Chemical components analysis by GC-MS of supercritical-CO_2 extracts from Tibetan medicine Pazhu Capsule / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM:To study the main chemical components of traditional Tibetan medicine Pazhu Capsule(Calcitum,Fructus Chebulae,Semen Granati,Fructus Piperis,Fructus Piperis Longi,etc.) in the treatment of gastropathy. METHODS: The soluble components of Pazhu Capsule were extracted by supercritical-CO_2 fluid.The components were measured by GC-MS and the relative amount of them were determined by peak area normalization.(RESULTS:)22 components were identified.The main components were piperine(44.2%),9,12-Octadecadienoic acid(z,z)(21.1%),Azuleno[45-b] furan-2(3H)-one,3a,4,6a,7,8,9,9a,9b-octahydro-6-methyl-3,9-bis(methylene)-,[3as-(3a.alpha.,9a.alpha.,9b.beta.)](10.55%),n-Hexadecanoic acid(4.8%) and 2(3H)-Benzofuranone,6-ethenylhexahydro-6-methyl(33.5%).CONCLUSION: The main components of the Tibetan medicine Pazhu Capsule are piperine and 9,12-Ocatadecadienoic acid,both contents are up to 65.3% of the total extracts.
