Empower System Suitability software. The curves for aloins
A and B and aloe-emodin had an R of >0.998. Tailing factors
for the aloin A and B and aloe-emodin peaks were <2.0. The
theoretical plates of the peaks for aloins A and B and aloe-
emodin were >10000 (Table 19).
LOD
The LOD of the method was determined by measuring S/N
from a spiked placebo sample from herbal aloe concentrate
mango at 10 ppb level.
The LOD met acceptance criteria of not more than 10 ppb.
The S/N for aloins A and B and aloe-emodin were 11.8, 9.8, and
7.8, respectively. The LOD of this method was 10 ppb. (This
approach was very conservative because a typical LOD level
requires a S/N of about 3.)
