Assay: The formulation contains not less than 5 per cent gallic acid when assayed by the following method. Estimation of gallic acid: Dissolve 10 mg of gallic acid in 100 ml of methanol in a volumetric flask. From this stock solution; prepare standard solutions of 15 to 75 ng / ml by transferring aliquots (1.5 to 7.5 ml) of stock solution to 10 ml volumetric flasks and adjusting the volume to 10 ml with methanol. Apply 10 nl of each standard solution corresponding to 150 ng to 750 ng of gallic acid on a TLC plate. Develop the plate to a distance of 8 cm using toluene : ethyl acetate : formic acid : methanol (3 : 3 : 0.8 : 0.2 ) as mobile phase. After development; dry the plate and scan in TLC scanner at wavelength of 280 nm. Note the area under the curve for peak corresponding to gallic acid and prepare the calibration curve by plotting peak area vs amount of gallic acid. Hydrolyze accurately weighed about 5 g of crushed modaka by refluxing with 50 ml of 2N hydrochloric acid on a water-bath. Filter; add equal amount of water; transfer to a separating funnel and extract with diethyl ether (20 ml x 4). Collect the diethyl ether layer and dry. Dissolve the residue in 25 ml of methanol. Apply 10 nl on a TLC plate and develop; dry and scan the plate as described in the preceding paragraph for calibration curve of gallic acid. Note area under the curve for a peak corresponding to gallic acid. Calculate the amount of gallic acid in the test solution from the calibration curve of gallic acid. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
