Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of component detection, and in particular to a method for simultaneously determining the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction. Background Art

[0002] Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction is composed of 8 herbs such as Drynaria rhizome, Millettia reticulata Benth., Polygonum multiflorum Thunb., Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bunge, Codonopsis pilosula Nannf., etc., and has the effects of replenishing qi and nourishing blood, tonifying the kidney and strengthening the spleen, and is used for increasing peripheral blood white blood cells and weakness after leukopenia caused by other reasons. The current quality standard is included in the Chinese patent medicine formula preparations (Volume VII) in the Drug Standards of the Ministry of Health, standard number: WS3-B-1300-93, and there is no content determination item in the quality standard. Some studies have determined the contents of naringin in the main herb Drynaria rhizome and 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside (hereinafter referred to as "stilbene glucoside") in Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.

[0003] However, the complexity of the active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine compound is relatively high. Evaluating the product quality with a single component is not comprehensive enough and difficult to meet the requirements for improving the quality standard of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a detection method that can simultaneously determine the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to simultaneously determine the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction, the present application provides a method for simultaneously determining the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction.

[0005] The method for simultaneously determining the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction provided by the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A method for simultaneously determining the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Step 1), mixing Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction with a solvent to obtain a test sample;

[0008] Step 2), adding the test sample into a chromatographic column, using a high performance liquid chromatography instrument to determine the chromatogram of the test sample, and calculating the contents of stilbene glucoside, acteoside, neoeriocitrin, and naringin according to the characteristic peak areas of stilbene glucoside, acteoside, neoeriocitrin, and naringin;

[0009] In the said step 2), the chromatographic conditions at least include:

[0010] Mobile phase A is acetonitrile, mobile phase B is phosphoric acid solution, and the concentration of phosphoric acid in the phosphoric acid solution is 0.2%;

[0011] The column temperature of the chromatographic column is 20-25°C;

[0012] Gradient elution is adopted;

[0013] The Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction is prepared by decocting Caulis Spatholobi, Drynaria rhizome, Polygonum multiflorum Thunb., Astragalus membranaceus, malt, Glossy Privet Fruit, Codonopsis pilosula, and Fructus Citri Sarcodactylis.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, through the combination of a specific mobile phase and a specific column temperature, the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin can appear simultaneously, with less interference between them, and the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin are less interfered by the characteristic peaks of other impurities, so that the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin are better resolved. When calculating the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin through the peak area, the accuracy is higher. Moreover, by measuring four characteristic peaks at one time, the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the complex component system of the Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction can be measured more accurately, and the detection result is more reliable, providing a feasible technical means for improving the quality standard of the Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction and helping to further improve the quality of the Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction.

[0015] Preferably, in the step 1), the solvent is a methanol solution with a concentration of 50%.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, by specifically selecting a methanol solution with a concentration of 50% as the solvent, the resolution of each characteristic peak can be better improved, further reducing interference and making the detection result more accurate.

[0017] Preferably, in the step 2), the chromatographic column is a C18 chromatographic column.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, by specifically selecting the chromatographic column, the detection result is more reliable, with less interference, and it is more conducive to obtaining a more accurate detection result.

[0019] Preferably, in the step 2), the chromatographic conditions further include: the flow rate is 1 - 1.2 mL / min.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, by selecting a special flow rate, the resolution of each characteristic peak is higher, and the result of calculating the content of each component is more accurate.

[0021] Preferably, in the step 2), the chromatographic conditions further include: the detection wavelength is 224 nm.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, by specifically selecting the detection wavelength, it is more helpful to improve the resolution of each characteristic peak, better reduce interference, the detection result is more accurate and reliable, and it is more helpful to improve the product quality.

[0023] Preferably, in the step 2), the chromatographic conditions further include: the injection volume is 10 μL.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, by specifically selecting the sample injection volume, the resolution of each characteristic peak can be better improved, the interference of impurity peaks can be reduced, and the calculation of the component content is more accurate and reliable.

[0025] Preferably, in the step 2), the time periods of gradient elution and the volume ratios of acetonitrile in the mobile phase are as follows: 0 - 4 min, acetonitrile is 12%; 4 - 4.5 min, acetonitrile rises from 12% to 18%; 4.5 - 18 min, acetonitrile is 18%; 18 - 19 min, acetonitrile rises from 18% to 30%; 19 - 28 min, acetonitrile is 30%; 28 - 30 min, acetonitrile drops from 30% to 12%.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, by adopting a special gradient elution process, the resolution of each characteristic peak can be better improved, the mutual interference and the interference of impurity peaks can be better reduced, and the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin can be calculated more accurately.

[0027] Preferably, in the step 2), before or after the chromatogram of the test sample, the chromatogram of the reference substance is determined by high performance liquid chromatography;

[0028] By comparing the chromatogram of the reference substance with the chromatogram of the test sample, the content of each component in the test sample is calculated;

[0029] The preparation method of the reference substance is as follows:

[0030] Step 01), weigh neoeriocitrin, stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, and naringin;

[0031] Step 02), put neoeriocitrin, stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, and naringin into a methanol solution with a concentration of 40 - 60% and mix evenly to prepare the reference substance;

[0032] The process parameters for determining the chromatogram of the reference substance by high performance liquid chromatography are the same as those for determining the chromatogram of the test sample by high performance liquid chromatography.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, by measuring the chromatogram of the reference substance, knowing the concentration and peak area of the reference substance, and then comparing and calculating the area of the corresponding peak in the chromatogram of the test sample with the peak area of the reference substance, it is easier to calculate the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the test sample, and the calculation result is more accurate.

