Abstract: Objective To determine the content of sophocarpine, matrine, oxysophocarpine, sophoridine, oxymatrine in Sophora Flavescentis Radix from different areas. Methods Agilent ZORBAX NH2 column (4.6 mm×150 mm, 5 μm) was used with mobile phase of acetonitrile-ethanol-3% phosphate (84∶10∶6), at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The wavelength of detection was 210 nm. Results The linear range of sophocarpine, matrine, oxysophocarpine, sophoridine and oxymatrine were 0.022 88-0.114 4 μg (r=0.999 7), 0.083 2-0.416 0 μg (r=0.999 7), 0.376 2-1.836 0 μg (r=0.999 8), 0.104 4-0.522 μg (r=0.999 2), 0.491 2-2.456 μg (r=0.999 9), respectively. The average recovery were 101.63% (RSD=2.08%), 98.29%(RSD=1.87%), 101.89% (RSD=1.97%), 99.87% (RSD=2.06%), 102.66% (RSD=1.34%), respectively. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid and accurate, and suitable for the quality control of Sophorae Flavescentis Radix.
