Fingerprint profile of active components for Andrographis paniculata Nees by HPLC-DAD

Andrographis paniculata Nees ( A. paniculata ) has been used as herbal medicine for thousands of years in China. In this work, a quick extraction method with microwave-assisted treatment was studied for a complete extraction of active compounds from A. paniculata. Furthermore, the proposed fingerpri...

Description
Summary:Andrographis paniculata Nees ( A. paniculata ) has been used as herbal medicine for thousands of years in China. In this work, a quick extraction method with microwave-assisted treatment was studied for a complete extraction of active compounds from A. paniculata. Furthermore, the proposed fingerprint method, enhanced fingerprint by HPLC-DAD, has the advantage of efficiency and accuracy. In comparison with common fingerprint at fixed wavelength, enhanced fingerprint compiled additional spectral data and was hence more informative. It could efficiently identify, distinguish and assess A. paniculata. So it could be used to conduct the quality control of this traditional Chinese medicine comprehensively.
