Abstract:Objective: To establish a method to determine the content of Curcumol in Rhizoma Curcumae.Method: The samples were determined by GC on a HP-5 column(0.32 mm×30 m,0.25 μm),Inlet temperature 200 ℃,FID 250 ℃,flow 1.0 mL·min-1,splitless.Temperature programming started at 60 ℃,holding for 4 min,then increased to 210 ℃ at a rate of 3 ℃·min-1.Result: The calibration curve of curcumol is linear over the range of 40.0-2 000 μg·mL-1,r=0.999 7.The high and low additive recovery were 95.01%(RSD 2.52%),96.46%(RSD 2.86%).Conclusion: This method was accurate and reliable with a good reproducibility,and the procedure of samples pretreatment is simple.
