This paper is intended as an investigation of the analysis of high-performance liquid chromatography and the method of extraction of decursin and decursinol angelate in Angelica gigas roots. There are three kinds of extraction methods: distilled water, 50% EtOH and 100% EtOH. The condition of HPLC was obtained on a reversed-phase column $(Polarity;dC_{18},;4.6{ imes}250 mm,;5;{mu}m)$ using a phosphate buffer-acetonitrile-sodium lauryl sulfate as the mobile phase. Under these chromatographic conditions, UV detector was 230 nm, column temperature $30^{circ}C$ and the speed of a current 1.0 ml/min, respectively. The results of extraction with distilled water, 50% EtOH and 100% EtOH in Angelica gigas roots were as follows. The concentrations of decursin and decursinol angelate were 182 and 153 ppm (distilled water), 3,142 and 2,547 ppm (50% EtOH) and 3,341 and 2,778 ppm (100% EtOH). There were high positive correlations between the concentrations of decursin and EtOH (r=0.8928, p<0.01) and decursinol angelate and EtOH (r=0.9009, p<0.01).
