Separation and determination of the effective components in the alabastrum of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl. by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography.
A rapid and efficient micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) method was developed to analyze edgeworoside C (1), kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (2) and rutin (3) in the alabastrum of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl. for the first time. The factors that affect the separation were studied, such as the concentrations of the buffer, SDS, and organic modifier, the apparent pH, the applied voltage and temperature. The analytes were well separated within 15 min with an electrolyte containing 25 mM Na(2)B(4)O(7), 30 mM NaH(2)PO(4), 60mM SDS and 15% acetonitrile (pH(*) 9.1) at 25 kV and 15 degrees C. The correlation coefficients between the peak areas of analytes and the corresponding concentrations were 0.9976-0.9981 under the optimum conditions. The relative standard deviations (R.S.D.) of the migration time and peak area were in the range 0.6-1.7 and 1.9-5.3%, respectively. The contents of analytes in E. chrysantha Lindl. collected from the different places were successfully determined with the recoveries ranging from 95.9 to 104.3%. And, the results demonstrated that there was significant difference between the two real samples.
