Dissolution of Longdan Xiegan Pill by HPLC / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM: To determine the dissolution of Longdan Xiegan Pills(Radix et Rhizoma Gentianae,Radix Scutellariae,Fructus Gardeniae,etc.) on the basis of markers such as gentiopicroside,baicalin and geniposide. METHODS: According to Appendix ⅩCⅢ of Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2005 edition VolⅡ,dissolution medium was 100 mL 0.5% SDS aqueous solution and rotating speed was 100 r/min.The dissolution solution of pill was taken and analyzed by HPLC method.A column of Kromasil C_(18)(4.6 mm?250 mm,5 ?m) was used.The mobile phase composed of A acetonitrile,B 1% glacial acetic acid aqueous solution,gradient eluation.The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min with the detection wavelength at 254 nm. RESULTS: The average dissolution of three batches of gentiopicroside,baicalin and geniposide exceeded the marker amount by factor of 0.75 time in 4 h. CONCLUSION: A reliable and qualitative method is established with good reproducibility for determination of dissolution of Longdan Xiegan Pills.
