Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

An express method was developed for assay of water-soluble polysaccharides in common burdock (Arctium lappa L.) roots, with an analysis time of 3 h. The method was validated in terms of reproducibility, accuracy, and linearity, and this demonstrated that the method was accurate on reproduction, correct, and had a quite strictly linear relationship between the weight of the precipitate and the weight of the material analyzed using gravimetric determination of water-soluble polysaccharides in common burdock roots. The method can be used for rapid analysis of the quality of common burdock root and for the industrial production of inulin from this raw material.
