Abstract: A method was developed for the extraction and determination of oleanolic acid from Chinese quince. The performances of Reflux extraction, Soxhiet extraction, Leaching extraction and Ultrasonic extraction (UE) were investigated. The results obtained by HPLC indicated that UE had the highest extraction efficiency. The proposed method was charecterized as simplicity, fast and sensitivity.
