Fingerprint of Eupatorium chinense by HPLC / 中草药

Objective To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Eupatorium chinense.Methods The ana-lysis was performed on a Kromasil C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) with acetonitrile-water as mobile phase in a gradient mode.The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min.The column temperature was 25 ℃ and the detection wavelength was 230 nm.Results The fingerprint of E.chinense with common 13 peaks was established.The relative retention time and the ranges of relative area of the common peaks were determined.Conclusion The established fingerprint could be used for the quality control of E.chinense.
