The goal of this study is to investigate the biotransformation of ginsenoside Rg 1 in vivo . A highly sensitive and specific LC‐MS/MS method was developed and used for metabolite identification in rat feces and urine after oral administration of ginsenoside Rg 1 . Four metabolites of Rg 1 were detected in rat feces and three metabolites of Rg 1 were detected in rat urine. Deglycosylation and oxygenation were found to be the major metabolic pathways of ginsenoside Rg 1 after oral administration in rat. Except for the reported metabolites Rh 1 and protopanaxatriol, mono‐oxygenated Rg 1 and mono‐oxygenated protopanaxatriol were detected for the first time after oral administration of Rg 1 . The in vivo metabolite profiling of ginsenoside Rg 1 in rat was proposed. Viewed collectively, Rg 1 was metabolized to mono‐oxygenated Rg 1 , Rh 1 , protopanaxatriol and the secondary metabolite mono‐oxygenated protopanaxatriol in rat.
