Abstract:
Objective To compare the polysaccharide content of pseudostellaria heterophylla which produced in various areas and in different parts of them. Methods The polysaccharide content of pseudostellaria heterophylla was determined by phenol-sulfuric acid method. Results The polysaccharide content of pseudostellaria heterophylla produced in Fujian is the highest, Jiangsu and Guizhou are second-class. The polysaccharide content has some disparity in the bodies and in the roots of pseudostellaria heterophylla. Conclusions The polysaccharide content in the bodies differs 1.96% with that in the roots. This experiment provides theory foundation for scientific preparation of pseudostellaria heterophylla.
