title: [Determination of notoginsenoside R1, ginsenoside Rg1 and Rb1 in Radix Notoginseng and its preparation by HPLC-ELSD].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To establish the quantitative method of notoginsenoside R1, ginsenoside Rg1 and Rb1 in Radix Notoginseng and its preparation Xuesaitong injection by HPLC-ELSD.
  
  
  METHODS
  The column was packed with 5 microm Diamonsil C18 stationary phase. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water, eluted in gradient mode. The temperature of drift tube was 105 degrees C and the nebulizer nitrogen flow rate was 2.9 L x min(-1).
  
  
  RESULTS
  The linear ranges of the three components were 0.456-2.25 microg, 1.47-7.38 microg and 1.20-6.03 microg respectively. The average recoveries of the three components in Radix Notoginseng were 97.1% (RSD 1.9%), 96.8% (RSD 2.0%), 97.0% (RSD 2.2%) respectively; in Xuesaitong Injection were 98.7% (RSD 1.9%), 98.5% (RSD 1.8%), 98.1% (RSD 1.4%) respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It was proved that the method was reliable, simple, and precise, that could be used for quality control.
