Simultaneous Quantification of Three Chemical Types Bioactive Compounds in Radix Isatidis and Its Relevant Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms by HPLC-DAD

A simple and rapid high performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) method was developed for simultaneous quantification of three chemical types of bioactive compounds including an alkaloid (epigoitrin), six nucleosides (uracil, cytidine, hypoxanthine, uridine, guanosine and adenosine), and four phenylpropanoids (syringin, clemastanin B, indigoticoside A and isolariciresinol) in Radix Isatidis and its relevant pharmaceutical dosage forms. The developed method was successfully applied to analyze 32 batches of samples with good linearity (R2, 0.9966-0.9999), pr...
