ABSTRACT
Objective: The similarities and the differences among Peru's Ginseng healthcare product, Radix Ginseng and Panax quinquefolium were studied. Methods: The work was performed by analysis of HPLC FPS and 4 dimensional UV FPS. Results: Their 4 dimensional UV FPS were very similar with each other, and the common peaks ratio of the components extracted from Peru's Ginseng healthcare product, Radix Ginseng with absolute alcohol was larger than that of the components extracted from Peru's Ginseng healthcare product and Panax quinquefolium. The variant ratio between the healthcare product and Radix Ginseng were more similar and much lower than that between the healthcare product and Panax quinquefolium. Conclusion: The components extracted from the healthcare product with absolute alcohol are the same as that from Radix Ginseng and are of quite large difference from the components from Panax quinquefolium.
