ABSTRACT
AIM To establish an HPLC method for the simuhaneous content determination of five flavonoids in Duchesnea indica (Andr.) Focke at five picking time (April,May,June,July and August).METHODS The analysis of D.indica methanol extract was performed on a 25 ℃ thermostatic Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm),the mobile phase comprising of acetointrile-0.1％ methanoic acid flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 350 nm.RESULTS Rutin,hyperoside,isoquercitrin,celereoin and kaempferol showed good linear relationships within their own ranges (R2 ≥0.998 6),whose average recoveries were 97.1％-101.5％ with the RSDs of 1.37％-2.37％.The contents of five constituents in samples at different picking time exhibited obvious differences,among which lutin and hyperoside contents were the highest in June,isoquercitrin content was the highest in July,and celereoin and kaempferol contents were the highest in August.CONCLUSION The suitable picking time of D.indica is June and July.
ABSTRACT
AIM To analyze the dynamic changes of five constituents in Ligustri lucidi Fructus at five picking time (August,September,October,November,December).METHODS The HPLC analysis of Ligustri lucidi Fructus ethanol extract was performed on a 25 ℃ thermostatic Aglient Zorbax SB-C1s column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.1％ phosphoric acid flowing at 1 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 224 nm.RESULTS Salidroside,tyrosol,luteolin-7-O-glucoside,ligustroflavone and specnuezhenide showed good linear relationships within their own ranges (r ＞0.999 0),whose average recoveries were 99.56％-100.30％ with the RSDs of 0.89％-1.23％.The contents of various constituents (except for tyrosol) were the highest in samples picked up in September,followed by those picked up in October.CONCLUSION The suitable picking time of Ligustri lucidi Fructus is September and October.
