Bioactive-Chemical Quality Markers Revealed: An Integrated Strategy for Quality Control of Chicory.

ABSTRACT: As a miraculous Xinjiang Uyghur customary traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Chicory (Cichorium glandulosum Boiss.et Huet and Cichorium intybus L.) has been found to have therapeutic potential for metabolic diseases in recent years. Although it is widely used as an ethnic medicine, there is still a lack of targeted quality control indicators in quality standards. Hence, this study was conducted to further develop a strategy to reveal bioactive-chemical quality markers based on the existing foundation. First, through the comparative screening of fingerprint profiles of a large amount of Cichorium glandulosum Boiss.et Huet and Cichorium intybus L., superiority components were found to be potential indicators of chemical quantitative properties for the roots and a
