| Industry | Application | Process |
|---|---|---|
| Pharmaceutical Industry | Anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing agent | Extracted from the roots of Lithospermum erythrorhizon; purified via solvent extraction, column chromatography, and other methods |
| Cosmetics Industry | Skin care, skin-lightening, and anti-aging | Extracted using ethanol or propylene glycol; formulated into serums or creams |
| Food Additives Industry | Natural colorant | Extracted using ethanol or water; applied for food coloring |
| Agricultural Industry | Insecticide and fungicide | Extracted from plants; formulated into biopesticides |
| Biological Research Industry | Studied for antioxidant and antitumor activity | Pure compound obtained via organic synthesis or natural extraction for experimental use |
| Detection Item | Common Analytical Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Assay (Purified Shikonin Content) | HPLC-UV | Quantifies shikonin isomers by reversed-phase chromatographic separation and UV detection at 520 nm. |
| Related Substances | HPLC-DAD | Identifies and quantifies structurally related impurities using diode array detection for spectral confirmation. |
| Residual Solvents | GC-FID | Measures volatile organic solvents (e.g., methanol, acetone) by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. |
| Heavy Metals | ICP-MS | Determines trace metal contaminants (Pb, Cd, Hg, As) via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry for ultra-trace sensitivity. |
| Loss on Drying | Gravimetric Analysis | Measures volatile content by weight loss after drying at 105 C under vacuum or nitrogen. |
| Residue on Ignition | Sulfated Ash Test | Quantifies inorganic residue after high-temperature incineration followed by sulfuric acid treatment and weighing. |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Determines water by volumetric or coulometric titration using iodine-based redox reaction in anhydrous methanol. |
| Particle Size Distribution | Laser Diffraction | Measures particle size distribution based on light scattering patterns of dispersed sample in liquid medium. |
| pH of Aqueous Suspension | Potentiometric Measurement | Evaluates acidity/basicity using calibrated pH electrode in standardized water suspension. |
| Microbial Limits | Membrane Filtration | Quantifies aerobic bacteria, yeasts, and molds by filtration, membrane transfer to selective agar, and colony enumeration. |
| Sterility | Direct Inoculation | Confirms absence of viable microorganisms by incubating sample in fluid thioglycollate and soybean-casein digest media. |
| Specific Optical Rotation | Polarimetry | Measures chiral purity by determining rotation angle of plane-polarized light passing through solution at specified concentration and wavelength. |
