A rapid, simple and reliable high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been established for the analysis of the major alkaloids in Huperzia serrata, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herb. After chromatographic separation on a reversed-phase C18 column with methanol-ammonium acetate (pH 6.0; 80 mM, 30/70, v/v) as the mobile phase, nine alkaloid compounds in the alkaloid extracts of H. serrata were identified by online diode array detection–MS and by comparing with data from literature and standard samples. One compound in the extract, huperzine A, is a drug for treating Alzheimer's disease. Its content was quantified by HPLC coupled with UV-vis. The method was the validated. The recovery rates were 96.8–97.7% with R.S.D <2.44%. The intra- and inter-day precisions, expressed as R.S.D., ranged from 0.53% to 1.51%. Good linear regression was observed in the concentration range of 5–100 μg/ml (r = 0.9997). The results demonstrate that this method is simple, selective, and suitable for the quality control of this TCM herb.
