Title: Determination of Flavonoids and Triterpene Acids in Forsythia suspensa Leaves from Henan and Shanxi Provinces
Abstract: The objective of this study was to determinate the contents of total flavonoids, rutin, hyperin, quercetin, total triterpene acids, oleanolic acid and ursolic acid in Forsythia suspensa leaves from Henan and Shanxi provinces by spectrophotometry and HPLC method, respectively. The contents of total flavonoids, rutin, hyperin and quercetin in F. suspensa leaves from Henan province were higher than in those from Shanxi province, but the contents of total triterpene acids, oleanolic acid and ursolic acid from Shanxi province were higher than those from Henan province. The results showed that the contents of flavonoids and triterpene acids in F. suspensa leaves from both provinces were relatively high. This study provided important information for comprehensive utilization of F. suspense leaves.
