英文摘要：

Objective： To provide scientific basis for the utilization and development of Valeriana jatamansi by setting up the quality control specification of V. jatamansi. Method： The pharmacognostical methods were applied. The extract of V. jatarnansi was examined. Moisture and ash were determined. And the bioactive constituents were analyzed by TLC and HPLC. Result： The morphological and histological characters of V. jatamansi were observed. Content of total ash, acid-insoluble ash, and moisture of 15 samples from different habitats and times were determined. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of valtrate and acevaltrate by TLC and HPLC were preformed respectively. Conclusion： The established method can be used for the quality control of V. jatamans.
