Determination of Paeoniflorin in Gujing Pill by HPLC / 中药新药与临床药理

Objective To establish a method for the content determination of paeoniflorin in Gujing Pill. Methods Orthogonal test was used to optimize the condition of sample extraction and paeoniflorin content was detected by HPLC. HPLC was performed with Merck- LiChrospher RP- C18 column(4.6? 250 mm,5 ? m); methanol- water (25 ∶ 75) served as mobile phase and the detection wavelength was at 230 nm, the flow rate being 0.8 mL/min. Results Paeoniflorin has a good linearity within 0.27～ 1.35? g(r=0.9998) and the average recovery was 97.08 % with RSD 2.02 % (n=10). Conclusion This method is simple, sensitive, specific and can be used for the quality control of Gujing Pill.
