RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of lysophosphatidyl choline(LPC)and lysophos-phatidyl ethanolamine(LPE)in Nimodipine fat emulsion. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Lichrosher Diol with detector of evaporative light scattering detector with mobile phase A of heptane- isopropyl alcohol solution(43∶57,V/V),mobile phase B n-heptane-isopropyl alcohol-water(29.5∶59∶11.5,V/V/V)(gradient elution)at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min,column tempera-ture was 40℃,and the injection volume was 20 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 0.020 0-0.400 0 mg/ml for LPC(r=0.999 0)and 0.010 0-0.200 0 mg/ml for LPE(r=0.999 6),and the logarithm value of concentration and peak area showed good linear relationship;the limit of quantitation was 0.013 4 mg/ml for LPC and 0.013 0 mg/ml for LPE;the limit of detection was 0.007 8 mg/ml for LPC and 0.007 6 mg/ml for LPE;RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2%;recoveries were 95.96%-100.63%(RSD=1.83%,n=9)and 99.22%-101.76%(RSD=0.80%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,and can be used for the determination of related substance in Nimodipine fat emulsion.
