HPLC fingerprint of Tibetan medicinal plant ″Bangga″ and chemical components analysis of its two original plants by LC-MS/MS / 中国中药杂志

To obtain the chemical profile of Tibetan medicinal plant ″Bangga″, the present study established the HPLC fingerprint of ″Bangga″ and inferred common chemical constituents of its two original plants, Aconitum tanguticum and A. naviculare by LC-MS. The HPLC analysis was performed on a Kromasil 100 C_8 column(4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm) with acetonitrile(A)-0.1% formic acid in water(B) as mobile phase in a gradient elution mode. Besides, the flow rate was set at 1 mL·min~(-1) and the column temperature was 35 ℃. The detection wavelength was set at 255 nm and the injection volume was 10 μL. Seventeen batches of ″Bangga″ samples were analyzed and the HPLC fingerprint was established under the above conditions. Similarity evaluation was performed using Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine(2012). As a result, 16 common peaks were selec-ted and the similarity values of 17 batches of ″Bangga″ were in the range of 0.702-0.966. Furthermore, one batch of A. tanguticum and one batch of A. naviculare were analyzed by LC-MS/MS and 74 common compounds were inferred, including 10 phenolic acids, 26 flavonoids, and 38 alkaloids. The established method, with good separation and strong specificity, is simple and feasible, and can be used for the quality control of ″Bangga″ and identification of its two original plants. A. tanguticum and A. naviculare are similar in chemical composition and component content, but are quite different in the content of flavonoids.

Herbal Textual Research on Tibetan Medicine "Bangga" / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

This study was aimed to make clear the origin and clinical applications of the Tibetan medicine "Bangga".Based on the systematical consultation of the Tibetan medical literature documents and the Chinese version,such as The King's Medicine,The Four Medical Tantras,Jing Zhu Materia Medica,the herbal textual research was made on the name,based source,origin and harvesting season,function,indication and etc.of Tibetan medicine "Bangga".The results showed that Tibetan medicine "Bangga" comes from the whole dried plant of Aconitum naviculare Stapf or A.tanguticum (Maxim) Stapf of Ranunculaceae plants.It was concluded that the research on the origin of Tibetan medicine "Bangga" can provide a basis for the application and promotion of quality standards of "Bangga".

Resources and usage status of Tibetan medicinal plant "Bangga" / 中国中药杂志

The study is aimed to clarify the actual original plant, find out the usage status and the resource distribution of the Tibetan medicinal plant "Bangga". By using the way of the literatures survey, interview and investigation, it found out that the actual original plant of the Tibetan medicinal plant "Bangga" were the whole dried plant or the aerial part of Aconitum tanguticum or A. naviculare of Ranunculaceae, among which A. tanguticummainly distributed in Sichuan, Gansu, Qinghai, Tibet (Qamdo), and A. naviculare mainly distributed in Tibet. Sichuan, Gansu, Qinghai and other Tibetan areas mainly used the resources of A. tanguticum, Tibet (except the Qamdo area) mainly uses the A. naviculare, which resource was imminent in danger. Other species described in the literature were not used. It showed that the use of herbs related to their resources, it is recommended to strengthen the protection and guide the market.
