ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the effect of 60Co-γ ray irradiation on the contents of danshensu,protocatechuic aldehyde,puerarin and salviamolic acid B in Tongmai granules by HPLC. Methods: An Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse XDB C18(2) column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm) was adopted and the wavelength of UV detection was 280 nm at the flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1. The mobile phase consisted of 0. 1% phosphoric acid (B) and acetonitrile (A) with gradient elution, and the column temperature was 35℃. Tongmai granules were irradiated by 60Co-γ ray respectively at 0, 2, 5,10 and kGy,the contents of the active ingredients were compared before and after the irradiation. Results: The linear range of danshensu,protocatechuic aldehyde,puerarin and salviamolic acid B was 0. 098-4. 925 μg, 0. 028-1. 411 μg, 0. 378-18. 882 μg and 0. 218-10. 888 μg, respectively. The average recovery was 99. 8% , 97. 7% , 99. 9% and 99. 9% , respectively. When the radiation dose was not more than 2 kGy, the contents of the five components did not change significantly (P>0. 05). After 5 kGy radiation, the contents of protocatechuic aldehyde and salviamolic acid B were signifi-cantly different (P <0. 05). Conclusion: The dose of 60Co ray should be controlled not more than 2 kGy, and the sterilization method is safe and effective for Tongmai granules.
ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a method for simultaneous determination of three hydrophilic components and two lipophilic components in Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae. Methods The RP-HPLC method was performed by using a Welchrom C18 column(250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm)with a mobile phase of acetonitrile (A)-0.1%phosphoric acid(B). The gradient elution program was as follows:0-15 min,10%→12%A;-35 min,12%→20%A;-45 min,20%→60%A;-65 min,60%→65%A;-80 min,65%→80%A;-90 min,10%A. The flow rate was kept at 1.0 mL?min-1 . The detection wavelength was set at 280 nm. The column temperature was 30 ℃ . Results A good linearity was obtained over 0.059 5-2.380 0 μg for tanshinol, 0.346 0-13. 840 0 μg for rosmarinic acid, 0. 656 0 - 26. 240 0 μg for salviamolic acid B, 0. 420 0 - 16.800 0 μg for cryptotanshinone and 0.414 0- 16.560 0 μg for tanshinoneIIA, respectively ( r = 0.999 9). The average recovery rates were between 98.69%-100.91% with RSD less than 1.2%(n = 6). Conclusion The method is rapid, accurate, credible and repeatable, and can provide basis for the quality control of Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhiza.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To develop a new method for the simultaneous determination of two hydrophilic components and two lipophilic components of Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae. Methods: The HPLC-DAD method was employed using a column of Agilent Zorbax TC C18 (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm) with a mobile phase of methanol -2% acetic acid. The gradient elution program was as follow:0-15 min, 30% B-40% B; 15-20 min, 40% B-60% B; 20-25 min, 60% B-90% B; 25-40 min, 90% B. The detection wavelength was set at 281 nm and the temperature was 35°C. Results: The linearity was obtained over 3.76-120.20 μg · ml-1 (r=0.999 9) for rosmarinic acid, 34.20-109 4.5 μg · ml-1 (r=0.999 9) for salviamolic acid B, 0.64-20.32 μg · ml-1 (r=0.999 9) for clyptotanshinon, and 1.02-32.72 μg · ml-1 (r=0.999 6) for tanshinone II A. The RSDs of precision and stability of the sample were both less than 1% in 48 hours. The average recovery was between 99.72%-100.63%. Conclusion: The present method is simple and has satisfactory efficacy; it can simultaneously determine multiple hydrophilic and lipophilic bioactive components in Salvia miltiorrhiza from different areas.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To develop a RP-HPLC method for simultaneously determining two components,ferulic acid and salviamolic acid B in Lemai Granules(Radix et Rhizoma salviae miltiorrhizae,Rhizoma Chuangxiong,Radix Paeoniae ruba,Flos Carthami,etc). METHODS: The analysis was carried out on a Diamonsil-C_(18)(200 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)column.The mobile phase was acetonitrile-formic acid-triethylamine-water(18.6(∶)2(∶)1(∶)81,v/v/v) and the flow rate was 1.3 mL/min.The detection wavelength was set at 320 nm and column temperature was at 35 ℃. RESULTS: The linear ranges of ferulic acid and salviamolic acid B were within 0.51-5.1 ?g/mL(r=(0.999 9)),35.8-358.0 ?g/mL(r=(0.999 8)),respectively.The average recoveries(n=9) were 99.4%(RSD=1.0%),99.3%(RSD=0.53%),respectively. CONCLUSION: This method is simple and can be used to determine these two components with satisfactory accuracy and reproducibility.
