ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To formulate the quality standard of Cnidium monnieri liniment (called "liniment" for short)preliminarily. METHODS:The property of liniment was observed. TLC was used for qualitative identification of osthole in liniment;relative density,alcohol content and pH value were also determined. The osthole and imperatorin in liniment were analyzed qualitatively by HPLC. RESULTS:3 batch of samples were reddish brown liquid and fragrant smelling. In TLC of test sample,the same color fluorescent spots were found in corresponding position as chromatogram of control sample. The linear range of osthole and imperatorin were 0.101 2-0.910 8(r=0.999 6)and 0.006 2-0.124 4 mg/L(r=0.999 6). RSDs of precision tests were 1.38% and 0.79%(n=6). RSDs of stability tests were 0.33% and 0.41%(n=6). RSDs of reproducibility tests were 0.83% and 1.98%(n=6),respectively. Average recoveries rate were 98.73%(RSD=1.29%,n=6)and 99.25%(RSD=1.22%,n=6).Results of content determination showed that the content of osthole and imperatorin were 2.20-2.35 mg/mL and 0.310-0.340 mg/mL,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Established method is simple,rapid,accurate and can be used for quality control of C. monnieri liniment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the quality standard of Fufang Tianma Gouteng Orally Disintegrating Tablets. Methods Gastrodiae Rhizoma, Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis, Angelicae Sinensis Radix and Paeoniae Radix Alba in the preparation were identified by TLC, the content of gastrodin in gastrodia was determined by HPLC. Results The herbs of preparation could be identified by TLC without interference. Gastrodin showed a good linear relationship in the range of 0.191 2-1.147 2 μg (r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 97.72% (RSD=1.40%, n=6). Conclusion The methods are available with a good reproducibility, and can control the quality of the preparation effectively.
