title: [Studies on HPLC chromatogram of phenolic constituents of Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the chemical characteristic, to identify the different forms and to establish the new standard for the quality control of Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis.
  
  
  METHODS
  HPLC method was used with acetonitrile-water (63:37) as the mobile phase at room temperature. The chromatographic column was Lichrospher 100 RP-18e (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm). The flow rate was 1 mL x min(-1), and the detection wavelength was 294 nm. The chromatograms of 45 individuals from 13 seed resources of Cortex Magnolia Officinalis were recorded. The chemical characteristics analysis and comparability' s calculation of seed resources were made.
  
  
  RESULTS
  It was proposed that the area ratio of peak 5 to 6 (characteristic I) and the area ratio of peak 5 and 6 to the total peak areas (characteristic II) are the identification characteristics for different seed resources of Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This method can be used effectively to identify the high quality seed resource of Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis.
