Quality Standard Study on Jiangxiang Anwei Soft Capsules

OBJECTIVE To establish the controlling methods for quality standard of jiangxiang Anwei Soft Capsules(Rhizoma Alpiniae Officinari， Rhizoma Zingiberis， Radix Aucklandiae).METHODS Rhizoma Alpiniae Officinari， Rhizoma Zingiberis， Radix Aucklandiae were identified by thin-layer chromatography(TLC). The contents of costunolide and dehydro-costunolide were determined by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) together. RESULTS Consimilitude showed a good linear relationship at the range of 0.103～1.030 μg( r=0.999 5，n=7），the average recovery was 97.27%， RSD was 1.10%;Dehydro-costunolide showed a good linear relationship at the range of 0.126～1.260 μg(r=0.999 6，n=7）， the average recovery was 97.90%，and RSD was 1.05%.CONCLUSION This method is accurate， reliable， and can be used for quality control of Jiangxiang Anwei Soft Capsule.
