title: [TLC-densitometric determination of sarsasapogenin in Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bge].
abstract: The sarsasapogenin content in Anemarrhena asphodeloides and its preparations was assayed by TLC-densitometric method. The developing solvent used was benzene-acetone (9:1). The chromatographic plate was sprayed with a mixture of 8% vanillin in alcoholic solution-70% H2SO4 solution (0.5:5). This plate was scanned using 445 nm as wavelength lambda s and 600 nm as wavelength lambda s.
