Most of the critical review is devoted to the biological
activities in vivo and in vitro (Joe et al., 2004) as well as to the pharmacological effects of curcuminoids and related plant sources in animal and human body (Miquel et al., 2002; Jain et al., 2007) rather than exploring the analytical methods for determination of curcuminoids. In this review, we highlight the application of several instrumental techniques for the quantitative analysis of curcuminoids either in raw materials or in food and pharmaceutical products.
