Abstract:
Objective: In order to evaluate the quality of Panax ginseng and its preparation, a simple and accurate HPLC method for determining the contents of 16 ginsenosides from P. ginseng was established. Methods: The chromatographic separation was achieved on a C18 column (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) using a mobile phase made up of acetonitrie and water at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength and column temperature were set as 203 nm and 35°C, respectively. Results: Sixteen ginsenosides (Rg1, Re, Rf, Rb1, Rg2, Rc, Rb2, Rb3, F1, Rd, F2, Rg3, protopanaxatriol, compound K, Rh2, and protopanaxadiol) were separated at baseline with good linearity (r ≥ 0.9990). The recovery rates were 95%-102% (RSD < 2%). Conclusion: The method is simple, fast, accurate, and could be applied to the quality control of P. ginseng and its preparation.
