title: Determination of seven phenolic compounds in Rhizoma Sparganii by RP-HPLC.
abstract: A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of seven phenolic compounds from Rhizoma Sparganii. The samples were separated on a Waters SunFire C18 column with a temperature of 30°C. Gradient elution was applied, using 0.8% acetic acid (solvent A) and methanol (solvent B) with a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, and detection wavelength was 280 nm. The validation of the method included linearity, precision, repeatability, stability and recovery. The calibration curves showed good linear regression (R(2) > 0.9996) within the test range. The developed method indicated good precision and accuracy, with the overall intra-day and inter-day variation at less than 3%. The range of recoveries for the seven analytes was 95.34-100.06% with relative standard deviation < 3.08 %. The established method was successfully applied for the determination of seven phenolic compounds in 12 batches of Rhizoma Sparganii. The study may be useful in the quality evaluation of Rhizoma Sparganii, and can provide technical support for pharmacological and clinical research of related drugs.
