Studies on correlation for GC-MS fingerprints of Blumea balsamifera and its extracts / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective: To establish a GC-MS fingerprint method of Blumea balsamifera (BB), Aifen, and Blumea balsamifera oil (BBO), and make a correlation study of the results. Methods: A GC-MS method was developed for the fingerprint analysis of BB, Aifen, and BBO. Then the CHROMAP 1.5 fingerprint system software was used for processing the results as setting up their common patterns, painting the common peaks and evaluating the similarity, and according to the NIST11 standard mass spectrometry database the common peaks would be analyzed. Results: The GC-MS fingerprints of BB, Aifen, and BBO were established. There were 40 common peaks in common fingerprints of BB, 17 of Aifen, and 31 of BBO were painted and all of BB, 13 of Aifen, and 25 of BBO were identified. The similarty of BB was 0.632-0.989, the extractions were greater than 0.900. BB and its extract had a good correlation between fingerprints. Conclusion: The study is simple, accurate, and reliable, which can be used for identification and quality control of BB, Aifen, and BBO.
