title: [Determination of istanbulin A in Sarcandra glabra].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To determine istanbulin A in Sarcandra glabra (Thunb.) Nakai.
  
  
  METHODS
  An RP-HPLC method was established and an hypersil ODS C18 column (4.6 mm x 200 mm, 5 microm) was used. The detective wavelength was at 218nm.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Istanbulin A had a good linearity in the range of 0. 135 to approximately 2. 16 microg. The recovery rate was 98.54%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This method is simple, accurate and repeatable. It can be used to determine istanbulin A in Sarcandra glabra.
