Abstract
A simple and rapid method, based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for simultaneous determination of nine lignans, including (-)-(7R,8R)-machilin D (Wang, C., Wang, P., Chen, X., Wang, W., Jin, Y.; Saururus chinensis (Lour.)

The parameters of MSPD were optimized to be that 0.2 g of sample, blended with 0.4 g silica gel, and eluted with 5 mL of methanol. The separation was carried out on a C18 column with acidified aqueous acetonitrile gradients. The established method was fully validated in terms of linearity (r2 ≥ 0.9994), sensitivity, precision (RSD ≤ 3.18%), repeatability (RSD ≤ 3.02%) as well as recovery (93.49-103.52%), and subsequently applied to six samples of S. chinensis from different areas. The MSPD extraction promoted higher extraction yields of nine lignans, lower solvent sample and solvent consumption.
