Abstract:Objective: To compare the differences of HPLC profile and the main components among 3 different solvents so as to provide the basis for improving the quality standard of Chai-huang granules. Method: HPLC was employed to identify the main chromatographic peaks, which also was taken to compare the relative peak amounts, total amounts as well as the relative ratio among water, methanol and 70% methanol solvent extracts. Result: Four peaks (baicalin, wogonoside, baicalein, wogonin) were identified. HPLC profiles of 3 extract solvents were almost same, however there were exhibited the significant varieties of the peak amounts, total amounts and the relative ratio of 4 major components. The contents of 3 extract solvents had substantial differences, and water as extracting solvent was highest. Conclusion: This study could offer the useful reference for determination method of Chai-huang granules.
