ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of rutin ,hesperidin ,arctiin ,liquiritin and glycyrrhizinate in Sangxing oral liquid. METHODS:RP-HPLC was performed on the column of Kromasil C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid solution(gradient elution) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min,the detection wavelength was 276, 348 nm ,column temperature was 30 ℃,and the injection volume was 5 μL. RESULTS:The linear range was 1.068-10.68 μg/mL (r=0.9993)for rutin,9.320-93.20 μg/mL(r=0.9992)for hesperidin,46.91-469.1 μg/mL(r=0.9994)for arctiin,0.5110-5.110μg/mL(r=0.9992) for liquiritin;RSDs of precision , stability and reproducibility tests were less than 3%;recoveries were 95.10% -101.90%(RSD=2.1%,n=9),96.75%-101.80%(RSD=1.4%,n=9),95.69%-100.00%(RSD=1.5%,n=9), 98.22%-104.60%(RSD=2.1%,n=9),respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The method is accurate,sensitive and reproducible,and can be used for the simultaneous determination of rutin,hesperidin,arctiin and liquiritin in Sangxing oral liquid.
ABSTRACT
AIM To develop an HPLC method for the simultaneous content determination of five constituents in Chairen Capsules (Bupleuri Radix,Ziziphi spinosae Semen,Chuanxiong Rhizoma,etc.).METHODS The analysis of 80％ methanol extract of this drug was performed on a 30 ℃ thermostatic Merck Purospher STAR C1s column (250 mm × 4.6 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.1％ formic acid flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelengths were set at 237,290 and 335 nm.RESULTS Spinosin,ferulic acid,cinnamaldehyde,liquiritin and ammonium glycyrrhizate showed good linear relationships within the ranges of 0.009 26-0.092 6 μg (R2 =0.999 6),0.056 2-0.562 μg (R2 =0.999 8),0.130-1.30 μg (R2 =0.999 8),0.275-2.75 μg (R2 =0.999 5) and 0.568-5.68 μg (R2 =0.999 2),whose average recoveries were 100.73％,100.62％,100.02％,100.41％ and 99.96％ ％ with the RSDs of 2.20％,1.37％,1.52％,1.30％ and 0.80％,respectively.CONCLUSION This simple,accurate and reproducible method can be used for the quality control of Chairen Capsules.
