Objective: To establish a method for simultaneous determination of 17 amino acids in raw and processed Bupleuri Radix. Method: HPLC analysis was performed after derivatization by using phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC) as a derivative reagent.Samples were analyzed on Prevail C18 column with gradient elution of acetonitrile-water (4: 1) and sodium acetate buffer solution (adjusted to pH 6.5)-acetonitrile (97: 3)
detection wavelength was 254 nm. Result: Seventeen amino acids in Bupleuri Radix could be separated well in 32 min.The average recovery was between 93.4%-107.1% with RSD of 1.8%-3.9%. Conclusion: Compared with other pre-column derivatization method for determination of the content of amino acid
this method is reliable with good accuracy and repeatability
which is useful for determination of amino acids in raw and processed Bupleuri Radix.
