[Determination of 3 components in Xinjiang Ziziphora bungeana by HPLC].

This study aimed to develop an HPLC method for simultaneous determination of the 3 components in Ziziphora bungeana. The optimum HPLC condition was as follows：ZORBAX SB-C₁₈ column（4.6 mm×250 mm, 5.0 μm）with gradient elution of methanol (A)-0.2% glacial acetic acid (B), detection wavelength 340 nm,column temperature 30 °C, flow rate 1 mL·min⁻¹. There were good linearity between peak areas and injection quantity of caffeic acid, rosmarinic acid, and linarin in the range of 2-40 mg·L⁻¹（ r =0.999 9）, 3-60 mg·L⁻¹（ r =1）, 7-140 mg·L⁻¹（r=0.999 9）, respectively. The average recoveries were 100.9%（RSD 1.3%）,98.25%（RSD 2.0%）,and 98.73%（RSD 1.5%）, respectively. The HPLC method was stable and accurate, which could be used to detect caffeic acid,rosmarinic acid, and linarin in Ziziphora bungeana.
