ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the quality standard for Xuanshi Texiao Yaoshui(mainly composed of Radix Sophorae Flavescentis,Cortex Pseudolaricis,etc).Methods Radix Sophorae Flavescentis and Cortex Pseudolaricis were identified by TLC.The content of oxymatrine was determined by HPLC.Symmetry C18 column(4.6 mm? 250 mm,5 ? m)with mobile phase of methanol-water-triethylamine(40:60:0.04)was used.The detective wavelength was 220 nm.Results TLC for Radix Sophorae Flavescentis and Cortex Pseudolaricis was specific .HPLC for oxymatrine had a good separation with other components,and the linear range of oxymatrine was 0.60～ 1.80 ? g and recovery rate was 99.34 %(RSD =0.71 %).Conclusion This method can be used to control the quality of Xuanshi Texiao Yaoshui.
