Abstract:
Objective: To develop a UPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneously determining harpagide, liquiritin, harpagoside, platycodin D, ammonium glycyrrhetate, ophiopogonin D, methylophiopogonanone A, and methylophiopogonanone B in Xuanmai Ganjie Granules (composed with Scrophulariae Radix, Ophiopogonis Radix, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and Platycodonis Radix) from different pharmaceutical companies. Methods: The chromatographic separation was achieved on Phenomenex Kenetix C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm, 5 μm) by using a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid water at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min for gradient elution. Simultaneous monitoring of positive and negative ions and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) scan mode were applied to the quantification of the components in Xuanmai Ganjie Granules; Sample volume was 5 μL. Results: There was good linearity between the absorption peak area and the concentration for harpagide, liquiritin, harpagoside, platycodin D, ammonium glycyrrhetate, ophiopogonin D, methylophiopogonanone A, and methylophiopogonanone B in the ranges of 9-2250, 8-2000, 3.4-850, 96-24000, 12.4-3100, 3.6-1900, 1.7-425, and 1.5-375 ng/mL, respectively. The average recoveries were ranged from 97.2% to 102.8% (RSD ≤ 2.7%). The contents of harpagide, liquiritin, harpagoside, platycodin D, ammonium glycyrrhetate, ophiopogonin D, methylophiopogonanone A, and methylophiopogonanone B in eight batches of samples were in the ranges of 32.8-107.6, 54.8-178.0, 14.6-70.7, 31.2-280.0, 106.4-287.9, 0.1-0.6, 0.01-0.07, and 0.03-0.17 μg/g, respectively. Conclusion: The developed method is simple, effective, and credible for determining the eight components in Xuanmai Ganjie Granules. It provides more helpful information for the comprehensive quality evaluation of Xuanmai Ganjie Granules.
