Abstract

Polyscias fruticosa (L.) Harms is a traditional medicine, which is planted widely in Tra Vinh province of Vietnam. It is used for nourishing the body, curing asthenia, emaciation, fatigue, poor digestion, poor metabolism, enhance working capacity and brain activity. Oleanolic acid (OA), a marker, is a sapogenin in radix polysciacis. Quantification of OA by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) makes an important contribution to the quality assessment of the medicinal plant of Polyscias fruticosa (L.) Harms. In order to develop and apply a method to evaluate the content OA in radix polysciacis, planted in Tra Vinh province, many conditions for extracting OA from radix polysciacis were investigated; many HPLC testing conditions were performed find a simple, accurate and fast analytical procedure for the quantification of OA in extract solution of radix polysciacis. As a result, the optimum extraction procedure of OA from the roots of Polyscias fruticosa (L.) Harms was found out; a simple, accurate and fast analytical procedure for the quantification of OA in radix polysciacis’s extract solution was developed, evaluated and applied to assets the OA content of 05 samples of radix polysciacis collected in different regions of Tra Vinh province. This developed method can control the quality of medicinal materials of Polyscias fruticosa (L.) Harms and its preparation effectively.
