中藥指紋圖譜技術(shù)是中藥實現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化、國際化的關(guān)鍵問題，它能較全面反映中藥中所含成分的種類和數(shù)量，能更好地表明中藥的內(nèi)在質(zhì)量，成為中藥質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)研究的核心技術(shù)。對近年來薄層色譜、液相色譜、氣相色譜、高效毛細(xì)管電泳、高速逆流色譜、微乳色譜等現(xiàn)代色譜分析技術(shù)在指紋圖譜研究的應(yīng)用作一概述，綜述了各種色譜指紋圖譜的特點及其適用范圍，簡要闡述了國內(nèi)外中藥指紋圖譜研究的應(yīng)用情況。

Chinese materia medica (CMM) fingerprint is the key to realize the modernization and internationalization, it can comprehensively reflect the type and quantity of components in CMM and show the immanent quality of it. The application of the chromatographic analytic technologies in fingerprinting on TLC, LC, GC, HPCE, and HSCCC in recent years is summarized in this paper, and the characteristics and scope of various chromatographic fingerprint are overviewed. This paper briefly describes the application of fingerprint research on CMM both at home and abroad.
