ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the relation among the quality of the Paridis polyphylla and different species and growth conditions, and help to provide scientific foundation for introduction and cultivation of Paridis polyphylla.Methods The samples of Paridis polyphylla were collected by different varieties, different growth years, different harvest seasons and different altitude habitats. The content of saponins in Paridis polyphylla was measured by HPLC method according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015. The chromatographic column was ACQUITY UPLC? HSS T3 (3.0 mm× 100 mm, 1.8μm), the mobile phase was acetonitrile and water (gradient elution), with flow rate of 0.5 ml/min, detection wavelength was 203 nm and column temperature at 35℃.Results Total saponin content ranged from 1.35% to 3.89% among the varieties studied. The content of each components were listed as:Paris polyphylla Smith(PS) >Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis(Franch.) Hand.-Mazz. (PY) >Paris polyphylla Smith var. chinensis(Franch.) Hara (PC). From 3 to 10 years old of PC, the longer the growth years made the higher the total saponin content. Furthermore, total saponin content of PC increased gradually with the altitudes rising from 400 to 800 meters. The total saponin content of PY harvesting in spring was much higher than that of other seasons.Conclusions The Results showed the importance for introducing and cultivating of Paridis polyphylla.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the quality of Lonicerae flos and Lonicerae japonicae flos by determine the main active ingredients. Methods According to methods and standards of determination in Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 Edition), the content of chlorogenic acid , galuteolin , macranthoidin B and asperosaponin B in 50 batches of samples of Lonicerae japonicae flos and .Lonicerae flos were determined. Results For Lonicerae japonicae flos (Lonicera japonica Thunb.), the contents of galuteolin was higher, and chlorogenic acid was lower, less or no contain saponins. For the main species of Lonicerae flos (Lonicera macranthoides Hand.-Mazz. and Lonicera hypoglauca Miq.), the contents of chlorogenic acid and the sum of saponins were higher, less or no galuteolin. Conclusions The main active ingredients of Lonicerae japonicae flos and Lonicerae flos were different. The contents of saponins in some samples of Lonicerae japonicae flos were higher, so the test of saponin should be considered when its raw material for injection.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the different dehydrations of microwave-vacuurn drying and high temperature drying on contents of the major effective in fructus momordicae.Methods Using two different drying methods for processing of fructus momordicae, the mogroside Ⅴ, vitamin C in dried products which was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to a main indicator for comparing different drying methods.Results The contents of mogroside Ⅴ in fructus momordicae which processed by microwave-vacuum drying, microwave-vacuum drying after ripening treatment and high temperature drying were 1.14％, 1.19％ and 0.60％;the contents of vitamin C were 0.21％, 0.30％ and 0.000 06％.Conclusion The processing method of microwave-vacuum drying to keep active components is obviously better than which of high temperature drying.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for rapid identification of genuine and spurious Panax notoginseng.METHODS:19 batches of samples including P.notoginseng of different origins and the common spurious P.notoginseng in China were collected.The infrared spectra of the samples were collected using near infrared spectrometer,then the spectra were pretreated by unitary vector plus second derivative method and the identification model was established by factorization method.RESULTS:The verification on 10 batches of commercial P.notoginseng samples showed that the established model can accurately identify the genuine and the spurious P.notoginseng.CONCLUSION:NIR spectrometry can quickly and accurately identify the quality of P.notoginseng,and it can be applied in rapid drug testing vehiches for extensive use.
ABSTRACT
Objective To identify Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants. Methods Identification of Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants was carried out by comparing its characteristic,microscopic,TLC and UV Spectra. Results There were many differences between Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants. Conclusion The methods reported in the article could identify Caulis Piperis Kadsureae well..
