Content Determination of 4 Indicator Components in Shengyu Decoction Lyophilized Powder by HPLC / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE：To establish the content determin ation method of ferulic acid ，verbascoside，ligustilide and astragaloside in Shengyu decoction lyophilized powder. METHODS ：HPLC method was adopted to determine 4 components in 3 batches of lyophilized powder. The determination of ferulic acid ，verbascoside and ligustilide was performed on Inertsil ODS-SP C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of methanol- 0.1％ phosphoric acid （gradient elution ）at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min；detector was diode array detector ；detection wavelength was set at 330 nm；column temperature was 30 ℃，the sample size was 10 μL. The determination of astragaloside was performed on Kromasil C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water （32∶68，V/ V）；detector was evaporative light scattering detector ；the drift tube temperature wa s 100 ℃，the carrier gas （air）flow rate was 2.5 L/min at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min；column temperature was 30 ℃，the sample size was 10 μL. RESULTS：The linear ranges of ferulic acid ，verbascoside，ligustilide and astragaloside were 0.050 15-10.03 μg（r＝0.999 8），0.067 80-13.56 μg（r＝ 0.999 9），0.057 30-11.46 μg（r＝0.999 5），1.128-11.28 μg（r＝0.999 3），respectively. The detection limits were 2.12×10－4，1.30× 10－3，8.02×10－4，1.09×10－3 μg，respectively. The limit of quantification were 7.43×10－4，3.87×10－3，2.34×10－3，3.36×10－3 μg， respectively. RSDs of precision ，stability（12 h）and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2％（n＝6）. Average recovery rates were 99.6％（RSD＝0.83％，n＝6），100.9％（RSD＝1.07％，n＝6），98.8％（RSD＝0.84％，n＝6）and 101.3％（RSD＝0.99％， n＝6），respectively. The contents of ferulic acid ，verbascoside，ligustilide and astragaloside in 3 batches of samples were 1.225-1.248， 0.413-0.424， 0.325-0.332， 0.394-0.404 mg/g， respectively （RSDs among batches were lower than 1.5％ ）. CONCLUSIONS：Established method is stable ，reproducible，rapid and accurate for the content determination of ferulic acid ， verbascoside， ligustilide and astragaloside in Shengyu
