ABSTRACT
Objective: To establish a UPLC-MS/MS analysis method for determination of baicalin, geniposide, chlorogenic acid, cholic acid and hyodeoxycholic acid in Qingkailing (lyophilized) for injection in rat plasma, and to investigate the pharmacokinetic behavior of this preparation in normal and cerebral ischemic rats. Method: Rats were randomly divided into normal group and cerebral ischemia model group. The rat model of cerebral ischemia was established by suture embolization. The rats were given by intraperitoneal injection, and normal saline was used as the solvent. Blood samples were taken at the corresponding time points. After treatment, UPLC-MS/MS was used to determine the blood concentration of five components. The main detection conditions were mobile phase of 0.1%formic acid aqueous solution-acetonitrile for gradient elution (0-0.25 min, 90%A; 0.25-1 min, 90%-75%A; 1-2 min, 75%-50%A; 2-2.6 min, 50%-45%A; 2.6-2.65 min, 45%-90%A; 2.65-4.0 min, 90%A), the flow rate of 0.4 mL·min-1, the column temperature at 40℃, electrospray ionization under negative ion mode. The pharmacokinetic parameters were fitted and the bioavailability was calculated, the differences of treatment process of five components from Qingkailing (lyophilized) for injection in normal and cerebral ischemic rats were analyzed. Result: Compared with the normal group, the area under the curve (AUC0-t) of geniposide in rats from cerebral ischemia model group decreased significantly after intraperitoneal injection of Qingkailing (lyophilized) for injection (PTmax) of chlorogenic acid in rats from cerebral ischemia model group was significantly earlier than that in the normal group (PConclusion: Qingkailing (lyophilized) for injection has a certain difference in the treatment process between normal and cerebral ischemic rats, which has certain guiding significance for the clinical treatment of cerebral ischemic diseases with this preparation.
ABSTRACT
AIM To establish an HPLC method for the content determination of six constituents in Qingkailing Freeze-Dried Powder for Injection (cholic acid,hyodeoxycholic acid,Bubali Cornu,etc.).METHODS The content determination of adenosine,chlorogenic acid and gardenoside was performed on a 30 ℃ thermostatic XBridge C1s column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-water (containing 0.1％ formic acid) flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 254 nm.The content determination of baicalin,hyodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid was performed on a 35 ℃ thermostatic XBridge C1s column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of methanol-water (containing 0.1％ formic acid) flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner.RESULTS Six constituents showed good linear relationships within the ranges of 2.244-56.108,2.658-66.445,4.347-108.682,122.01-1 016.75,131.94-1 099.50,152.22-1 268.50 μg/mL (r ＞ 0.999 0),whose average recoveries (RSDs) were 101.1％ (0.46％),98.0％ (1.74％),99.7％ (0.15％),100.9％ (1.31％),98.1％(0.18％),98.2％ (1.61％),respectively.CONCLUSION This stable and reproducible method can be used for the quality control of Qingkailing Freeze-Dried Powder for Injection.
ABSTRACT
AIM To establish an HPLC method for the simultaneous content determination of four constituents in Kesuting Capsules (a fast cough suppressant,containing Ephedrae Herba,Papaveris Pericarpium,Platycodonis Radix,etc.).METHODS The analysis of trichloromethane-strong ammonia extract of Kesuting Capsules was performed on a 35 ℃ thermostatic Welch Ultimate(◎) XB-C18 column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.01 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer flowing at 1.0 mL/min in an isocratic elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 210 nm.RESULTS Morphine,ephedrine hydrochloride,pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and codeine phosphate showed good linear relationships within the ranges of 8.054-67.12 μg/mL (r =0.999 5),22.31-185.9 μg/mL (r =0.999 9),21.26-177.2 μg/mL (r =0.999 7) and 1.212-10.09 μg/mL (r =0.999 7),whose average recoveries (n =9) were 100.9％ (RSD =2.0％),101.4％ (RSD =3.6％),105.3％ (RSD =1.2％) and 106.2％ (RSD =1.2％),respectively.CONCLUSION This simple method can be used for the rapid quality control of Kesuting Capsules.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To optimize the solid-phase extraction method by comparison of the extraction recovery of ginsenoside Re plasma samples.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>After extracted by different solid-phase cartridges with water, acetonitrile, and different content methanol elution, the plasma samples were analyzed on an Zorbax SB-C18 column with acetonitrile-water gradient elution. From the recovery achieved, the best solid phase cartridge was found.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>This method consists of using 40% methanol as the wash solvent, and 80% methanol for the elution. Among the three kinds of solid-phase being tested, Waters Oasis HLB cartridge was found to be the best one.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The average extraction recovery of the Waters Oasis HLB cartridges was between 103%-113%, it can be used in the analysis of ginsenoside Re in plasma samples.</p>
