Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of shikonin, acetylshikonin and β, β-dimethylacrylshikonin in Arnebia euchroma. METHODS: RP-HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Kromasil 100-5 C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0. 1% formic acid solution (80: 20, V/V) at the flow rate of 1. 0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 516 nm, column temperature was 25 ℃, and sample size was 10 μL. RESULTS: The linear ranges of shikonin, acetylshikonin and β, β-dimethylacrylshikonin were 0. 404-10. 100 μg/mL(r=0. 999 8), 5. 350-107. 000 μg/mL(r=0. 999 6), 2. 035-40. 700 μg/mL(r=0. 999 8), respectively. The limit of quantitation was 0. 40, 2. 91, 1. 34 μg/mL, and the limit of detection was 0. 12, 0. 87, 0. 40 μg/mL. RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2. 0% (n=6). The recovery rate were 99. 12%-104. 18% (RSD=1. 85%, n=6), 96. 51%-100. 21% (RSD=1. 43%, n=6), 98. 11%-102. 51% (RSD=1. 42%, n=6), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The method is simple, precise, stable and reproducible. It can be used for simultaneous determination of shikonin, acetylshikonin and β, β-dimethylacrylshikonin in A. euchroma.
