By selecting the appropriate measuring wavelength or wavelength range, the contents of strychnine and brucine in nuxvomica were determined without any preliminary separation by a new rapid spectrophotometry and a multi-wavelength linear regression spectrophotometry and with a computer program. The linear range of strychnine measured was 8.0-30.0 μg·mL-1 (r=0.999 9); The linear range of brucine measured was 7.0-31.2 μg·mL-1 (r=0.999 4). The average recoveries and relative standard deviations of strychnine and brucine were 98.18%-99.82%,0.56%-1.54% and 100.5%-100.6%,0.57%-0.62%, respectively. The methods are simple, rapid and reproducible, the interference of two components with each other may be eliminated and the methods are appropriate for quality control of nuxvomica.
