Abstract:
Objective HPLC method was used to determine strychnine and brucine in the decoction of Semen Strychni and its processed products of Jiangxi methods and innovated methods.Methods SiO2 was used as the stationary phase,n-hexane∶dichloromethane∶methanol∶ammonia(47.5∶47.5∶5∶0.35) as the mobile phase,with detection wavelength at 254 nm.Result The contents of strychnine and brucine in the processed products of Jiangxi methods and innovated methods were low.The content of that in acetic acid-soaked product scalded with hot sand was the lowest.Conclusion Semen Strychni and its processed products of Jiangxi methods and innovated methods can lower the toxicity and improve the safety of clinical use.
