- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To establish an HPLC method for simultaneous detemination the contents of rosmarinic acid (phenylpropanoids), luteolin-7-O-β-D-glucuronide and tilianin (flavonoids) in Dracocephalum moldavica L. Extract. METHODS: The samples were separated on Purospher® STARLP RP-18 endcapped column(4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm) by gradient elution with acetonitrile (A)-0.5% formic acid solution(B) (0-28 min, 20% A; 28-55 min, 20%→28% A; 55-80 min, 28%→30% A)as the mobile phase at a flow ratio of 1.0 mL · min-1. The detection wavelength was set at 330 nm and the column temperature was maintained at 35℃. RESULTS: The calibration curves of rosmarinic acid, luteolin-7-O-β-D-glucuronide, tilianin were in good linearity over the ranges of 2.184-21.84 μg · mL-1 (r =0.999 6), 3.14-31.84 μg · mL-1(r =0.999 6), 7.9-39.5 μg · mL-1(r =0.999 5) respectively. The average recoveries were 99.62%, 99.64% and 100.12% with RSD values of 1.27%, 1.05% and 1.09%. CONCLUSION: The method is reliable, simple, and accurate, and can be used for the comprehensive quality control of Dracocephalum moldavica L. extract.
