Objective: To determine the content of r-schisandrin in Hugan granule by HPLC. Methods: R-μSchisandrin was extracted with n-hexane. The HPLC system consists of Bondapak C18 column
moblile phase of methanol-water(72:28) mixture
with detection at 254nm
flow rate 1ml/min. Results: The content of r-schisandrin was >0.04%. The number of theoretical plate was >2000. The separation parameter was >1.5. No interference peak from the blank test was found. The precision(RSD) was 2.15%. The reproducible test(RSD) was<10%. The mean recovery of 106.06±2.16% for r-schisandrin was obtained. Conclusion: This method is specific
