Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo develop a GC method to determine the content of caryophyllene in Eupatorium fortune.
METHODThe samples were determined on a DB-1701 (0.32 mm x 30 m, 0.25 microm) quartz capillary column. And the sample was extracted with ethanol by the ultrasonic assisted extraction.
RESULTThe calibration curve of caryophyllene is liner over the range of 0.002-2.0 g x L (-1) (R2 = 1). The recovery was from 96.76% to 104.15%.
CONCLUSIONThe method is accurate, simple with a good reproducibility. It can be used to control the quality of E. fortune.
