      Fagopyrin: Extraction & Purification - Request for References.
      --------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know about the procedure or any related literature on extraction
and purification of FAGOPYRIN, the photodynamic principle present in Buckwheat
( Fagopyrum Esculenium ) ?

I am posting this article for my wife who has had a very tough time finding
any such information. We would appreciate if the readers of this group could
help us with this info. or pointers to journals/laboratories/people who could
be of help.

Thanks a lot,

Sunil Samel.
