Research on the quality standard of Baoyun pill / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To improve the quality standard of Baoyun pill. Methods The natures of Psoralea corylifolia, Radix Dipsaci and Loranthus parasiticus were detected by thin layer chromatography (TLC); the content of Hesperidine were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The operating conditions by HPLC were InertSustain C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm ), the mixture of methanol-acetic acid-water (35461) as mobile phase, 1.0 ml/min as flow speed and wavelength 283 nm. Results The results showed that the TLC spots of Psoralea corylifolia, Radix Dipsaci and Loranthus parasiticus were fairly clear, and the according blank test showed no interference. Hesperidine showed a good linear relationship within the range of 0.820-4.920 μg(r=1.000 0)with an average recovery of 99.85%(RSD=0.21%).Conclusions The TLC and HPLC are handy,safe and accurate for Baoyun pills to determine the quality.
