RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To establish the method to control the quality of Qilian suppository.METHODS:TLC was per?formed to identify Rhizoma coptidis and Radix Notoginseng.A reverse phase HPLC-ELSD method was adopted to determine the content of ginsenoside Rg 1 and ginsenoside Rb 1 in Radix Notoginseng.RESULTS:The study on the quality control showed that the characteristic of identification by TLC was distinct and highly specific.In this quantification method,the linear ranges of ginsenoside Rg 1 and Rb 1 were1.56?g～3.74?g(r=0.9993,RSD=1.6%)and1.44?g～3.46?g(r=0.9981,RSD=1.2%)respectively.The average recovery rate of ginsenoside Rg 1 was99.10%,and RSD=1.6%(n=3);the average recovery rate of ginsenoside Rb 1 was102.13%,and RSD=1.2%(n=3).CONCLUSION:The method is simple,sensitive,accurate and re?peatable.It can be used for the quality control of Qilian suppository.
