Abstract:
Objective: The absolute bioavailability of the preparation of Chuanxiong Radix components in rats was simultaneously studied by two methods of area under absorbance-wavelength curve (AUAWC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which would confirm the feasibility that AUAWC could be used to determine the absolute bioavailability of components of Chinese materia medica (CMM). Methods: Based on the random two-way cross-over design, 60 SD rats were given the injection of Chuanxiong Radix components by iv and the same amount of drug suspension of the tablet of Chuanxiong Radix components by ig, respectively. Blood samples were collected at various time points after the administration. Plasma concentration of the total components, sodium ferulate, and ligustrazine hydrochloride of the two preparations of Chuanxiong Radix components in rats was measured by AUAWC combined with HPLC. Pharmacokinetic parameters and absolute bioavailability were calculated by DAS 2.0 program and the data obtained by the two methods were compared. Results: After ig administration, AUC0-∞ of total components was (77.218±13.492) mg·min/L by AUAWC and AUC0-∞ of total component was (169.775±18.252) mg∙min/L for iv injection. The absolute bioavailability of tablet of ligustrazine hydrochloride were (69.134±4.853) and (16.422±2.584) mg∙min/L, respectively by HPLC. As for iv injection, AUC0-∞ of sodium ferulate and ligustrazine hydrochloride were (155.244±28.994) and (36.754±6.645) mg∙min/L, respectively. The absolute bioavailabilities of ig administration were 44.53% and 44.68%, respectively. The data obtained by AUAWC were similar to by HPLC. Conclusion: The method of AUAWC can be used to determine the absolute bioavailability on the mixed drugs in the tablet of Chuanxiong Radix components, which will be helpful to solve the problem that the total and individual drugs of the preparation can be coanalyzed together under the combination method of HPLC. It will provide better enlightenment to study the absolute bioavailability of the mixed drugs from Western compound chemicals or complex components in CMM.
