OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the contents determination of dipsacoside B, luteolin and apigenin in Zang medicine Lamiophlomis rotata. METHODS: HPLC was performed on the column of Diamonds C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid solution (gradient elution) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min, detection wavelength was 238 nm for dipsacoside B, 348 nm for luteolin and apigenin, column temperature was 25 ℃, and injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS: The linear range was 3.08-308 μg/ml for dipsacoside B (r=0.999 8), 3.72-372 μg/ml for luteolin (r=0.999 9)and 2.92-292 μg/ml for apigenin(r=0.999 9); RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 3.0%; recoveries were 95.38%-103.15% (RSD=1.85%,n=9), 96.05%-102.66%(RSD=2.07%,n=9) and 95.49%-103.59%(RSD=2.18%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS: The method is simple with good precision, stability and reproducibility, and can be used for the simultaneous determination of dipsacoside B, luteolin and apigenin in Zang medicine L. rotata.
