Abstract:
Objective To set up a simple and accurate method for the determination of saikosaponins in Bupleurum chinense DC. by UV-Visible Spectrophotometry. Methods The content of saikosaponins was determined by UV-Visible Spectrophotometry. The absorbency was measured at 536nm. Results The calibration curves was linear within 194~1940mg/L(r=0.9996). The average recovery was 97.35%,and the RSD was 1.02%(n=9). Conclusion The method was proved to be simple, precise and reproduciable. It can be used for the quantitative determination of B upleurum chinense DC.
