OBJECTIVE:To improve the method for the determination of content and related substances of Molsidomine tablet. METHODS: HPLC was adopted to determine the content and related substances, HPLC-MS was adopted for the qualitative degradation impurities in destruction test. The column was Waters Symmetry-C18 with mobile phase of 0.05% formic acid - methanol (gradient elution) at a flow rate 1.0 ml/min and 0.2 ml/min (respectively for content and related substances determination, mass spectrometry), the detection wavelength was 210 nm, column temperature was 30 ℃, the injection volume was 20 μl and 5 μl (respectively for content and related substances determination, mass spectrometry). RESULTS:Each component was well separated under chromatographic conditions; degradation impurities were confirmed; the linear range of molsidomine was 4. 0-28.0 μg/ml (r=0.999 7); RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 1%; recovery was 97.74%-100.70% (RSD=0.49%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS: The method is simple, accurate with good specific and high precision, and can improve the quality control of Molsidomine tablet.
