Résumé
Objective To establish an HPLC method for the determination of anthraquinones including rhein, emodin and chrysophanol in xinshenyan capsules. Methods Anthraquinones were determined by HPLC with Phenomenex-C18 column (250 mm×4. 6 mm, 5 μm) as the chromatographic column and methanol-1% acetic acid (70:30) as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1. 0 mL·min-1 and the detection wavelength was set at 254 nm. Results The liner range of rhein, emodin and chrysophanol was 4. 96-24. 80 μg·mL-1(r=0. 999 6), 6. 58-32. 91 μg·mL-1(r=0. 999 9) ,and 15. 11-75. 55 μg·mL-1 (r=0. 999 9),respectively, and the average recovery was 100. 78%, 98. 13% and 99. 29%, respectively. Conclusion The method is simple and practical, the result is accurate and reliable and it can be used to determine the contents of rhein, emodin and chrysophanol in xinshenyan capsules.
Résumé
Objective:To establish the quality control of Zhiqikang capsules. Methods:TLC was used to identify Gastrodia tuder halimasch, rhubarb and Astragalus mongholicus in the preparations. A spectrophotometry method with 3, 5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) was used to measure the polysaccharide content in Zhiqikang capsules. A spectrophotometry method with Forint phenol method ( Low-ry) was used to measure the peptide content in the capsules. Results:The linear range of polysaccharide was obtained between 6. 412 and 32. 060μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 5), the average recovery was 95. 86% and RSD was 0. 86%. The linear range of peptide was ob-tained between 0.059 7 and 0.298 4 mg·ml-1(r=0.999 0), the average recovery was 100.3% and RSD was 1.88%(n=6). Conclusion:The assay method is simple and accurate in the quality control of the preparations.
