Methods: Based on the HPLC-DAD-ELSD and response surface design method, the qualified rate of decoction pieces, the content of index components and bending inspection were used as comprehensive inspection indicators, and the three factors of infiltration were selected for response surface experimental design to optimize the infiltration process of Astragalus medicinal materials parameter. Results: The best infiltration process was as following: infiltration temperature was 20 ℃, with water addition of 1:0.988 for 6 h. Under this process, the qualified rate of Astragalus pieces was 95.81%, the content of calycosin-7-glucoside was 0.072%, and the content of astragaloside IV was 0.276 %. Combining fingerprint analysis and heat map analysis, the material basis of A. membranaceus var. mongholicus changed during the infiltration process. The infiltration parameters should be strictly controlled during the infiltration process to ensure uniform quality of the pieces.

RESUMEN
Objective This study aimed to establish an integral quality control method for Naoxintong capsules based on the theory of quality markers (Q-marker) in traditional Chinese medicine via multivariable statistical calculation and "active compounds-targets" network construction. Methods Multi-statistical methods were firstly carried out to explore the specific components from different batches of Naoxintong Capsules. The "Q-markers-targets-pathways-diseases" network was constructed using the Bioinformatics Analysis Tool for Molecular Mechanism of Traditional Chinese Medicine (BATMAN-TCM) online analysis tool, and biological information annotations were made. Moreover, a simultaneously determination method for Q-markers was established by using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Results Nine compounds were chose as the Naoxintong Q-markers capsules including mulberroside A, hydroxysafflor yellow A, paeoniflorin, ferulic acid, calycosin-7-glucoside, rosemary acid, salvianolic acid B, formononetin, and tanshinone IIA. To verify the prediction, target network construction analysis was performed and indicated that the nine Q-markers mainly targeted five proteins which were PTGIS, PTGS2, CHRNA10, ENPP1, and ADORA2A. Methodological validation showed that the established UPLC method had good linear relationship (r<0.999), and all RSD values were lower than 3% in the repeatability, stability, and precision test. Conclusion Based on the multivariate statistics, network pharmacology analysis, and UPLC multi-component quantitative analysis, a multi-angle analysis method for effective components can be established for the integral quality control of Naoxintong Capsules.

RESUMEN
Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of calycosin-7-glucoside, genistein, formononetin and medicarpin in Radix Hedysari. Methods: The sample was refluxed with methanol in a water bath. The HPLC was performed on an SunFire C18 column(250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm) with acetonitrile-0. 2% H3 PO4 as the mobile phase by gradient elution. The flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 and the column temperature was at 35℃. The detection wavelength was 240 nm and the sample size was 20 μl. Results:The linear range of calycosin-7-glucoside was 0.035-1.042 μg(r=0.999 6), that of genistein was 0.027-0.821 μg(r=0. 999 7), that of formononetin was 0. 031-0. 941 μg(r=0. 999 9) and that of medicarpin was 0. 025-0. 745 μg(r=0. 999 6). The average recovery of calycosin-7-glucoside, genistein, formononetin and medicarpin was 100. 32%(RSD=1. 87%), 99. 3%(RSD=1. 76%), 100. 5%(RSD=1. 48%) and 99. 2%(RSD=1. 45%)(n=6), respectively. Conclusion:The method shows short analyt-ic time, good stability and promising operation accuracy, which provides the reference for the quality control of Radix Hedysari.

RESUMEN
Objective: To establish a UPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneously determining ten components (chromogenic acid, liquiritin apioside, calycosin-7-glucoside, cynaroside, liquiritin, ferulic acid, isoliquiritoside, harpagoside, liquiritigenin, and cinnamic acid) in Tongsaimai Pellets. Methods: A method for the simultaneous determination of the ten components was established by UPLC-MS/MS. The analysis was performed on a Waters Acquity BEH C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with the mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid/water as mobile phase, and the gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The analytes were detected by tandem mass spectrometry with the electrospray ionization (ESI) source combined with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Results: The linear relationships between the concentration and peak areas of the ten components were chromogenic acid Y = 294.09 X + 17624; liquiritin apioside Y = 19.296 X + 748.42; calycosin-7-glucoside Y = 670.8 X + 11121; cynaroside Y = 490.45 X + 2938.3; liquiritin Y = 33.489 X + 555; ferulic acid Y = 127.76 X + 1343.5; isoliquiritoside Y = 57.87 X + 804.81; harpagoside Y = 13.125 X-20.365; liquiritigenin Y = 29.057 X + 367.71; cinnamic acid Y = 72.867 X + 1301.5 (r > 0.9990); The precisions, repeatabilities, and stabilities of the method were satisfactory, and the average recoveries were between 96.00% and 104.67% with the relative standard deviations no more than 3%. Conclusion: The established method is specific, rapid, and accurate for the determination of the ten effective components in Tongsaimai Pellets.
