Quantitative Analysis of Diosgenin in Jingangteng Soft Capsule by RP-HPLC / 中药新药与临床药理

ABSTRACT

Objective To determine diosgenin content in Jingangteng soft capsule by RP-HPLC.Methods A RP-HPLC was performed on a Shim-Pak VP-ODS C18column(5?m,4.6 mm? 250 mm),the mobile phase consisting of acetonitri le-H2O(87∶13) and the detected wavelength at 209 nm.Results A good line arity was obtained in the range 0.0595～ 14.875 ? g(r=0.99999) for diosgenin. The average recovery and RSD were 99.4 % and 2.0 % respectively(n=5).Concl usion The method is simple,rapid,stable and reliable,and can be used to determine diosgenin content in Jingangteng soft capsule.
