The invention discloses a method for determining content of
guanine in
ganciclovir, which belongs to the technical field of
drug analysis and detection, and adopts a high-performance liquid
chromatography as the detection method. The invention provides a
normal phase detection method, which enables the
guanine to have good peak shapes in a liquid
chromatographic column and being able to be completely separated from
ganciclovir for facilitating quantitative analysis. The method is characterized by comprising the steps of: taking n-
hexane-isopropanol as a mobile phase; adopting
cellulose-
tris (4-methylphenyl
formate)
silica gel as a filler; taking the n-
hexane- isopropanol (80:20) as the mobile phase, wherein the flow rate is 0.8-1.5 ml / min, the
column temperature is 25-35 DEG C, the detection
wavelength is 252 nm and a sample injection quantity is 10 mu L; and waiting for
elution. The method of the invention is simple, reliable and high in sensitivity, has good resolution and reproducibility, is precise and reliable in result, and can be used for controlling the content of
guanine in
ganciclovir.
