RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To establish the HPLC fingerprint chromatogram of Danzhen headache capsules. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The column was Dikma Diamonsil C18 with the mobile phase of methanol-acetonitrile-water(gradient elution) at the flow rate of 1.0 ml/min;the temperature was 40 ℃,the detection wavelength was 340 nm,the sample size was 20 μl and the detection time was 65 min. RESULTS:RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were no more than 0.23%;13 com-mon peaks were identified in 10 batches of Danzhen headache capsules and the similarity of all samples were higher than 0.90. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,accurate and reproducible,and can be used for the process stability evaluation and quali-ty control of Danzhen headache capsules.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To establish a RP-HPLC method for simultaneously determination of swertiamarin, gentiopicroside, sweroside, isoorientin in Gentiana lawrencei from Qinghai province.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The RP-HPLC method was used. Chromatographic column was the Kromasil C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm). The gradient elution solvent system was composed of acetonitrile (A) and (0.1% H3PO4) water (B). The ratio of acetonitrile was as follows: 0.00-27.00 min, 10% -17% (A); 27.00-45.00 min, 17% -33% (A); 45.01-55.00 min, 100%-100% (A). The detective wavelength was 240 nm; the flow rate was 1 mL x min(-1); column temperature was set at 25 degrees C.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Swertiamarin, gentiopicroside, sweroside and isoorientin were base-isolated. The method had good linearity within the ranges of 2.12-10.6 mg x mL(-1) for swertiamarin (r = 0.999 4), 2.46-12.3 g x L(-1) for gentiopicroside (r = 0.999 7), 2.47-12.4 g x L(-1) for sweroside (r = 0.999 2) and 0.309-1.54 mg x mL(-1) for isoorientin (r = 0.999 5).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The method is rapid, precise and repeatable, can be applied to control the quality of G. lawrencei.</p>
