Pharmacokinetic study of schisanhenol via femoral intravenous administration in rats / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish an HPLC method for the determination of schisanhenol in plasma and to study the pharmacokinetics of schisanhenol in rats.Methods After sedimentation by methanol,plasma samples were then prepared based on a liquid-liquid extraction by ether.The extracted samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography.Schisanhenol was eluted on Eclipse XDB-C18 Agilent(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) column,using a mobile phase of acetonitrile-H2O(65∶35),and detected at 254 nm.The plasma concentration of schisanhenol in rats was determined after iv administration of 18 mg/kg,and the data were processed with the pharmacokinetic software 3P87.Results Calibration curves were linear over 0.1—2.5 ?g/mL (r2=0.999) and the LOD was 10 ng/mL.The recoveries of schisanhenol from plasma were between 88%—110%,and the RSD values of intra-day and interday assay were below 15%.After iv administration at 18 mg/kg,the schisanhenol concentration-time curve confirmed in a two-compartment model and the pharmacokinetic parameters of t1/2?,t1/2?,V,AUC,MRT were(0.22?0.11) h,(1.19?0.22) h,(12.81?2.91) L/kg,(1.32?0.19) ?g/mL/h,(1.51?0.24) h,respectively.Conclusion A reliable HPLC-DAD method is developed for the determination of schisanhenol in rat plasma and it is applicable to the in vivo analysis.
