Determination of Seven Active Components Compared with Fufang Danshen Tablets and Dripping Pills by HPLC / 医药导报

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a HPLC method for simultaneous determination of seven active components in Fufang Danshen tablets and Fufang Danshen dripping pills. Methods These seven compounds were analyzed simultaneously with a Zorbax C18 column by gradient elution using acetonitrile-0. 1% phosphoric acid solution as mobile phase, the flow rate was 1 mL·min-1 and the detection wavelength was set at 203, 270 and 281 nm, respectively. Results All the seven components showed good linear relation between peak area and concentration of the test, and the average recoveries were between 95. 1%-100. 4%. Tanshinone ⅡA was not detected in samples of dropping pills. Conclusion The HPLC method to determine the components including tanshinone ⅡA, salvianolic acid B, propanoid acid, protocatechuic aldehyde, notoginsenoside R1 , ginsenoside Rg1 and ginsenoside Rb1 of the two different Danshen preparations has been established, and it has the advantages of simplicity, high precision, good repeatability, and can be used for the quality control of two kinds of Fufang Danshen preparations. The content of tanshinone Ⅱ A in Fufang Danshen tablet was distinctly higher than that of dropping pills.
