Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo propose an algorithm of the similarity between UV-spectra for controlling the quality of Chinese medical injection.
METHODThe similarity is calculated base on the data of two UV-spectrum curves, thus the sample quality is evaluated according to the average value of the similarity of the UV-spectra between sample with each of standard samples; the proposed algorithm of the similarity is compared with cosine of vectorial angle and relative coefficient; the proposed method for quality evaluation of traditional Chinese injection is discussed with the method according to the chromatographic fingerprint similarity.
RESULTThe calculated similarity with the proposed method can be sensitive to show the difference between UV-spectra. This proposed method for quality evaluation was applied for assessing quality of 14 batches of Xiangdan injection and the results well coincident with sample quality.
CONCLUSIONThe proposed method can be used to evaluate the quality of the Chinese medical injection according to the similarity of two UV-spectrum curves.
