ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of liquiritin and glycyrrhizic acid in Erxieting granule.Methods:A TechMate C18-ST(250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm) column with a DAD detector was used.The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (A) and 0.05% phosphoric acids in water (B) with gradient elution.The flow rate was 1.0 ml·min-1 and the detection wavelength was 237 nm.The sample size was 5 μl and the column temperation was room temperatence.Results:Linear calibration curves were obtained within the range of 10.32-51.62 mg·L-1 for liquiritin and 79.40-397.00 mg·L-1for glycyrrhizic acid.The average spiked recovery of liquiritin and glycyrrhizic acid was 98.10(RSD=1.0%,n=6)and 97.15(RSD=1.8%,n=6),respectively.Conclusion:The method is accurate,reproducible and stable,and can be used for the quality control of Erxieting granule.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To optimize the macroporous resin separation process for total flavonoids in papaya. Methods:The content of total flavonoids in papaya was selected as the index, and the resin model, sample solution concentration, ratio of diameter and height, the flow rate of adsorption, type and volume of eluent, type and volume of impurity removing solvent, elution velocity and the other parameters were investigated. Results:The optimal purification process was as follows: the macroporous resin type was D-140, the sample solution concentration was 0. 1 g·ml-1 , the sample volume was 2BV, the ratio of diameter and height was 1∶9, washing the impurities with 3BV water, eluting with 3BV 10% ethanol first followed by 3BV 50% ethanol with 2BV·h-1 , and collecting 50%ethanol elution. The total flavonoids content was 52%. Conclusion:The optimized process can separate and purify the total flavonoids in papaya effectively.
