The invention relates to the technical field of
drug analysis and detection, in particular to a rhizoma alismatis
content determination method which comprises the following steps: preparing a
clobetasol propionate reference substance solution; preparing a mixed reference substance solution, namely mixing the 23-acetyl alisol C reference substance solution, the alisol B reference substance solution, the 23-acetyl alisol B reference substance solution and the
clobetasol propionate reference substance solution; preparing a
test solution: mixing a rhizoma alismatis sample with the
clobetasol propionate reference substance solution; and
quantitative determination: injecting the
test solution and the mixed reference solution into a high performance liquid chromatograph, determining the nature by adopting an
ultraviolet spectrogram, and determining and calculating the contents of 23-acetyl alisol C, alisol B and 23-acetyl alisol B in the
test solution. According to the present invention, the chemical
drug clobetasol propionate with characteristics of low price, easy obtaining and stable property is adopted as the alternative reference substance, such that the problems of transportation, storage, use and low cost of the existing determination method using 23-acetyl alisol C, 23-acetyl alisol B and alisol B as the reference substances are avoided.
