- Abstract: This experiment focused on the effect of salvianolic acid B's nasal absorption characteristics in rats. In the study, HPLC determination of salvianolic acid B(SalB) in perfusion liquid was established to examine the SalB nasal irritation in different pH buffers and stability in nasal perfusion solution, and systematically study in vivo nasal absorption characteristics of SalB. Improved rats were adopted to establish the in situ nasal perfusion model to measure the release of total protein and lactate dehydrogenase in perfusion fluid, quantitatively evaluate the nasal irritation and the stability in perfusion liquid of pH 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 SalB phosphate buffer, compare the absorption of SalB in pH 5.0 buffer solution with low, medium and high concentrations (200, 400, 800 mg•L⁻¹). According to the results, nasal irritation: pH 4.0>pH 5.0>pH 6.0, RSD of pH 6.0 SalB buffer solution within 24 h was 3.1%, stability was poor. PH 5.0 SalB buffer solution had a smaller irritation and good stability. According to the nose perfusion test in rats, the nasal absorption of SalB fitted the first-order process and could be considered as passive absorption based on concentration gradient. SalB buffer solution of pH 5.0 had also a small nasal irritation and good stability, with a good absorption in rat nasal perfusion test, which therefore had a certain significance for the development of SalB nasal formulation.
