Abstract:Separated on phenox RP18 column with a mobile phase of methyl alcohol-water(82 : 18) and detected at wave-length 232nm ,yuanhuacine has shown a good linearity in the range from 7.6× 10-3 to 0.76μg. The recovery is 99.56%with RSD 3.61 %(n=9). The content of yuanhuacine in Daphne genkwa is 0. 00848%
