Differences Study of Water-soluble Protein Content in Ginseng from Different Origins

OBJECTIVE Study differences in water-soluble protein content from 15 origins in Changbai Mountain area to identify the quality of ginseng from different origins. METHODS The electrophoresis spectras about ginseng water-soluble protein was got with SDS-PAGE. The electrophoresis spectras were transfened through the gel imaging software into concentration Rf spectras. The spectra of ginseng protein from different origins was superimposed and concentration of spectras were compared. RESULTS The amount of main absorption peak was 13, and the number of absorption peaks were similar, but the fingerprint informations about the contents were different with the different origins. CONCLUSION The contents of water-soluble protein in ginseng are different from different origins.
