Preparative reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatography (prep-RP-HPLC) coupled with photodiode array (PDA) and evaporative light scattering (ELSD) detectors was employed to isolate picrosides present in Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth. A binary gradient method (water and acetonitrile) was optimized on Water Spherisorb S10 ODS2 20 mm × 250 mm Semiprep Column with a 20 mL/min flow rate at ambient temperature with linear binary gradient conditions; at 0 min 15 % acetonitrile hold for 15 min; 15 to 22 % acetonitrile in next 2 min, hold for 13 min; 22 to 15 % acetonitrile in 5 min hold for 5 min to equilibrate column for next injection. The picroside-I and picroside-II fractions were 98.6 and 99.7 % pure with 13.9 mg and 9.8 mg yield per 200 mg of crude extract, respectively from mature dry rhizomes. Structures of isolated iridoids were confirmed with UV scan, 1H-NMR and direct infusion ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS data.
