ABSTRACT
OBJE CTIVE To establish the finger prints for Yinhuang solution for inhalation and determine the contents of neochlorogenic acid ，chlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid simultaneously. METHODS Using baicalin as reference ，the fingerprints of Yinhuang solution for inhalation were established by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. Relative correction factors of neochlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid were calculated by slope correction method ，using chlorogenic acid as reference ；the contents of them were calculated according to relative correction factor. The results of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker （QAMS）were compared with those of external standard method （ESM）. RESULTS There were 18 common peaks in the fingerprints of 10 batches of Yinhuang solution for inhalation ，and their similarities with reference fingerprint were higher than 0.90. A total of 7 common peaks were identified as baicalin ，neochlorogenic acid ，chlorogenic acid ， cryptochlorogenic acid ，isochlorogenic acid B ，3，5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid and 4，5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid. The linear range of neochlorogenic acid ，chlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid were 0.025 0-1.247 4 μg（r＝0.999 7），0.039 3-1.178 7 μg（r＝ 0.999 9），0.031 6-1.184 1 μg（r＝0.999 9），respectively. RSDs of precision ，reproducibility and stability tests （48 h）were all lower than 1.0％. The average recoveries were 93.92％（RSD＝1.32％ ，n＝6），94.46％（RSD＝1.45％，n＝6），93.93％（RSD＝ 1.57％，n＝6）. Relative correction factors of neochlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid were 1.068 and 1.233. The contents of neochlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid determined by QAMS method were 0.301 8-0.386 3 and 0.262 5-0.362 5 mg/mL， respectively. The contents of neochlorogenic acid ，chlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid by ESM were 0.302 6-0.387 2， 0.231 0- 0.334 0，0.261 6-0.361 3 mg/mL，respectively. The deviations of the content determination results of the two methods（except for chlorogenic acid ）were both not higher than 0.20％. CONCLUSIONS Established HPLC fingerprints are stable and feasible. Established QAMS method is accurate and rapid. HPLC fingerprint combined with QAMS can be used for the quality control for Yinhuang solution for inhalation ．
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the change of epithelium growth factor(EGF), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), superoxide dismutese(SOD) and hemorrheology (HL) in patients with diabetic retinopathy.Methods EGF、TNF、SOD levels and HL changes have been measured in 30 NIDDM patients with retinopathy (DR group), 29 NIDDM patients without retinopathy (NDR group), and 29 patients with senile cataract and without diabetes as control (C group). Results The mean levels of EGF、TNF and blood viscosity were significantly higher in both DR and NDR group than those in C group; the mean levels of SOD was significantly lower in both DR and NDR group than that in C group. The EGF、TNF and blood viscosity was significantly higher in proliferative type DR than in background DR; The SOD was significantly lower in proliferative type DR than in background DR.Conclusion The development of diabetic retinopathy is related to the increase of EGF、TNF、blood viscosity and decrease of serum SOD.
