Abstract:
Objective: To simultaneously determine the contents of five components (amygdalin, paeoniflorin, peimine, astragaloside IV and rutaecarpine) in Fuzheng Pingxiao Capsula by LC-MS. Methods: Chromatographic separation was achieved with gradient elution by Agilent Eclipse plus C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 μm) and an Agilent 1100 Mass Spectrometer system was operated under the SIM mode with electrospray positive ionization (ESI). The mobile phase is acetonitrile-0.1% methanoic acid. Results: The LOQ of amygdalin, paeoniflorin, peimine, astragaloside IV, and rutaecarpine in Fuzheng Pingxiao Capsula were 12.9, 32.2, 1.00, 1.21, and 0.40 ng/mL, and the LOD were 6.46, 6.44, 0.25, 0.61, and 0.16 ng/mL, respectively. Within the linear range, r > 0.999 0. Both intra-day and inter-day precision with RSD was less than 2%. The average recovery rates of the five components were in the range of 98%-102%. Conclusion: This method is fast, sensitive, and reproducible. It could be used to determine amygdalin, paeoniflorin, peimine, astragaloside IV, and rutaecarpine in Fuzheng Pingxiao Capsula under the same chromatogram condition.
