Abstract: This study was aimed to measure the content of ginsenoside in ginseng extract by UV/HPLC. Through the approximate translation comparison of two different testing results with UV and HPLC in current market, and several typical HPLC peaks ratio analysis on contents of different ginsenoside extracted from the root, stem and leaves of ginseng, in order to establish identification method of ginsenoside from different sources. The results showed that the ratio for Re:Rb1:Rc:Rd in ginseng root extract was approximately 1:2.20:0.94:0.97. And the ratio for Re:Rb1:Rc:Rd in ginseng leave extract was approximately 1:(0.05~0.07):(0.10~0.16):(0.32~0.37). Compared with the mixture of ginseng root and ginseng leave extract, the theoretical value of Re:Rb1:Rc:Rd should between those two ratios. It was concluded that this method was simple, stable and reliable, which can be used as the identification method of ginsenoside from ginseng root, stem and leaves.
