Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the separation and determination of 18 alpha-glycyrrhetinic acid and 18 beta-glycyrrhetinic acid has been developed. Indomethacin was used as an internal standard. The drugs were separated on a reversed-phase column and detected by UV detection at a wavelength of 254 nm. Methanol-water-perchloric acid-ammonia (80:20:0.4:0.4, v/v) was used as the mobile phase at pH of 7.0-7.5. The detection limit of both compounds was 0.1 microgram/ml in rat plasma. The method was applied to pharmacokinetic studies of glycyrrhetinic acids in rats. The results suggest that the pharmacokinetics appeared to be non-linear in nature.
