OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of lithospermic acid and rosmarinic acid in Guanxin danshen capsule. METHODS: UPLC was performed on the column of ACQUITY UPLC-BEH C18 with mobile phase of 0.1% formic acid-methanol solution (gradient elution) at a flow rate of 0.3 ml/min, detection wavelength was 280 nm, column temperature was 30 ℃, and the injection volume was 5 μl. RESULTS: The linear range was 0.019-0.76 mg/ml for lithospermic acid (r=0.999 9) and 0.005-0.2 mg/ml for rosmarinic acid (r=0.999 7); RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2%; recoveries were 97.34%-101.24%(RSD=1.57%,n=6) and 98.30%-100.39%(RSD=0.86%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS: The method is simple, accurate and reproducible, and can be used for the contents determination of lithospermic acid and rosmarinic acid in Guanxin danshen capsule.
