Quality standard for Qidan Granules / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM: To establish the quality standard for Qidan Granules(Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae,Radix Astragali,Myrrha,Rhizoma Curcumae;Faeces Togopteri). METHODS: Myrrh,Rhizoma Curcumae and Faeces Trogopteri in Qidan Granules were identified by TLC.The content of tanshinone Ⅱ_A was determined by HPLC.The astragaloside content was determined by HPLC-ELSD. RESULTS: Myrrh,Rhizoma Curcumae and Faeces Trogopteri could be identified by TLC.There was a good linear relationship between the peak area and quantity of tanshinone Ⅱ_A at the range of 2.98-953.6 ng,r=0.999 9,and the recovery was 100.6%,RSD was(0.5%.) Also,there was a good natural logarithm linear relationship between the peak area and quantity of astragaloside at the range of 2.05-40.92 ?g,r=0.999 8,and the recovery was 102.0%,RSD was 1.8%.(CONCLUSION:) The method can be used to set up the quality standard for Qidan Granules.
