Quality study of Perillae caulis formula granules based on standard decotion / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish the quality evaluation method of Perillae caulis formula granules based on the three kind of quality indexes of standard decoction. Methods:Eighteen batches of Perillae caulis were collected from different habitats according to different technical requirements, eighteen batches of standard decoction and three batches of formula granules were prepared and the paste-forming rates were calculated. The content of Caffeic acid and Rosmarinic acid were determined and calculated by Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC). Then the fingerprints of standard decoction of and formula granules of Perillae caulis were established by UPLC . The similarity values of fingerprints between formula granules and standard decoction were calculated. Results:The average paste-forming rate of standard decoction was (7.16±1.97)%. The paste-forming rates of three batches of formula granules were 5.52%, 5.25% and 5.34%, respectively. The average content of Caffeic acid and Rosmarinic acid in standard decoction was (12.06±3.37)mg/g. The contents of three batches of formula granules were 5.52, 5.82, 5.77 mg/g, respectively. Seven common fingerprint peaks were identified in the fingerprints of standard decoction and formula granules, three of which were identified as Caffeic acid, N-Feruloyl Octopus amine and Rosmarinic acid by comparison of reference substance. The fingerprints similarity of Perillae caulis dispensing granules and standard decoction were 1.000, 0.995 and 0.997, respectively. Conclusions:The quality indexes of three batches of formulation granules are consistent with standard decoction. This method can provide basis for the establishment of quality standard of Perillae caulis dispensing granules.
