Ginsenosides, which have strong biological activities, can be divided into polar or less-polar ginsenosides. This study evaluated the phytochemical diversity of the saponins in Panax ginseng (PG) root, American ginseng (AG) root, and Panax notoginseng (NG) root; the stem-leaves from Panax ginseng (S...
