The determination of sennoside A (SA) and sennoside B (SB) by capillary zone electrophoresis was developed. The separation of SA and SB was performed in 100 mM of the 3-[cyclohexylamino]-1-propanesulfonic acid (CAPS) buffer (pH 10.0), and the migration time of SA and SB was found to be both less than 7 min. This method was applied to the analyses of seven commercial formulations containing SA and SB without previous treatment. The statistical comparison of the results obtained from both capillary electrophoresis and HPLC methods revealed an absolute correlation.
