Abstract: We constructed quantitative high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprint of Achyranthes bidentata Blume and determined the contents of oleanolic acid and βecdysterone. We analyzed 13 batches of Achyranthes bidentata Blume with Agilent ZORBAX SBC18 column, 0.6% formic acid as fluid phase, column temperature of 25 ℃ and detection wavelength of 260 nm. HPLC fingerprint of Achyranthes bidentata Blume included sixteen common peaks and four characteristic peaks. We also quantitatively determined two of these peaks, peak 5 and peak 7. From their similarity analysis, we primarily confirmed Achyranthes bidentata Blume from different origins had significant distinctions in quality. This research provides an approach and technology support for the quality control of Achyranthes bidentata.

Key words: HPLC, β-ecdysteronein, Achyranthes bidentata, oleanolic acid, fingerprint
