UPLC-Q-TOF-MS and UPLC-QQQ-MS were used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of oligosaccharides in Fufang Ejiao Syrup.

Fufang Ejiao Syrup (FES) is a syrup made from Colla Corii Asini (CCA) and four botanicals (Codonopsis Radix (CR), Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma Rubra (GRRR), Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata (RRP) and Crataegi Fructus (CF)) as a result of modern processing and refining technology. FES has a lengthy history and is frequently used in clinical practice. Modern pharmacological studies have confirmed that oligosaccharides in any of the main medicinal herbs of FES, such as CR, GRRR, and RRP, have significant immune-enhancing effects.
