Abstract:
AimTo establish an HPLC-ELSD method for the quantification of pedunculoside, ziyuglycoside I and rutundic acid, in the leaves of
Ilex purpurea Hassk. MethodsBy optimizing the chromatographic conditions of HPLC and the parameters of ELSD to study the methodology. Column: Allsphere ODS-2 (250 mm×4.6 mm ID, 5 μm), mobile phase: methanol-water (59∶41), flow rate: 1.0 mL·min
-1, drift tube temperature: 59 ℃, gas flow rate: 2.38 L·min
-1. ResultsThe calibration curves were linear in the range of 2.56-25.60 μg for pedunculoside, 1.64-16.40 μg for ziyuglycoside I and 3.74-37.40 μg for rutundic acid. The average recovery of pedunculoside was 96.3%, RSD 1.59% (
n=5), ziyuglycoside I 97.3%, RSD 3.82% (
n=5), rutundic acid 97.7%, RSD 2.11% (
n=5). All of RSDs of the precision were less than 4% (
n=6), and the reproduciblities less than 5% (
n=6). ConclusionThe method is simple, accurate, effective and feasible. It can be used for the determination of the contents of pedunculoside, ziyuglycoside I and rutundic acid in leaf of
Ilex purpurea Hassk.
