Determination of catechine by HPLC 1) Reagents a.Methanol (HPLC) b.Acetic acid (A.R) c.DMF(A.R) d. Nanopure water
2) Apparatus HPLC (Shimadzu) Analytical balance (1/10000) Ultrasonic cleaner 0.45μm PTFE filter 50ml volumetric flask Screw cap vials
3) HPLC condition Column: Hypersil ODS C18 5μm , 4.6×200mm Detector: UV 278nm Mobile Phase: A=water B= DMF:MeOH:HAC(40:2:1) Gradient: Time(min) 0 2 10 12 22 26 27 30 %A 84 84 79 79 68 68 84 stop %B 16 16 21 21 32 32 16 Flow Rate: 1.1ml/min Injection: 10μl
4) Procedure Samples Preparation Accurately weigh 30mg extraction into 50ml volumetric flask. Add nanopoure water to volume and sonicate to mix, filter through a 0.45μm PTFE filter into a screw cap vial and proceed with the analysis.
Standard preparation /calibration Prepare an mixed standard solution (approximately 0.6mg/ml in water) using a commercial reference standard of catechine,Sonicate for about 10 minutes and transfer to screw-cap vials and can be stored in the refrigeration.
