title: [HPLC analysis of flavonoids in the root of six Glycyrrhiza species].
abstract: Ten flavonoids isolated from six species of Glycyrrhiza root were analysed by reversed phase HPLC. A column packed with Partisil 5 ODS-3 and gradient elution by using different percentage of methanol (B) in water-glacial acetic acid (97:3 V/V) (A) were used to separate licochalcone A, isoschaftoside, schaftoside, liquiritin, isoviolanthin, violanthin, ononin, isoliquiritin, 4', 7-dihydroxyflavone and licoflavone A. Nine Glycyrrhiza samples of six species were analysed to determine their composition and content of the flavonoids. The results showed that the composition and content of the flavonoids of different Glycyrrhiza species were different as well as the same species but collected in different places.
