Studies on content determination and extraction method of iridoid glycosides in Morinda of ficinalis How / 药学实践杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To develop a method for determination of iridoid glycosides in Morinda officinalis How.and optimize the extraction methods for iridoid glycosides in Morinda officinalis How.Methods The iridoid glycosides, including monotropein, deacetyl asperulosidic acid,asperulosidic acid and asperuloside as standards, HPLC method was developed to determine the content of iridoid glycosides in Morinda officinalis How.The separation was performed on Venusil MP C18 (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) column.The mobile phase was acetonitrile (A)-0.2% phosphoric acid and 0.01 disodium hydrogen phosphate buffer salt (B) with gradient elution (0-12 min, 1%-2% A;12-30 min, 2%-25% A).The detection wavelength was 235 nm.The flow rate was set at 1.0 ml/min and the column temperature at 25 ℃.The injection volume was 20 μl.Single factor analysis and orthogonal test were used to optimize extraction method of iridoid glycosides in Morinda officinalis How.Results Monotropein, deacetyl asperulosidic acid, asperulosidic acid and asperuloside showed good linearity (r>0.999 5) in the ranges of 0.375-12 μg, 0.13-4.16 μg, 0.016-0.516 μg and 0.012-0.384 μg, respectively.This validated method has good repeatability, precision, recovery and stability.It was conformed to meet the requirements and regulation.The optimal extraction method included soaking the raw materials with 16 times of 10% ethanol for 9 h, and then extraction by percolation with the flow rate of 0.8 BV/h.Conclusion The HPLC method sensitively and precisely determined the content of iridoid glycosides in Morinda officinalis How.The optimized extraction method extracted these constituents effectively.
