麻黃藥材中之麻黃(生、僉)以甲醇抽提4小時後,利用氣相層析儀於Column:1% Corbowax 20 M on Chromssorb W-H.P 80/100 mesh,Detecter: FID之條件下獲得良好的分離效果,其麻黃(生、僉)含量在0.84~2.30%之間,回收率亦達99.2%,用以定量簡捷省時。
A Simple, rapid and raliable gas chromatographic method for determination of ephedrine in Ephedra Herba is described. The condition for gas chromatography were as follows; cloumn: 1% Carbowax 20 M on chromosorb W-H P 80/100, column temperature: 132℃, injection and detector temperature 170℃, detector: FID, carrier gas flow rate: N2 30ml/min. By this method, the contents of ephedrine in 30 marketed samples were from 0.84% to 2.30% and the recovery was 99.2%.
