[Comparation study on quality of different population of wild and breeding Whitmania pigra].
OBJECTIVE
To examine the quality of Whitmania pigra from the different populations to provide the basis for new species selection.

The contents xanthine and hypoxanthine by HPLC.


RESULTS
It showed that the contents of the alcohol extractive, total ash, acid-insoluble ash, antiplatelet aggregation enzyme, and xanthine and hypoxanthine content of the breeding population in Nanjing are lations.
