ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish the quality standard for Yunüjian granules. Methods:Rehmannia glutinosa, rhizoma anemar-rhenae and achyranthes in the granules were identified by TLC. The HPLC method was adopted. A SunfireTM C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) was used with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-0. 1% acetic acid solution(16∶84) at the column tempera-ture of 30 ℃. The flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 ,the detection wavelength was 334nm, and the imjection volume was 10 μl. Results:The TLC spots of verbascoside, and sarsasapogenin in rhizoma anemarrhenae and cyasterone in achyranthes were quite clear with good seperation. The linear range of verbascoside was within the range of 0.163-0.612 μg(r=0.999 9), and the average recovery was 101. 3%(RSD=2. 7%,n=6). Conclusion:The method is simple, reliable and accurate, and can be applied in the quality control of Ynnüjian granules.
