Simultaneous determination of five active components in Fangshu Qingre mixture by RP-HPLC / 药学实践杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a method for simultaneous determination of chlorogenic acid, luteolin-7-O-β-D-glucoside,3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, linarin and pogostone in Fangshu Qingre mixture by RP-HPLC. Methods ZORBAX-SB-C18 column(4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm) was used as the chromatographic column.The mobile phase was 0.2% formic acid water solution(A) and acetonitrile solution (B)with a gradient elution mode. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min.The detective wavelength was 327 nm. The column temperature was 30 ℃. Results There were good linear relationships in the determination of chlorogenic acid, luteolin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, linarin and pogostone (r≥0.999 6), with the average recovery rate of 102.03%(1.63%), 102.38%(1.51%), 102.39%(1.23%), 103.14%(1.87%) and 104.01%(2.33%). Conclusion The method was simple and stable with a good reproducibility, which could be used as a quality control method for active compotents in Fangshu Qingre mixture.
