Objective:
To optimize the solid-phase extraction method by comparison of the extraction recovery of ginsenoside Re plasma samples.
Method:
After extracted by different solid-phase cartridges with water, acetonitrile, and different content methanol elution, the plasma samples were analyzed on an Zorbax SB-C18 column with acetonitrile-water gradient elution. From the recovery achieved, the best solid phase cartridge was found.
Result:
This method consists of using 40% methanol as the wash solvent, and 80% methanol for the elution. Among the three kinds of solid-phase being tested, Waters Oasis HLB cartridge was found to be the best one.
Conclusion:
The average extraction recovery of the Waters Oasis HLB cartridges was between 103%-113%, it can be used in the analysis of ginsenoside Re in plasma samples.
