[Study on HPLC fingerprint and TLC of lingnan traditional cornu cervi pantotrichum prepared for decoction].

OBJECTIVE: The HPLC fingerprint of Lingnan traditional Cornu Cervi Pantotrichum prepared for decoction (LNCD)was established combining with the thin-layer chromatogram of amino acids ( AAD), in order to provide effective and reliable methods for comprehensive evaluation and quality control. METHODS: The HPLC fingerprint of 10 batches of LNCD were obtained. Besides,the semi-quantitative and qualitative determination of 10 batches of LNCD on AAD were analyzed by TLC. RESULTS: The mutual mode of HPLC fingerprints was set up. The TLC and the similarities of HPLC fingerprints of LNCD from different processing methods were compared. CONCLUSION: The method is stable,repeatable and reliable,which provides reference to evaluate the quality of LNCD.
