RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of the contents of ligustroflavone,specnuezhe-nide,demethylwedelolactone and wedelolactone in Zibu ganshen pill. METHODS:Dual-wavelength HPLC was performed on the column of Elite C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.5%acetic acid(gradient elution)at flow rate of 0.9 ml/min,column temper-ature was 25 ℃,detection wavelengths were 224 nm(0-30 min) and 351 nm (30-50 min),and the injection volume was 20 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 6.75-135.00μg/ml(r=0.999 5)for ligustroflavone,6.54-130.80μg/ml(r=0.999 8)for specnuezhe-nide,4.90-98.00μg/ml(r=0.999 4)for demethylwedelolactone and 6.42-128.40μg/ml(r=0.999 6)for wedelolactone;RSDs of pre-cision,stability and reproducibility tests were no more than 1.25%;average recoveries were 96.15%-99.96%(RSD<2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is rapid,sensitive and accurate,and can be used for the contents determination of ligustroflavone, specnuezhenide,demethylwedelolactone and wedelolactone in Zibu ganshen pill.
