Abstract:
Objective: To establish a high performance liquid chromatography-charged aerosol detector (HPLC-CAD) method in order to obtain fingerprint profile and achieve the amount of isomer, oleanolic acid, and ursolic acid from Verbena officinalis. Methods: The method was developed by a C30 (150 mm × 2.1 mm, 3 μm) column and a linear gradient elution. Acenitrile-0.2% acetic acid was used as mobile phase. The flow rate was 0.3 mL/min; The injection volume was 10 μL and the column temperature was maintained at 20 ℃. Detector was Corona Ultra CAD with 40 oC of nebulization temperature. Results: Seventeen common peaks were observed from the fingerprint profiles of five different area samples. The relative standard divisions (RSDs) of retention time were less than 0.35%. The relative peak areas of the common peaks were in the range of 3.3%-44.0%. The contents of oleanolic acid were ranging from 0.097% to 0.136%, the contents of ursolic acid were ranging from 0.257% to 0.478%, the total contents were ranging from 0.354% to 0.478%. Conclusion: The fingerprint and simultaneous determination of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid in V. officinalis is firstly studied by HPLC-CAD. This method is simple and with good repeatability, which can be used for the quality control of V. officinalis.
