Simultaneous determination of liquiritin, glycyrrhizic acid and glycyrrhetinic acid in Xianlong-Jiedu Yin by HPCE / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To simultaneously determine the quantify liquiritin, glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrrhizic acid inXianlong-Jiedu Yin by high performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE).Methods HPCE method was performed on a fused silica capillary coates 75μm×85 cm (effective column length 78.5 cm) using 50 mmol/L borax solution-acetonitrile (955), with adjusted pH=8.50 as running buffer, lytical 22 kV, and electrokinetic injection 10 s, detected wave length of 254 nm, and temprature maintaining 25℃.Results The liquiritin, glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrrhizic acid were completely separated within 30 minutes, showing good linear relationship in the range of 12-120, 15-150, 8-160μg/ml (r>0.999 3). The average recoveries were 100.70%, 98.51%, 98.40% withRSD 2.49%, 2.79%, 0.40%, respectively.Conclusions The HPCE was suitable for the determination of liquiritin, glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrrhizic acid inXianLong-JieDu Yin, which can be used for the quality control.
