Objective: To determinate the content of germacron of 40 batches Curcumae Radix with germacron as control. Method: The amounts of germacron were determinated by RP-HPLC method with Eclipse XDB-C18 (4.6 mm×150 mm
5 μm) column as analytical column
210 nm as detective wavelength
acetonitrile-water (60∶40) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1. Result: The standard curve of germacron was linear in the range of 0.045 8-0.687 μg (r=0.999 9)
and the average recovery (n=6) was 99.2%
the range of germacron was 0.001 26%-0.224%. Conclusion: We provide the content of germacron of 40 batches of four species of Curcumae Radix is determined to provide data support for establishing scientific quality control standards.
