Utilization of natural products is radically changing. Changes were mainly due to the outcome in the market of a plethora of new food supplements, and in particular those generally named botanicals for their common plant origin. The validation of these novel products needs powerful anal. devices tailored for the study of herbal exts. to assess compn. and face their natural complexity as a resource. The last item is important and crucial for the capacity and utility of the anal. results that means that each product should be analyzed with the right approach. Having in mind these arguments, the authors selected HPTLC as useful tool for the anal. of products based on plant staminal (stem) cells. Nowadays these products, generally named bud-derivs., are waiting scientific validation to obtain their own place into food supplements regulation, after gained that in the market. The authors' analyses, based on HPTLC fingerprints, were able to show bud-derivs. complex compns. that resulted very similar, but also in part different, to those of the corresponding leaf hydro-alc. ext.
