A simple and reproducible HPTLC method for the determination of gymnemagenin (1) in Gymnema sylvestre has been developed. Components were separated on pre‐coated silica gel 60 F 254 plates with chloroform:methanol (9:1) and scanned using a densitometric scanner in the UV reectance mode at 290 nm. Linearity of determination of 1 was observed in the range 4–10 µg. The average percentage recovery of 1 from an extract was 99.09 ± 0.29, and the content of 1 in leaves of the title plant was 1.61% (dry weight). Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
