ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a method for the determination of hesPeridin and cinnamaldehyde in siweiqing buccal tablets. Methods A high Performance liquid chromatograPhy ( HPLC) method was established. The chromatograPhic conditions were as follows: the chromatograPhic column Inertsil ODS_SP ( 4. 6 mmí150 mm, 5 μm ) with the mixture of acetonitrile and water as mobile Phase in gradient mode,the detection waVelength of 290 nm,the flow rate of 1. 0 mL·min-1 ,the column temPerature of 30℃,the theoretical Plate number no less than 3 000. Results The linear relationshiP between content and Peak area was obtained in the range of 0. 025-0. 500 μg for cinnamaldehyde and 0. 10-2. 00 μg for hesPeridin. RSD of the Peak area of cinnamaldehyde and hesPeridin for the Precision test,the stability test and the rePeatability test were 1. 16%and 1. 03%,1. 27%and 1. 08%,1. 23%and 1. 28%,resPectiVely. The aVerage recoVery of cinnamaldehyde was 99. 24%with RSD of 1. 65%(n=9). The aVerage recoVery of hesPeridin was 99. 39%with RSD of 1. 85%(n=9). Conclusion The method can be aPPlied to quantitatiVe assay of cinnamaldehyde and hesPeridin in siweiqing buccal tablets with good reProducibility and sPecificity. The recoVery result met the accePtance criteria. The method can effectiVely control the quality of siweiqing buccal tablets with good sPecificity,reProducibility and stability,and can be aPPlied to the quality control of siweiqing buccal tablets.
