Simultaneous Determination of Baicalin,Linarin,Rhein in Cuochuang Xiaoyan Lotion by HPLC Method / 医药导报

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a specific HPLC method for simultaneous determination of three components ( baicalin, linarin and rhein) in Cuochuang Xiaoyan lotion. Methods The three components in Cuochuang Xiaoyan lotion were assayed by HPLC gradient elution method.The assay was performed with Waters Xterra MS C18(4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm) column, with acetonitrile (A) and 0.2% phosphoric acid solution (B) as mobile phase in gradient elution.The flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1.The detection wave length was 277 nm and column temperature was 30 ℃. Results Three components were completely separated from the adjacent peaks and a good linear relationship between each sample concentration and integral area was obtained.The linear equations were as followsYbaicalin=9.208X-0.0994(R2=0.9999, 83.97-839.70 μg·mL-1);Ylinarin=3.0628X-0.0038 ( R2 = 0. 9999, 34. 75-347. 49 μg · mL-1 );Yrhein = 1. 0225X-0. 0286 ( R2 = 0. 9998, 63. 20-632.00 μg·mL-1 ) . Conclusion The HPLC method is simple, accurate and reproducible, which is effective in controlling the quality of Cuochuang Xiaoyan lotion.
