Quality standard improvement of Compound Isodon Rernifolia (D.Don) Kudo Tablets / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM: HPLC-ELSD method was established to investigate the content of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid in Compound Isodon Rernifolia(D.Don) Kudo Tablets. METHODS: The determination of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid was conducted by HPLC-ELSD using a Agilent Eclipse XDB-C_(18)(4.6 mm?250 mm,5 ?m) column;The mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.5% ammonium acetate solution(82∶18).The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min.The column temperature was set at 30 ?C.The drift tube temperature was set at 85 ?C.The gas flow rate was 2.0 L/min. RESULTS: The linear ranges of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid were 0.45-2.69 ?g(r=0.999 9) and 0.63-3.75 ?g(r=0.999 3),respectively.The average recoveries of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid were(100.3%)(RSD=1.32%) and 100.6%(RSD=1.66%),respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is simple,accurate,and specific which is better than the original one.
