HPLC fingerprints of water-soluble composition in Fructus schisandrae chinensis / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM: To establish a method of determining the fingerprints of water-soluble composition in Fructus schisandrae chinensis by HPLC. METHODS: Separation was performed on Discovery SB-C18(150 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) analytical column with mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile with gradient elute at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min.The UV detection wavelength was set at 203 nm. RESULTS: Compared with reference peak of schisandrin,8 common peaks on frngerprints of Fructus schisandrae chinensis were indicated by the method with satisfied stability,precision and repeatability. CONCLUSION: There are good similarities among 10 batches of Fructus schisandrae chinensis,and this method is reliable,simple and provides a reference standard for the quality control of Fructus schisandrae chinensis.
