RESUMO
OBJECTIVE： To establish UPLC fingerprint of Fortunella margarita， and to conduct its cluster analysis and principal component analysis. METHODS： UPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Waters Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1％ phosphoric acid solution （gradient elution） at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 330 nm， and sample size was 2 μL. Using fortunellin as reference， UPLC fingerprints of 8 batches of F. margarita were determined. The similarity of 8 batches of samples was evaluated by TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System（2012 edition） to confirm common peak. Cluster analysis and principal component analysis were performed by using SPSS 24.0 software. RESULTS： There were 24 common peaks in UPLC fingerprints of 8 batches of sample，the similarity of which was higher than 0.97. Cluster analysis showed that 8 batches of samples were clustered into 2 categories. S1， S2， S3， S4， S6， S7 and S8 were clustered into one category； S5 was clustered into the other category. By principal component analysis， the accumulative contribution rate of three main components was 81.366％. CONCLUSIONS： Established UPLC fingerprint， the results of cluster analysis and principal component analysis can provide reference for quality control of F. margarita.
RESUMO
Essential oils of the fresh leaves and fruits of Fortunella margarita Lour. Swingle (Family: Rutaceae) were prepared by hydrodistillation method, which resulted with 0.27 and 0.30% respectively. The resulted oils of both organs were analyzed by GC/MS which revealed the presence of twenty compounds in the leaves oil representing 86.96% of the oil, from which gurjunene, eudesmol and muurolene were identified as major compounds. The fruit’s oil was found to contain fourteen compounds representing 77.77% of the oil, of which terpineol, t-carveol, limonene, muurolene and cadinene represented the major compounds. The antiviral activity of the essential oils of both leaves and fruits was tested against avian influenza-A virus (H5N1), and the results revealed higher potency of fruits oil. Moreover, the essential oils of the leaves and fruits were investigated for their antimicrobial and antifungal activities. The oil of the leaves showed antimicrobial activity higher than that of the fruits at dilution (1:50 v/v) against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Sarcina luta and Streptococcus faecalis, also it has a moderate activity against Escherichia coli, Klebsilla pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeroginosa. On the other hand, the antifungal activity of the leaves and fruits revealed that the fruits exhibited higher activity than that of the leaves against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans.
