ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Disporum cantoniense. Methods HPLC analysis was performed on Agilent Zorbax SB-C18 chromatographic column ( 250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) with the mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.05% phosphoric acid in gradient mode.The flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1, the detection wavelength was 256 nm and the column temperature was 30 ℃. Results The HPLC fingerprint of 15 batches of Disporum cantoniense was established. Thirteen common peaks in the fingerprint were demarcated, four of which were identified by reference substances. Chemical pattern recognition of fingerprint was performed by hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis. Conclusion The method is simple, accurate and has a good repeatability, and can be used for quality control of Disporum cantoniense.
ABSTRACT
The aim of the paper was to develop a HPLC method for the quality control of Periploca forrestii Schltr. The 18 samples were analyzed on a Hypersil C18 column. The mobile phase was methanol-water (33:67) and the flow rate was 1 mL x min(-1). The detection wavelength was at 370 nm and column temperature was 25 degrees C. The linear relationship was good (r = 0.999 9) in the range of 0.204 4-2.044 microg for quercetin-3-O-alpha-L-arabinopyranoside. The average recovery was 97.78% (RSD 0.8%, n = 9). The contents of 18 samples varied from 0.171% to 0.264%. The method showed high precision, good repeatability and stability, so it can be used to assess the quality of P. forrestii.
