Analysis of Liposoluble Constituents in Fruit of Cnidium Monnieri by GC-MS / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the liposoluble constituents in fruit of Cnidium monnieri. Methods:The liposoluble constitu-ents in fruit of C. monnieri were extracted by Soxet extraction. The extracted liposoluble constituents were methyl esterified and then analyzed by GC-MS for the first time. Results:Thirty-nine compounds (85. 33%) were identified from the liposoluble constituents in fruit of C. monnieri. Phytol (15. 98%), hexadecanoic acid (12. 73%), 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid (11. 02%), 9-octadecenoic acid (6. 33%) and 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (4. 77%) were the main constituents of the liposoluble constituents in fruit of C. mon-nieri. Conclusion:Phytol, hexadecanoic acid, 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid and 9-octadecenoic acid are the active ingredients in fruit of C. monnieri.
