Methods The condition for derivation was optimized, based on which the free formaldehyde in 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine(DNPH)-derived influenza virus split vaccine was determined by revere HPLC. TC-C18 column(250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) was served, using acetonitrile-water(45 ∶ 55) as mobile phase. The sample load, flow rate, detection wavelength and column temperature were 10 μl, 1. 0 ml / min, 360 nm and35 ℃ respectively. The wavelength for detection of DNPH derivative was determined, based on which the developed method was verified for linearity, accuracy, precision, stability and reproducibility, and determined for quantitative and detection limits. Four batches of influenza virus split vaccine from various manufacturers were determined for trace formaldehyde by the method, of which two batches were derived at first, and the other two batches were determined directly. Results The optimal derivation solution, derivation temperature and reaction time were 5 mol / L phosphoric acid, 20 ℃ and 30 min respectively. The detection wavelength for DNPH derivative was 360 nm. The formaldehyde concentration within a range of 10. 02 ~ 250. 5 ng / ml showed good linear relationship to the peak area(r = 0. 999 8).The mean recovery rate of six samples of DNPH derivatives was 99. 93%, with a RSD of 0. 34%. The mean peak area of DNPH derivative samples loaded for six times was 724. 15, with a RSD of 0. 74%. The mean content of trace formaldehyde in six tests at various time points was 8. 04 μg / ml, with a RSD of 0. 98%, which was stable within 24 h. However, the mean content of trace formaldehyde in six samples of the same batch was 8. 06 μg / ml, with a RSD of 0. 68%. The minimum detection limit of trace formaldehyde was 0. 01 μg / ml, while the quantitative limit was 0. 03 μg / ml. All the contents of trace formaldehyde in four batches of influenza virus split vaccine were less than the standard of 50 μg / ml in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(Volume Ⅲ, 2010 edition). Conclusion The developed reverse HPLC method was simple,effective and sensitive, which was suitable for determination of free trace formaldehyde in influenza virus split vaccine.
