The contents of valepotriates, valerenic acid and their derivatives as mild sedative and antispamodic principles in two Korean valerian roots (Valeriana officinalis var. latifolia Miq. and V. fauriei var. dasycarpa Hara) were investigated and were compared with those in European valerian roots(Valeriana officinalis L.) by BPLC method. Among valepotriate compounds, valtrate was detected as a small amount in two Korean valerian roots, and iso-valtrate and dihydrovaltrate were detected as a trace amount. Among valerenic acid and their derivatives, valerenic acid were contained from 0.9∼3.46 mg/g base on dry weight. Over the vegetation periods investigated, the content of valepotriates remained more or less constant, hut the content of valerenic acid reached its maximum in 3-year old age. The compound isolated from Korean V. officinalis var. latifolia was elucidated as valerenic acid by spectroscopic data such as GC-MS, $^1$H-NMR and $^{13}$ C-NMR, and comparison of GC retention time with that of authentic compound.

쥐오줌풀 부정근으로부터 valepotriates와 valerenic acids 함량을 증진시키고자 다양한 elicitor를 처리하였다. 쥐오줌풀 부정근의 생장은 YE 처리구를 제외한 모든 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 감소하였다. 그러나 valepotriates와 valerenic acids 생산은 모든 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 증가하였으며 특히, valepotriates는 $100\;{\mu}M$ MeJA 처리구에서 $12.56\;{\pm}\;0.78\;mg/{\ell}$, valerenic acids는 1 $g/{\ell}$ YE 처리구에서 $10.63\;{\pm}\;1.1\;mg/{\ell}$ 로 가장 높았으며, 이는 대조구에 비해 1.6배와 1.8배의 생산성증가를 가져왔다.

The purpose of this study was to establish valerenic acid as a marker compound for the standardization of ethanol extract of Valerinan officinalis (valerian) root as a functional health food. We established valerenic acid as a marker compound using HPLC. HPLC was used to quantify the marker compound in the valerian extract after validation of methods with linearity, accuracy, and precision. The specificity for retention time was met by comparative analysis of the valerian extract and standard compound using HPLC. The method showed high linearity of the calibration curve with a coefficient of correlation ($R^2$) of 0.9999. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was $10{\mu}g/mL$. The accuracy of measurement was 99.88~00.68% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) value was 0.59%. In addition, our analytical method yielded a 29% mean content of valerenic acid in the valerian ethanol extract. These results indicate that the established HPLC method facilitated the determination of marker compounds in the valerian extract for the standardization of health functional foods.
