the development of a convenient method to detect phytoestrogens. We have developed a nanoparticle (NP)-conjugated FRET probe based on the human estrogen receptor α (ER) ligand-binding domain (LBD) to detect phytoestrogens. The NP-conjugated FRET probe showed fluorescence signals for genistein, resveratrol and daidzein compounds with Δ ratios of 1.65, 2.60 and 1.37 respectively, which are approximately six times greater compared to individual FRET probes. A significantly higher signal for resveratrol versus genistein and daidzein indicates that the probe can differentiate between antagonistic phytoalexin substances and agonistic isoflavone compounds. NP-conjugated probes demonstrated a wide dynamic range, ranging from 10(-18) to 10(-1) M with EC(50) values of 9.6 × 10(-10), 9.0 × 10(-10) and 9.2 × 10(-10) M for genistein, daidzein and resveratrol respectively, whereas individual probes detected concentrations of 10(-13) to 10(-4) M for phytoestrogens compounds. The time profile revealed that the NP-conjugated probe is stable over 30 h and there is not a significant deviation in the FRET signal at room temperature. These data demonstrate that conjugation of a FRET probe to nanoparticles is able to serve as an effective FRET sensor for monitoring bioactive compounds with significantly increased sensitivity, dynamic range and stability.

Abstract
In recent years, increasing knowledge of the positive health effects of food polyphenols has prompted the need to develop new separation techniques for their extraction, fractionation and analysis. This article provides an updated and exhaustive review of the application of counter-current chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and their hyphenation with mass spectrometry to the study of food polyphenols. Flavonoids constitute the largest class of polyphenols, widely spread in the plant kingdom and common in human diet which has been the most widely studied with respect to their antioxidant and biological activities. The main subgroups are anthocyanins, catechins, isoflavones, flavonols and flavones. They are reported to exhibit antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic, anti-thrombotic, and immune modulating functions, among others. Since red fruit anthocyanins, soy isoflavones and flavanols from grapes and teas are currently the most used phenolic compounds for producing new nutraceuticals and functional foods, this review is focused on these three flavonoid groups.

Abstract
In separations in capillaries or on chips, the most predominant detectors outside of the field of proteomics are electrochemical (EC) and optical. These detectors operate in the μM to pM range on nL peak volumes with ms time resolution. The driving forces for improvement are different for the two classes of detectors.With EC detectors, there are two limitations that the field is trying to overcome. One is the ever-present surface of the electrode which, while often advantageous for its catalytic or adsorptive properties, is also frequently responsible for changes in sensitivity over time. The other is the decoupling of the electrical systems that operate electrokinetic separations from the system operating the detector.With optical detectors, there are similarly a small number of important limitations. One is the need to bring the portability (size, weight and power requirements) of the detection system into the range of EC detectors. The other is broadening and simplifying the applications of fluorescence detection, as it almost always involves derivatization.Limitations aside, the ability to make detector electrodes and focused laser beams of the order of 1 μm in size, and the rapid time response of both detectors has vaulted capillary and chip separations to the forefront of small sample, fast, low mass-detection limit analysis.

Abstract
A rapid and efficient micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) method was developed to analyze edgeworoside C (1), kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (2) and rutin (3) in the alabastrum of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl. for the first time. The factors that affect the separation were studied, such as the concentrations of the buffer, SDS, and organic modifier, the apparent pH, the applied voltage and temperature. The analytes were well separated within 15 min with an electrolyte containing 25 mM Na(2)B(4)O(7), 30 mM NaH(2)PO(4), 60mM SDS and 15% acetonitrile (pH(*) 9.1) at 25 kV and 15 degrees C. The correlation coefficients between the peak areas of analytes and the corresponding concentrations were 0.9976-0.9981 under the optimum conditions. The relative standard deviations (R.S.D.) of the migration time and peak area were in the range 0.6-1.7 and 1.9-5.3%, respectively. The contents of analytes in E. chrysantha Lindl. collected from the different places were successfully determined with the recoveries ranging from 95.9 to 104.3%. And, the results demonstrated that there was significant difference between the two real samples.

Abstract
Aristolochic acids (AAs) are the main bioactive ingredients in the most of Aristolochia plants, which are used to make dietary supplements, slimming pills and Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCMs). Excessive ingestion of AAs can lead to serious nephropathy. Therefore, quantitative analysis and quality control for the plants containing AAs is of great importance. In this paper, capillary electrophoresis (CE) with electrochemical detection (ED) at a 33 microm carbon fiber microdisk electrode (CFE) has been applied to detect AA-I and AA-II in Aristolochia plants. Under the optimum conditions: detection potential at 1.20 V, 2.0 x 10(-2) mol L(-1) phosphate buffer solution (PBS) (pH 10.0), injection time 25 s at a height of 17 cm and separation voltage at 12.5 kV, the AA-I and AA-II were baseline separated within 5 min. Low detection limits for AA-I and AA-II were 4.0 x 10(-8) mol L(-1) and 1.0 x 10(-7) mol L(-1), respectively. Wide linear ranges were from 4.0 x 10(-8) mol L(-1) to 1.9 x 10(-5) mol L(-1) and 1.0 x 10(-7) mol L(-1) to 5.0 x 10(-5) mol L(-1) for AA-I and AA-II, respectively. The proposed method has been successfully applied to analyze AAs contents in plant extracts. The results indicated that the contents of AAs in each part of Aristolochia debilis Sieb. Et Zucc. plant were different. Meanwhile, the CE-ED method was utilized for fingerprint analysis of medicine herbs. Six herbs (Radix aristolochiae, Fructus aristolochiae, Herba aristolochiae, Caulis aristolochiae manshuriensis, Caulis clematidis armandii, Caulis akebiae) were well distinguished by comparing their electropherograms obtained by CE-ED method.
