ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To evalu ate the quality of crude drug and di fferent processed products of Eriobotryae Folium . METHODS Ten batches of Eriobotryae Folium were processed into honey-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，ginger-juice-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，ginger-juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium ，licorice-juice-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，licorice-juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium ，stir-fried Eriobotryae Folium ，totally 70 batches of samples . The contents of alcohol-soluble extracts ，the contents of total triterpene acids （calculated by ursolic acid ）and five triterpene acids such as euscaphic acid were determined by hot-dipping method ，ultraviolet and visibe spectrophotometry and high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC），respectively. The fingerprints were established with HPLC and their similarity evaluation was conducted with Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint （2004A）. Common peaks were identified by comparison with mixed control. Hierarchical clustering analysis ，principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） were performed by using SPSS 22.0 software and SIMCA-P 14.1 software. RESULTS In Eriobotryae Folium ，honey-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，ginger-juice-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，ginger-juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium ，licorice-juice-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium ，licorice-juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium ，stir-fried Eriobotryae Folium ，average contents of alcohol-soluble extracts were 25.90％，39.95％，27.44％，28.20％，28.38％，26.36％ and 29.26％；average contents of total triterpene acids were 40.62，49.33，52.56，46.38，52.17，55.06 and 53.41 mg/g；average contents of euscaphic acid ，crataegolic acid ，corosolic acid ， oleanolic acid ，ursolic acid and average total content were 1.966-4.808，1.459-2.824，4.525-8.172，1.294-1.817，6.294-8.470， 15.538-25.671 mg/g，respectively. There were 11 common peaks in 70 batches of samples ，and the peak 2，5，6，10 and 11 were identified as euscaphic acid ，crataegolic acid ，corosolic acid ， oleanolic acid and ursolic acid. The similarities of crude drug different processed products with crude drug fringer print were 0.919-1.000. Among 70 batches of samples ，10 batches of Eriobotryae Folium could be clustered into one category ，and 10 batches of ginger- juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium could be clustered into one category ；other 50 batches of processed products of Eriobotryae Folium could be clustered into one category ； the cumulative variance contribution rate of the first two principal components was 80.682％；variable importance in projection （VIP）value was in descending order ，i.e. peak 2（euscaphic acid ）＞peak 5（crataegolic acid ）＞peak 6（corosolic acid ）＞peak 9 （unknown component ） ＞peak 11 （ursolic acid ）＞peak 10 （oleanolic acid ）， which of them were all higher than 1. CONCLUSIONS After processing ，the contents of alcohol-soluble extracts ，total triterpene acids and the total content of five triterpene acids （euscaphic acid ，crataegolic acid ，corosolic acid ，oleanolic acid and ursolic acid ）increased in varying degrees ， among which the content of alcohol-soluble extracts in honey-stir-baked Eriobotryae Folium was the highest ，the content of total triterpene acids in licorice-juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium was the highest ，and total content of five triterpene acids in ginger- juice-boiled Eriobotryae Folium was the highest. Euscaphic acid ，crataegolic acid ，corosolic acid ，ursolic acid ，oleanolic acid and other components may be the differential components affecting the quality of raw and processed the leaves from Eriobotryae Folium .
ABSTRACT
Objective: To improve the quality standard for Qiangli Pipa distillate formula. Methods: The chemical reactions for i-dentification in the old standard were deleted. TLC methods were established to identify Papaveris pericarpium, Eriobotryae folium and Platycodonis radix. The contents of morphine and codeine phosphate from Papaveris pericarpium were determined by HPLC. The chro-matographic conditions for morphine content determination were as follows: an Inertsil ODS-3 chromatographic column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μ m ) was used, the mobile phase was acetonitrile-the mixture of 0. 01 mol·L-1sodium heptane sulfonate and 0. 02 mol ·L-1potassium dihydrogen phosphate with equal amount (10% phosphoric acid was used to adjust pH to 2. 8) ( 13: 87 ), the detec-tion wavelength was 220 nm ,the column temperature was 30 ℃, and the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1. The chromatographic condi-tions for codeine phosphate content determination were as follows : an Inertsil ODS-3 chromatographic column (250 mm×4. 6 mm, 5 μ m ) was used, the mobile phase was acetonitrile-the mixture of 0. 01 mol·L-1sodium heptane sulfonate and 0. 02 mol·L-1s potas-sium dihydrogen phosphate with equal amount (10% phosphoric acid was used to adjust pH to 2. 8) ( 15: 85 ), the detection wave-length was 220 nm, the column temperature was 30 ℃, and the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1. Results: TLC had obvious characteris-tics with clear and well-separated spots. Morphine showed a good linear relationship within the range of 3. 14-62. 8 μg·ml-1( r=1. 000 0) with the average recovery of 96. 69% (RSD=2. 41% , n=9). Codeine phosphate showed a good linear relationship within the range of 3. 52-87. 94 μg·ml-1(r=1. 000 0) with the average recovery of 95. 68% (RSD=2. 64% , n=9). Conclusion: The quality standard for Qiangli Pipa distillate formula is improved. The methods are easy-operated and accurate with good specificity, which are suitable for the quality control of Qiangli Pipa distillate formula.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for determination of six triterpene acids in solid dispersion tablets of Eriobotryae Folium total triterpenoid acids by HPLC-ELSD.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To develop a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) method for the simultaneous determination of six triterpene acid (euscaphic acid, tormentic acid, maslinic acid, corosolic acid, oleanolic acid, and ursolic acid) contents in the effective fraction of Eriobotryae Folium. Methods: Ursolic acid was used as the internal reference substance, and the relative correlation factors (RCF) of euscaphic acid, tormentic acid, maslinic acid, corosolic acid, and oleanolic acid were determined by HPLC-ELSD with good reproducibility. The contents of the five components were calculated according to the RCF, respectively. The contents of these six triterpene acids in 15 batches of effective fraction were determined by the external standard method. The rationality, feasibility, and repeatability of the QAMS method were verified by comparing the results obtained from the two different methods. Results: For the six triterpene acids, there was no significant difference between the quantitative results with the two different methods in the 15 batches. Conclusion: The method established in this research is accurate and feasible that it just needs to assay single-marker (ursolic acid) for the determination of six triterpene acids in the effective fraction of Eriobotryae Folium simultaneously. Therefore, this method could provide a new reference for the quality assess of multi components in Chinese materia medica.
