Identification of multiple components in Guanxinning injection using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry and reversed-phase liquid chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry

An approach for the identification of multiple components in traditional Chinese medicine injections (TCMIs) using a combination of hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) and reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) was developed for the quality control of Guanxinning injection (GXNI), a widely used TCMI, composed of Salvia miltiorrhiza and Ligusticum Chuanxiong. A total of 50...
