Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo determine the content of 7 anthraquinones in Semen Cassiae.
METHODA HPLC method was developed, with Inertsil ODS-3 column, acetonitrile and 0.1% H3PO4 solution as mobile phases in gradient elution. The detection wavelength wasset at 278 nm, and the flow rate was 0.8 mL x min(-1).
RESULTRecoveries of all 7 anthraquinones were between 95%-105%. The content of the anthraquinones in crude drug produced in different habitation were different.
CONCLUSIONThe method is convenient and accurate, which provides the foundation for the research of Semen Cassiae.
