A hight performance liquid chromatographic methods was developed for the seperation and determination of seven alkaloids in "sanjoin" (the seeds of Zizyphus jujuba Rhamnaceae), a plant with potent sedative activity. A reverse phase system of Lichrosorb RP-Select B column and 0.05 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH = 3.5)-acetonitrile with gradient elution was employed. Two known alkaloids, juzirine and lysicamine, were newly isolated fom "sanjoin"."sanjoin".oin&".ot;.
