Determination of Astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli and Its Preparations by Online SPE-Liquid Chromatography with Charged Aerosol Detector / 分析化学

ABSTRACT

A novel method for quantification of astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli was developed by using online SPE liquid chromatography coupled with corona charged aerosol detection( CAD) . The sample solution was loaded into Acclaim Polar AdvantageⅡC18(50 mm×4. 6 mm, 3 μm) which was selected as online SPE column. Then the cleaning process was done by using the Right one of dual gradient pumps with Methanol-water as mobile phase. Acclaim C18(150 mm×4. 6 mm, 5 μm) was selected as analytical column with acetonitrile-water as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1. 0 mL/min. The eluate containing the target from SPE column was transferred into the analytical column by heart-cutting mode. The temperature of nebulizer of corona CAD was set at 30 ℃ and the nitrogen pressure was 241. 3 kPa. The baseline separation of astragaloside IV from matrix components has been achieved. There was a good linear correlation in the range of 4 . 0-80 mg/L for astragaloside IV and the correlation coefficient was 0 . 9998 . The standard addition average recovery of astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli was 97 . 6%. It has been validated that astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli and its preparations can be quantified rapidly and accurately with this method.
