Study on Quality Standard for Aitongxiao Granules / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish the quality standard for Aitongxiao granules. Methods:TLC was used to identify Herba Hedy-otis Diffusa, Herba Scutell Barbatae, Radix Astragali and Radix Paeoniae Rubra in Aitongxiao granules, and the content of scutellarin was determined by HPLC. The stationary phase was a Kromasial C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5μm), the mobile phase was metha-nol-3% acetic acid (33∶67), the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1, the detection wavelength was at 335 nm, and the temperature was 25℃. Results:The characteristic TLC spots of the granule samples were the same as those of the standard samples without any inter-ference from the negative control. Scutellarin had a good linear relationship within the range of 2.18-10.90μg·ml-1(r=0.999 9), and the average recovery was 96. 65% with RSD of 1. 45﹪(n=6). Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate, reliable and repro-ducible, which could be used in the quality control of Aitongxiao granules.
