ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish an HPLC-DAD-ELSD method for the simultaneous determination of eight main active components in Buyang Huanwu Decoction, including hydroxysafflor yellow A, paeoniflorin, calycosin glycoside, ferulic acid, ononin, calycosin, fermononetin and astragaloside.Methods:Agilent Eclipse XDB-C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) was used with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min; the column temperature was 30 ℃; the detection wavelengths were 230 nm (paeoniflorin), 254 nm (calycosin glycoside, ononin, calycosin, fermononetin), 322 nm (ferulic acid) and 403 nm (hydroxysafflor yellow A); the drift tube temperature of the evaporative light scattering detector was 60 ℃; the carrier gas flow rate was 1.6 L/min.Results:Under these conditions, the separation of hydroxysafflor yellow A, paeoniflorin, calycosin glycoside, ferulic acid, ononin, calycosin, fermononetin and astragaloside was good, and the linear relationship was in line with the requirements ( r=0.994 0-0.999 9). The average recovery was 97.8% - 101.4% ( RSD was 1.28% - 3.70%). Conclusion:The method is simple, stable and reproducible, and can be used for the quality control of Buyang Huanwu Decoction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To exPlore the effect of samPle_solVent comPositions on the determination of AstragaliⅣby high Performance liquid chromatograPh_ eVaPoratiVe light scattering detector ( HPLC_ELSD ) . Methods Radix astragali and ganduqing granules serVed as samPles. Methanol,90%methanol,80%methanol,70%methanol,32%acetonitrile,15%acetonitrile, and water were samPle solVents. HPLC_ELSD was used to determine content of astragalosideⅣ. Results The results showed that the 90%methanol solution was an aPProPriate samPle solVent with good system suitability,Precision,accuracy,and,linearity etc. . Conclusion This method benefits the quality control of astragalosideⅣin Radix astragali and agents containing Radix astragali.
