Ginsenoside Analysis Service

v-innovate Technologies provides high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS)-based methods for ginsenoside analysis, which provides sufficient stability, sensitivity and high resolution for identification and quantification of ginsenoside. This approach has the advantages of simple, stable, fast, accurate, specific and reproducible, which can help researchers to analyze ginsenosides effectively.

Overview

Ginseng is the dried root of araliaceae panax ginseng C.A.Mey, which is a valuable traditional Chinese medicine. The chemical composition of ginseng includes ginsenoside, sugars, amino acids, vitamins, proteins, polypeptides, organic acids, fat-soluble components and trace elements. Ginsenoside is the most important physiological active substances in the ginseng, with the function of regulating the central nervous system, improving cardiovascular and hematopoietic system, regulating the endocrine system and enhancing immunity. More than 50 kinds of monomer saponins have been found in ginseng and the analysis of ginsenoside has always been an active service project of v-innovate Technologies. The different ginsenosides have their unique physiological functions, and the content of ginsenoside is an important index to evaluate the quality of ginseng and its products. v-innovate Technologies provides the simple, rapid, accurate, affordable and highly automated analytical method and equipment to analyse ginsenosides. High performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) can solve some of the problems associated with ginsenoside analysis. Improved extraction and purification steps can also increase the sensitivity of the analytical method.
