ABSTRACT

Objective:Dissolution test was applied to study the dissolution rates of strychnine from the normal and ultramicro powder of semen strychi. Methods:HPLC techniques was used to detect the dissolution amount and the dissolution velocity of strychnine from the normal and ultra-micro powder of semen strychi. Results:The dissolution velocity of strychnine from the ultra-micro powder was higher than that from the normal powder,but there was no difference in the dissolution amount 4 hours later. Conclusion:The dissolution velocity of strychnine from the ultra-micro powder increased greatly and there was no loss of the principal active.
