Objective: A study was aimed to estimate guggulsterone-Z (GZ) in Gokshuradi Guggulu (GG).Methods: An analytical method was developed and validated using Waters Alliance high-performance liquid chromatography system (Empower software), equipped with photodiode array detector. Separation was achieved using Phenomenex, C-18 (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μ) column. Mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile:water (70:30,v/v). Flow rate was set to 1 ml/min and detection was performed at 251 nm.Results and Discussion: Validation parameters such as linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection, limit of quantification, and robustness were performed. Amount of GZ was estimated using linearity equation.Conclusion: GG was found to contain 0.815±0.03 g% w/w GZ. Validated method may be used as one of the parameters to standardize the formulation.

Cheongsangbangpung-tang (CSBPT) is a traditional herbal medicine that has been used in many regions of Asia, including Korea, China, and Japan, for the treatment of purulent inflammation and eczema on the face. In this study, a method for the simultaneous analysis of 18 marker components, geniposide (1), coptisine chloride (2), prim-O-glucosylcimifugin (3), berberine chloride (4), liquiritin apioside (5), liquiritin (6), ferulic acid (7), narirutin (8), 5-O-methylvisammisoide (9), hesperidin (10), arctigenin (11), baicalin (12), oxypeucedanin hydrate (13), wogonoside (14), baicalein (15), arctiin (16), glycyrrhizin (17), and pulegone (18), was developed for quality control of CSBPT. The novel approach, which is based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation coupled with photodiode array detection, was verified by the assessment of linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, accuracy, recovery, and precision. Analysis of CSBPT by using the established assay revealed that compounds 1–18 were present in concentrations of 0.27–18.31 mg/g.

A depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) has been observed in pathological conditions and in aging. Measuring GSH in tissues using mouse models is an excellent way to assess GSH depletion and the potential therapeutic efficacy of drugs used to maintain and/or restore cellular redox potential. A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of GSH and cysteine (Cys) in mouse organs was validated according to USA and European standards. The method was based on separation coupled with ultraviolet detection and precolumn derivatization with 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The required validation parameters, that are, selectivity, linearity, lower limit of quantification, precision, accuracy, recovery, and stability, were studied for spleen, lymph nodes, pancreas, and brain. The results showed that the lower limits of quantification were 0.313 μM and 1.25 μM for Cys and GSH, respectively. Intraday and interday precisions were less than 11% and 14%, respectively, for both compounds. The mean extraction recoveries of Cys and GSH from all organs were more than 93% and 86%, respectively. Moreover, the stability of both analytes during sample preparation and storage was demonstrated. The method was accurate, reliable, consistent, and reproducible and it was useful to determine Cys and GSH in the organs of different mouse strains.
