Study of HPLC-DAD characteristic chromatogram of Pyrrosia leaf formula granules

Abstract

The detection method of characteristic chromatogram of Pyrrosia leaf Formula granules by HPLC-DAD is established. The analysis is performed on a Inertsil ODS-2 C18 column(4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm) with a gradient mobile phase of methanol-0.5% formic acid at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength is 265 nm, the column temperature is 30 ℃, and the injection is 10 μL. The Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of TCM (Version 2012A) is used for the 10 batches of Pyrrosia leaf formula granules quality assessment, and cluster analysis is obtained based on characteristic peaks in detected samples. Two peaks are confirmed by comparison with the chromatograms of the standard substances. Nine characteristic peaks are found through multipoint revise and the similarity evaluation system. Similarities of 10 batches of Pyrrosia leaf formula granules are all more than 0.85 and the analyzed samples are geographically classified into three classes. The method has good characteristics and specificity of accuracy, reliability, and repeatability, and can be used for the quality control of Pyrrosia leaf formula granules.
