The study aimed to create a High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) fingerprint for the plants Nerviliae fordii and Nervilia plicata to assess their authenticity and quality.
Using a specific HPLC method, researchers analyzed 15 batches of Nerviliae fordii and 5 batches of Nervilia plicata, noting significant differences between the two species.
The developed HPLC fingerprint method proved to be a quick and effective tool for distinguishing between these plants, which can enhance quality control measures for Nerviliae fordii.
