Insamyangpye–tang (ISYPT) is a traditional medicinal formula comprised of 13 herbs and has been used in East Asia to treat lung-related diseases. However, to our knowledge, no method of analysis for its quality control has been reported. In this study, a method of analysis for quality control of ISYPT was developed using high-performance liquid chromatography. Chromatographic separation, analysis, and assay verification were performed with a distilled water–acetonitrile mobile phase system, both containing 0.1% (v/v) trifluoroacetic acid, and a Gemini C18 analytical column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 mm) using authentic standards for eight marker compounds. These marker constituents were detected simultaneously at 0.09–5.95 mg/g. The analysis method developed can be used for basic quality control of ISYPT.

Shilajit has a longstanding use as an anti-aging and memory enhancing drug. It is known to have excellent anti-bacterial effects and is believed to be effective for cognitive enhancement, but is difficult to standardize because of the lack of quality control standards. This study, for the first time, proposes a quality control standard using a simultaneous analytical method for the drug’s multi-compound content using high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) as an aid for the internationalization of Mongolian Shilajit. Phenolic compounds 1-6 were isolated from Mongolian Shilajit extract using bioassay-guided isolation, and the isolated compounds were evaluated for cognitive-related anti-Alzheimer’s disease (AD) activities using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical-scavenging, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), β-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), and advanced glycation end-product (AGE) formation assays. The isolated compounds showed good effects for each activity. In addition, the isolated compounds were successfully quantified using a validated quantitative HPLC analysis method. As a result, the isolated compounds were suggested as standard marker compounds for Mongolian Shilajit. Also, we proved that the original material of Mongolian Shilajit is a lichen named Xanthoparmelia somloensis (Gyel.) Hale using HPLC-UV, ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization/hybrid linear trap-quadruple-orbitrap-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI/LTQ-HRMS).

Amoxicillin, substance-related to semisynthetic penicillin, has been widely used to treat infections caused by various microorganisms, however reports of suitable methods for the quantitative determination and indicative of the stability of formulations containing this substance are rare. Due to lack of studies on the forced degradation of the substance and on the need to monitor the quality of this type of formulation was proposed and validated a method for the determination of amoxicillin content in capsules by high-performance liquid chromatography - HPLC for the quality control of amoxicillin capsules, allowing the provision of useful information about the characteristics of this type of formulation and its stability. The method was validated for parameters of linearity, specificity, accuracy, precision, and robustness

The aim of the study was to analyze phenolic acids in Lithuanian propolis and to compare it with the composition of propolis in neighboring countries (Latvia and Poland) according to the predominant flora in the collecting places. The study was also aimed at the evaluation of the effect of the layer thickness (mm) of the harvested propolis on the quality of the raw material in determining the amount of phenolic acids. Materials and methods. The object of the study was propolis collected in Lithuania, Poland, and Latvia in late July of 2006 and 2007. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of phenolic acids was performed using the high-performance liquid chromatography technique (HPLC). Results. The results of the study showed that the quantitative and qualitative composition of phenolic acids in propolis depended on the plants from which the bees in the area collected substances for the raw material of propolis. The predominant phenolic acids were determined to be ferulic and coumaric acids, and they may be among the main indicators of quality in the standardization of the raw material and preparations of propolis. Conclusion. We created an HPLC-based analysis method for the identification and quantification of phenolic acids in propolis. The variety of phenolic acids in propolis depends on the vegetation predominating in the harvesting area. Studies have shown that the highest amount of phenolic acids is observed in propolis harvested in areas characterized by the predominance of deciduous trees and meadows. Results have also shown that ferulic and coumaric acids are the predominant phenolic acids in propolis. The thickness of the layer of the collected propolis in the hive also influences its chemical composition.
