Abscisic acid (ABA) and jasmonic acid (JA) are two types of plant hormones that control and regulate plant growth. Both of them have two enantiomers in synthetic compounds but only one of the structures exists in real plant body with low concentration. Chiral separation of ABA and JA has been so imp...
