Abstract

Rapid resolution liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry was developed for simultaneous determination of twelve saponins in Radix et Rhizoma Notoginseng (RRN) with macranthoidine A as internal standard. All calibration curves showed good linear regression (r 2 > 0.9935) within test range. The limits of detection of the twelve compounds were in the range of 1.53–5.08 ng mL−1. This method was successfully applied to analyze the saponins in fifteen samples of RRN.
