Content Determination of Hypericin in Guanye Jinsitao Drop Pills by HPLC / 中国中医药信息杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To build a method for content determination of Hypericin in Guanye Jinsitao drop pills by HPLC.Methods The column was Kromasil C18 (150 mm×4.6 mm, 5μm), mobile phase was acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid (16∶84), UV detection was performed at 360 nm, the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, and the detector drift tube temperature was set at 30℃.Results The calibration curves were linear in the range of 0.132-1.188μg for Hypericin (r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 99.55% (RSD=0.78%).Conclusion The method is simple, accurate, reliable, and can be used for the quality control of Hypericin in Guanye Jinsitao drop pills.
