Objective:
To establish a RP-HPLC method for determination of the content of ginsenoside Rg1 in the rabbits aqueous humor, blood and ocular tissues, which were given intragastric administration with the co-xueshuantong soft capsules. The drug concentration in rabbits at different times after oral administration has been determined and the pharmacokinetics characteristics has been researched.
Method:
The compound xueshuantong soft capsules were administrated to the healthy New Zealand rabbits by gavage (10 mg x kg(-1) per rabbit). The concentration of Ginseng Rg1 in aqueous humor, blood and ocular tissues at different time was determined by RP-HPLC.
Result:
RP-HPLC can be established for the determination of ginsenoside Rg1 in the rabbits aqueous humor, blood, ocular tissue. The calibration of curves was linear within the range of 7.60-152.0 mg x L(-1) (r = 0.999 6) for ginsenoside Rg1 in aqueous humor and the calibration of curves were linear within the range of 10.35-103, 50 mg x L(-1) (r = 0.999 8) for ginsenoside Rg1 in blood. Determination of the recovery rate to meet the requirements.
Conclusion:
The ginsenosides Rg1 could transmit the blood-ocular barrier into the eyes and reach a certain concentration. The research provides a theoretical and experimental basis for the systemic administration of compound Xueshuantong to treat eye diseases.
