Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium is the dried mature pericarp of Citrus reticulata Blanco which can be divided into "Chenpi" and "Guangchenpi." "Guangchenpi" is the genuine Chinese medicinal material in Xinhui, Guangdong province; based on the greatest quality and least amount, it is most expensive among others. Hesperidin is used as the marker to identify Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium described in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010. However, both "Chenpi" and "Guangchenpi" contain hesperidin so that it is impossible to differentiate them by measuring hesperidin.
