Objective:To establish the fingerprint of Bupleuri Radix with Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) method and combining Principal Component Analysis to evaluate the quality of Bupleuri Radix in different areas. Methods:Acquity UPLC BEH-C 18 (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 μm) column was used with acetonitrile (A)-water (B) solution, gradient elution. The column temperature was 30 ℃, the flow rate was 0.3 ml/min, and the detection wavelength was 200 nm, injection volume 5 μl. Results:There were 7 common peaks in the UPLC fingerprints of 10 batches of medicinal materials, and the similarity was 0.940-0.975. Through the principal component analysis, the cumulative contribution rate of three main component factors was 90.977%,and comprehensive score of S5 (Hubei) was the highest with the best quality.Conclusions:There are certain quality differences of different areas in Bupleuri Radix. Through the combination of fingerprint and principal component analysis, it can provide reference for quality control, development and application of Bupleuri Radix.

Objective:To determine the contents of quercetin, kaempferol, total flavonoids and extracts in 52 samples of Lysimachiae Herba collected from different origins; To analyze the quality differences of Lysimachiae Herba among different producing areas. Methods:The quercetin and kaempferol contents of the Lysimachiae Herba from Guizhou Province, Sichuan Province and Chongqing were determined by HPLC, and the total flavonoids were determined by Symergy HTX microplate reader. Results:The total content of quercetin and kaempferol in 52 samples was among 0.146 2-2.517 0 mg/g, with an average content of 0.872 6 mg/g, among which the average content of Sichuan was 1.073 2 mg/g, that of Guizhou was 0.705 4 mg/g, and that of Chongqing was 0.865 1 mg/g. Among them, 20 samples reached the standard of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The average content of the samples that met the standard was 1.439 7 mg/g. The compliance rate of samples collected in Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing reached 12.5%, 62.5%, and 38.8% respectively. The total flavonoid content of 52 samples was among 0.994 2- 3.866 4 mg/g, and 52 samples were in conformity with the ethanol hot extract standard of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Conclusions:The total contents of quercetin and kaempferol from different sources in Sichuan, Guizhou and Chongqing are quite different, and the total contents of quercetin and kaempferol collected from the same district and county are also quite different, and the compliance rate is low. There are great differences in total flavonoids in different producing areas and different populations of Lysimachiae Herba samples collected in the field.

Objective:To establish a method of measuring the contents of gallic acid, brevifolin, corilagin, geraniin, ellagic acid and rutin in Phyllanthus urinaria L. simultaneously with fingerprint study for analysis. Methods:Phyllanthus urinaria L. was extracted by ultrasound with 50% methanol. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Phenonmenex Luna C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (A) and 0.1% phosphoric acid aqueous solution (B) with gradient elution. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min. The column temperature was 25 ℃, and the injection volume was 10 μl. The detection wavelength was 270 nm. HPLC fingerprints of Phyllanthus urinaria L. from different habitats was established. PCA and OPLS-DA were used to analyze the differences in chemical components of different habitats. Results:Gallic acid, brevifolin, corilagin, geraniin, ellagic acid and rutin showed good linearity at 0.042 8-0.641 6, 0.033 4-0.501 4, 0.142 2-2.133 1, 0.383 1-5.746 5, 0.063 1-0.946 2 and 0.019 2-0.287 8 μg, respectively. The average recovery rate of them was 103.65%, 96.39%, 101.85%, 95.04%, 98.79% and 98.33%, respectively. The HPLC fingerprints of different habitats contained 14 characteristic common peaks, and six compounds characteristic peaks were identified. PCA analysis showed that the chemical components of Phyllanthus urinaria L. from different habitats were different. Geraniin, ellagic acid and corilagin were screened by OPLS-DA. Conclusions:The method is efficient, accurate and sensitive, which can be used to measure the six components in Phyllanthus urinaria L.. The established HPLC fingerprint of different habitats combined with the measrurement method of six components can be used for the quality control and evaluation of Phyllanthus urinaria L..
RESUMEN
Objective To set up the quality control standard for Leaf of Chinese Holly; To provide basis for the utilization and development of Leaf of Chinese Holly.Methods Ten batches of Leaf of Chinese Holly samples from different habitats were collected, and the properties were described. The crosscutting and powder of leaf was under microscopic identification. Chlorogenic acid was set as reference substance to conduct thin-layer identification. Moisture, total ash, and acid-insoluble ash of the 10 batches were detected. HPLC was used to detect chlorogenic acid in Leaf of Chinese Holly.Results The properties and microscopic identification were described. Thin-layer chromatography method for chlorogenic acid in Leaf of Chinese Holly was formulated. Check items temporarily required that the moisture in Leaf of Chinese Holly should be less than 13%, total ash less than 13%, and acid-insoluble ash less than 5%. Content determination method for chlorogenic acid in Leaf of Chinese Holly was confirmed. It temporarily required that the content of chlorogenic acid should be more than 0.60%.Conclusion The established method can be used for the formulation of quality control of Leaf of Chinese Holly.
