栽培了当归属的几种植物大当归(Angelica gigas)、东当归(A.acutiloba)和北海当归(A.acutiloba var.sugiyamae),并采用薄层层析(TLC)和高效液相层析(HPLC)法研究了不同当归属植物的生长、产量、醚提物量及东当归酞内酯含量的季节变化。结果表明,大当归的地上部分较其它植物生长快,并且其醚提物含量高。但TLC和HPLC表明大当归不含东当归酞内酯,因此应认为由大当归制成的生药与东当 Angelica gigas, A.acutiloba and A.acutiloba var.sugiyamae were cultivated and analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high performance liquid chromatography HPLC) method was used to study the seasonal changes of the growth, yield, ether extract and the content of phthalocyanine in the leaves of Angelica sinensis. The results showed that the aerial parts of Danggui grew faster than other plants and the content of ether extract was high. However, TLC and HPLC showed that Angelica dorsalis does not contain phthalocyanine, therefore, it should be considered that the crude drug made from Danggui and Dongdan
