OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the contents determination of phospholipid and γ-linolenic acid in Com-pound linolenic acid soft capsule. METHODS:HPLC was conducted to determine the content of soybean lecithin;the column was Agilent TC-C18 with mobile phase of methanol-water(84:16,V/V)at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 219 nm,the column temperature was 30 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μl.Gas chromatography was conducted to determine the content of γ-linolenic acid in the preparation;the column was DB WAX,injector temperature was 210 ℃ by temperature pro-grammed,carrier gas was helium at a flow rate of 1 ml/min by split injection(split ratio of 1:30),and the injection volume was 0.02μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 4.64-16.24μg/ml for phospholipid(r=0.999 6)and 0.093 44-0.327 04μg/ml forγ-linole-nic acid methy ester(r=0.999 6);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 3%;recoveries were 97.44%-99.36%(RSD=0.93%,n=6) and 97.22%-99.07%(RSD=1.01%,n=6),respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,stable with good separation,and can be use for the contents determination of phospholipid and γ-linolenic acid in Com-pound linolenic acid soft capsule.

30nm) accounted for 3.5% of these contacts. The mean maximum diameter of the vesicles was 49.4 nm, the volume density was 0.023 and profile density was 36. The distribution of the vesicles was as following: 29.1% opened onto or touched the abluminal membrane, 44,9% without visible connection to either surfaces, 26% opened onto or touched the luminal membrane. It was concluded that the mechanism of lymph formation in the stomach seems to be different from that of those organs such as heart, liver, kidney and thyroid. The present study suggested that the intercellular pathway may act as the primary route for lymph formation and macromolecule transportation, and the intracytoplasmic vesicular system may also play certain role in the transport of macromolecules.
