Objective  To establish a method for quality control of Astragalus Radix and Scutellariae Radix in Biqiaotong granules and provide basis for the establishment of quality standard. Methods  The single-factor test method was used to investigate the factors of thin layer chromatography (TLC) conditions, including different extract method and solvents, developing system, comogemc agents, temperature, humidity, drawing amounts and thin layer boards, and to screen the best TLC conditions of Astragalus Radix and Scutellariae Radix . Results  The TLC conditions of Astragalus Radix were used trichloromethane-methanel-water (13:7:2) as developing solvent, separated on silica gel G, heatd under 105℃ until the spots bacame clear. The TLC conditions of Scutellariae Radix were used methylbenzene-ethy acetate- formic acid-methanel (9:3:2:2) as developing solvent, separated on silica gel G, observed after 30 minutes under daylight until the spots were clear. Conclusions  The spot features are clear, and with good separating degree, strong specificity, and good repeatability without the inference of negative control. The TLC method is simple, sensitive and accurate, which can be adopted for the quality control of Biqiaotong granules.
