ABSTRACT
According to the experience of teaching the science of Chinese Medical Herbs Preparation,the author gives some advice such as choosing typical drugs,providing examples and setting up comprehensive and contriving experiments etc,which is worth referring to in teaching es-pecially for those who have less time in experiments.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the chromatographic fingerprint of Curcuma wenyujin by HPLC.Methods The chromatographic fingerprint of C.wenyujin was established by HPLC with Shimadzu VP-ODS C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m),acetonitrile-water(0.1 phosphoric acid) gradient elution,the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min,column temperatures of 30 ℃,and detective wavelength at 210 nm.ResultsTaking germacrone as the reference peak,14 common-peaks were selected as the fingerprint peaks.The similarities among samples of C.wenyujin among 19 approved samples and their standard chromatographic fingerprints were calculated with a software "Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Chinese Materia Medica" published by GPC(Version 2004A) and cluster analysis.ConclusionThis method with better accuracy and reproducibility could be used in the quality control of C.wenyujin.
