This paper reviews the new research progress on the analytic determination methods of ginsenoside in recent years. There are many analytic determination methods of ginsenosides,mainly including colorimetry,high performance liquid chromatography,ultra high performance liquid chromatography,high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry,ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography. The specific application of the above methods in the determination of ginsenosides are introduced respectively, and on this basis,the summary and prospect are carried out.
