Предложена методика определения арбутина в листьях толокнянки. В качестве метода определения выбран современный, достаточно чувствительный, эффективный метод ВЭЖХ/МС. Подобраны условия, оценены основные метрологические характеристики. Показана высокая эффективность и перспективность разработанной методики, которая может быть рекомендована для определения содержания арбутина в листьях толокнянки в качестве альтернативны существующей фармакопейной титриметрической методике.
In the article the arbutin determination procedure in the bearberry's leaves is offered. As the method of determination modern, sufficciently sensitive, and effective method HPLC/MS was chosen. The conditions were selected, the main metrological characteristics were estimated. Mass-spectrometric conditions for determination of arbutin at mode multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) were internal standard (phenolphalein), fragmentor's voltage, energy of collision cell, precursor ion, product ion, drying gas temperature - 320°C, pressure gas of nebulaizer - 40 psi, drying gas rate - 10 l/min, capillar's voltage - 4 kV. Conditions of elution were selected: column Protecol C18 HPH125 (250x4,6 mm, 5 pm), gradient, elution rate. Thereby, the procedure of quantitative determination of arbutin in the bearberry's leaves with HPLC/MS was devised. The basic metrological characterisctics of the developed procedure were estimated. It has been shown that HPLC/MS and the developed procedure have high efficiency and prospects and can be recommended for arbutin content determination in medicinal raw plants.
