J Sep Sci. 2005 Nov;28(16):2061-6. | Simultaneous determination of seven triterpenoids and triterpenoid saponins in Folium llicis Purpureae by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with evaporative light scattering detection.[Pubmed: 16318200] | METHODS AND RESULTS:
A new HPLC coupled with evaporative light scattering detection method was established for the simultaneous determination of seven triterpenoids and triterpenoid saponins in Folium Ilicis Purpureae traditional Chinese medicinal herb derived from the leaf of Ilex purpurea, namely, 3-omicron-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->2)-beta-D-[6-omicron-methyl-glucuronopyranosyl]-28-omicron-beta-D-glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid (SQ-1), pedunculoside (SQ-2), 23-hydroxytormentic acid 28-omicron-beta-D-glucopyranoside (SQ-3), 23-hydroxytormentic acid (SQ-4), Rutundic acid (SQ-5), ilexoside B (SQ-6), and ursolic acid (SQ-7). The optimal chromatographic conditions were achieved on a C18 column with a linear gradient elution of mobile phase A: deionized water-isopropyl alcohol-THF-acetic acid (90:10:6:1, v/v) and B: methanol-isopropyl alcohol-THF-acetic acid (90:10:6:1, v/v) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min; temperature for drift tube was set at 98degreesC and nitrogen flow rate was 2.8 L/min. All calibration curves of the seven compounds showed good linear regression (r2 > 0.995) within test ranges. The developed method has good repeatability for quantitation of all analytes interested with overall intraday and interday variation of less than 4.1%. The LOD (S/N = 3) and LOQ (S/N = 10) were less than 0.13 and 0.26 microg/mL, respectively, for all analytes.
CONCLUSIONS:
The established method was successfully used to evaluate the quality of Folium Ilicis Purpureae samples of different collections. |
