Materials and Methods: The methanol and aqueous extracts of nine herbal slimming products in Turkey were evaluated for analysis of arbutin and hydroquinone using GC-MS method. Results: The retention times of arbutin and hydroquinone were found as 11.32 and 5.44 min, respectively. The linear ranges in this method were 5-500 ng/mL for arbutin and hydroquinone, respectively. The intra-and inter-day precisions, expressed as the relative standard deviation, were less than 1.94 and 2.73%, determined from quality control samples for arbutin and hydroquinone, and accuracy was within 1.13 and 2.56% in terms of relative error, respectively. The limit of detection and quantification were 0.555 and 1.665 ng/mL for arbutin, and 0.031 and 0.093 ng/mL for hydroquinone, respectively. Conclusion: The developed method can be used for routine quality control analysis of arbutin and hydroquinone in different herbal slimming products. © Turk J Pharm Sci, Published by Galenos Publishing House.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Turkish Pharmacists Association</dc:publisher><dc:date>2018</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/14419</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.4274/tjps.38258</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>1304-530X</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Turkish Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/14419</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
