Simultaneous Determination of Total Content of p-Hydroxybenzoic Acid plus o-Hydroxybenzoic Acid and p-Hydroxybenzeneacetic Acid in Senecio Scandens Buc / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective: To set up an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of p-hydroxybenzoic acid plus o-hydroxy-benzoic acid and p-hydroxybenzeneacetic acid in Senecio scandens Buch. Methods:The column was a Shiseido( Fine Chemicals) Cap-cell Pak C18 (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) column at the room temperature. The mobile phase was methanol-water-formic acid (13∶87∶0. 5) at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 . The detection wavelength was 240nm. Results: p-Hydroxybenzoic acid plus o-hydroxybenzoic acid had a favorable linear relationship within the range of 0. 025-0. 400 mg·ml-1 , the regression equation was Y=5. 94 × 106 X+2.46×104(r=0.9998),theaveragerecoverywas97.59% andRSDwas1.22%. p-Hydroxybenzeneaceticacidhadafavorableline-ar relationship within the range 0.05-0.80 mg·ml-1, the regression equation was Y=4.09 ×106X+1.12 ×104(r=0.999 8), the average recovery was 98. 07% and RSD was 1. 90%. Conclusion:The method is simple, feasible and reproducible. It can be used in the quality control of p-hydroxybenzoic acid plus o-hydroxybenzoic acid and p-hydroxybenzeneacetic acid in Senecio scandens Buch.
