title: Two-dimensional TLC analysis of ginsenosides from root of dwarf ginseng (Panax trifolius L.) Araliaceae.
abstract: A procedure is reported for the two-dimensional TLC separation of ginsenosides from the root of Panax trifolius L. The solvent systems and spray reagents described are useful for the identification of ginsenosides in various species of Panax. The results of the separation and identification with controls of at least four ginsenosides from the root of P. trifolius L. are reported. The total percentage of ginsenosides was 0.0061%.
