title: [Fingerprint analysis of Glehniae Radix by TLC].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To establish TLC fingerprint of Glehniae Radix for the identification and quality control of the drug.
  
  
  METHODS
  10 batches of Glehniae Radix commercial drugs collected from different gathering areas and 3 batches from Laiyang, Shandong were used as qualitative identification samples. Falcarindiol, scopoletin umbelliferone and isoimperatorin were used as the chemical reference substances. Double wavelength TLCS was performed with petroleum and ethyl acetate (4:1) as developer,detection wavelength at 300 nm and reference wavelength at 260 nm.
  
  
  RESULTS
  TLC chromatogram of 13 samples had 8 well-resolved characteristic peaks, in which 4 peaks were falcarindiol, umbelliferone, scopoletin and isoimperatorin, respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The method is accurate and simple, and can be used for the quality control of Glehniae Radix.
