One of the most widely used herbs in Ayurvedic medicine is Ashwaghanda, Withania somnifera, a shrub commonly found on the Indian subcontinent. As this plant is increasingly becoming a popular adaptogenic in the western world, analytical methods for its identification and quality control are in demand. Thus, a HPLC method for the determination of withaferin A and withanolide D was developed. The system was successfully used to investigate the presence of the markers in different W. somnifera plant parts as well as to analyze their content in market products.
印度草医学中使用最广泛的草药之一是南非醉茄(Withania somnifera),这是一种常见于印度次大陆的灌木。由于这种植物在西方世界越来越成为一种受欢迎的适应原,因此对其鉴定和质量控制的分析方法有需求。因此,开发了一种用于测定睡茄素A和睡茄内酯D的高效液相色谱法。该系统已成功用于研究不同南非醉茄植物部位中这些标志物的存在情况,并分析市售产品中它们的含量。
