AIM: To investigate the processing and HPLC fingerprint of Radix Scutellariae processed with wine,and to set up appropriate quanlity control standard. METHODS: chromatographic condition of HPLC-UV fingerprint consisted of Hypersil C_18 column(200 mm?5.0 mm,5 ?m),mixture of methanol,0.4% phosphoric acid and acetonitrile as a mobile phase in a gradient mode.Flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and detection wavelength was set at 277 nm. RESULTS: There were no evident differences among fingerprints of Radix Scutellariae that was normatively processed from the production areas. CONCLUSION: The process is feasible,and can be used to provide a basis for quanlity control of Radix Scutellariae.

AIM: To establish a quality control method of analysing Lajiao Fengshi Plaster qualitatively and quantitatively. METHODS: Capsaicin was identificated by TLC and menthol,borneol were determinated by GC Lajiao Fengshi Plaster,silica gel as plate,ligarine(60～90?C)-acetoacetate(3(∶)2) as mobile phase,0.5% solution of dichloroquinonechlorimide R in methanol R.as chromogenic agent to identificate capsaicin.The internal standard of GC,naphthalene was employed.10% PEG-20M as the stationary phase,column temperature at 150(?C,) and FID as the detector to determine methol and borneol. RESULTS: There were the same spot corresponding in colour and position sample and reference capsaicin,but negative control had not such colour spot in the same plate of TLC.Menthol,borneol and naphthalene had been separated well under the chromatographic condition.The average recovery of menthol,borneol were 97.44%(RSD=0.93%),98.09%(RSD=1.26%),respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is sensitive,accurate and reproducible and can be used to control the quality of Lajiao Fengshi Plaster.
