Development and validation of an HPLC-PDA method for the determination of myrsinoic acid B in the extracts of Rapanea ferruginea Mez
2011
Abstract New, simple, rapid and precise HPLC-PDA method has been developed and validated for quantification of biomarker myrsinoic acid B in stem bark extracts of Rapanea ferruginea Mez. The method employs a Phenomenex C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., 5 μm) with acetonitrile:methanol:water (pH 2.6 with phosphoric acid) at 48:30:22 as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 0.7 mL min −1 and photo diode array (PDA) detection at 270 nm. The validation data show that the method is specific, accurate, precise and robust. The method was linear, over a range of 5–100.0 μg mL −1 , with a limit of detection of 0.369 μg mL −1 and limit of quantification of 1.233 μg mL −1 . The method has also shown consistent recoveries (average of 101.3% and 0.12% RSD) of the biomarker, with low intra and inter-day relative standard deviation (1.26% and 1.62%, respectively). The evaluated hydroethanolic extract and dry extract presented MAB values of 63.53 and 36.07 mg g −1 , respectively.
