Abstract:
Objective: To establish the fingerprint of Plantaginis Semen and to determine the two index contents of geniposidic acid and verbascoside. Methods: The chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile-0.5% acetic acid aqueous solution in gradient elution. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, and the detection wave length was 254 nm. Similarity evaluation system was used in data analysis. Results: The HPLC fingerprint of Plantaginis Semen showed 13 characteristic peaks with high similarity, and contents of geniposidic acid and verbascoside were 0.794 3% and 0.664 2%, respectively. Conclusion: The method that combining the determination of index contents with fingerprint analysis is timesaving and could be used for the quality control of Plantaginis Semen. It could provide a reference for the further research on the quality control of formular granule with Plantaginis Semen extracts.
