An HPLC method for determining orientin and vitexin in Trollius chinensis preparation was presented.The separation was carried out on Hypersil ODS column with a mixture of acetonitrile-1% acetic acid solution (15:85) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min.The detection wavelength was 40 nm.The linear range for orientin was 8.42-84.2 μg/mL , average recovery 98.3%, and RSD 0.8%.For vitexin, the linear range was 8.07-80.7 μg/mL (r = 0.999 9), average recovery 102.4%, and RSD 1.7%.The method is sensitive, accurate, selective, and reproducible, and can be used for the quality control of Trollius chinensis preparation
