The invention relates to a rapid detection method for content of adenosine in paecilomyces hepialid mycelium powder. The rapid detection method is characterized by comprising the following steps: 1) preparing adenosine standard solution, namely weighing an adenosine standard substance, dissolving and carrying out constant volume with adenosine extracting solution, and preparing the adenosine standard solution for later use; 2) preparing sample solution, namely weighing a paecilomyces hepialid mycelium powder sample, adding the adenosine extracting solution, dissolving, uniformly mixing, addingquartz sand and grinding to be pasty, cooling, then transferring into a colorimetric tube, carrying out constant volume, carrying out ultrasonic oscillation by virtue of an ultrasonic oscillator, mixing, freezing in an environment at the temperature of -20 DEG C, then melting and transferring into a centrifugal machine to be subjected to centrifugal treatment, taking supernatant, filtering by virtue of a 0.45Mum filtration membrane, and preparing the sample solution for later use; and 3) carrying out detection and analysis by virtue of high performance liquid chromatography. The rapid detection method provided by the invention is scientific and reasonable in design, good in adenosine chromatographic peak separation effect, simple in mobile phase, high in adenosine recovery rate and good in repeatability and has the advantages of easy operation, shorter time, high detection speed and high detection efficiency.
