[Determination of Six Ingredients in Gardenia jaminoides Fruits with Quantitative Analysis of Muti-components by Single Marker].

OBJECTIVE: To establish a method of quantitative analysis of multi-components, by single marker(QAMS)for simultaneously determining six ingredients in Gardenia jasminoides fruits. METHODS: A multi-wavelength segmentation detection method was used. A methodological mode was found to analysis six ingredients in Gardenia jasminoides fruits by quantitative analysis of QAMS. Taken geniposide as reference to create RCF with gardenia acid, chlorogenic acid, crocin I, crocin II and crocin III. RESULTS: The good reproducibility and acceptable durability of method was validated between two HPLC systems and three columns. 20 batches of Gardenia jaminoides fruits was analysis, and the results showed good linear correlation compared to external standard method (r > 0. 999). CONCLUSION: QAMS can be used as quality evaluation method of multi-component Gardenia jaminoides fruits.