[0034] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0035] 1. Since this application uses a specific mobile phase in combination with a specific column temperature, the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin can appear simultaneously, with less interference among them. Moreover, the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin are less interfered by the characteristic peaks of other impurities, enabling better resolution of the characteristic peaks of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin. When calculating the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin through peak areas, the accuracy is relatively high. Additionally, measuring four characteristic peaks at once can more accurately determine the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the complex component system of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction, making the test results more reliable. This provides a feasible technical means for improving the quality standard of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction and helps further enhance the quality of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction.

[0036] 2. In this application, it is preferred to select a special flow rate to achieve higher resolution of each characteristic peak and more accurate results in calculating the contents of each component.

[0037] 3. In this application, it is preferred to adopt a special gradient elution process to better improve the resolution of each characteristic peak, better reduce mutual interference and the interference of impurity peaks, and more accurately calculate the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin.

[0057] The following further elaborates on the present application in conjunction with the examples.

[0058] Example 1

[0059] A method for simultaneously determining the contents of four components in Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction includes the following steps:

[0060] Step 1), take 1 ml of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction, place it in a 25-ml brown volumetric flask, add methanol with a concentration of 50% to the scale, shake well, filter with a 200-mesh filter cloth, take the filtrate, and prepare the sample to be tested;

[0061] Weigh 7.34 mg of neoeriocitrin, 1.822 mg of stilbene glucoside, 2.106 mg of specnuezhenide, and 9.108 mg of naringin, and place them all in a 10-ml brown volumetric flask. Add methanol with a concentration of 50% to dissolve and dilute to the scale, shake well, and prepare the reference substance. The mass concentrations of each component in the reference substance are respectively:

[0062] Neoeriocitrin 0.7333 mg / mL, stilbene glucoside 0.1727 mg / mL, specnuezhenide 0.1965 mg / mL, naringin 0.8489 mg / ml.

[0063] Step 2), add the test sample to the chromatographic column, and use a high-performance liquid chromatography instrument to measure the chromatogram of the test sample.

[0064] Add the reference substance to the chromatographic column, and use a high-performance liquid chromatography instrument to measure the chromatogram of the reference substance.

[0065] The chromatographic conditions for detecting the reference substance and the test sample are the same.

[0066] The chromatographic conditions are as follows:

[0067] The chromatographic column is Hypersil ODS C18 (4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm); the flow rate is 1.0 mL / min; the detection wavelength is 224 nm; the column temperature is 25 °C; the injection volume is 10 μL; mobile phase A is acetonitrile, and mobile phase B is a phosphoric acid solution with a concentration of 0.2%, gradient elution.

[0068] The volume change of acetonitrile in the mobile phase at each time period of gradient elution is shown in Table 1.

[0069] Table 1

[0070] Time (min) A% (acetonitrile) 0 12% 4 12% 4.5 18% 18 18% 19 30% 28 30% 30 12%

[0071] By comparing and calculating the characteristic peak areas of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the test sample with those in the reference substance, the contents of stilbene glucoside, specnuezhenide, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the test sample are obtained.

[0072] The calculation formula is as follows:

[0073]

[0074] W i is the content (mg / ml) of each specific substance;

[0075] C i对 is the concentration (mg / ml) of the reference substance solution of each specific substance;

[0076] A i对 is the peak area of the reference substance solution of each specific substance;

[0077] A i样 is the peak area of each specific substance;

[0078] The determination results of the contents of stilbene glycoside, ligustroside, neoeriocitrin, and naringin in the sample to be tested are as follows:

[0079] Content of neoeriocitrin: 1.082 mg / ml; content of stilbene glycoside: 0.2849 mg / ml; content of ligustroside: 0.2719 mg / ml; content of naringin: 1.240 mg / ml.

[0080] The preparation method of each batch of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction determined in this example is as follows:

[0081] Weigh 450 g of Caulis Spatholobi, 900 g of Rhizoma Drynariae, 300 g of Radix Polygoni Multiflori, 300 g of Radix Astragali, 300 g of Fructus Hordei Germinatus, 150 g of Fructus Ligustri Lucidi, 150 g of Radix Codonopsis, and 150 g of Fructus Citri Sarcodactylis, add 8.1 kg of water, decoct at 100 °C for 1 h to obtain the first decoction, then add 5.4 kg of water, decoct at 100 °C for 1 h to obtain the second decoction. Combine the first decoction and the second decoction, filter through a 200-mesh filter cloth, take the filtrate, concentrate the filtrate into a thick paste under 0.01 MPa, add ethanol to make the alcohol content 65%, let it stand for 2 h, filter through a 200-mesh filter cloth, take the filtrate, recover the ethanol from the filtrate until there is no alcohol, add 300 g of sucrose, heat to boiling, add 6.75 g of benzoic acid (preservative), mix well, filter through a 200-mesh filter cloth, take the filtrate, add water to make the volume up to 1000 ml, stir well to obtain Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction.

[0082] The spectrogram of the sample to be tested measured in this example is shown in detail in Figure 1 .

[0083] The spectrogram of the reference substance measured in this example is shown in detail in Figure 2 .

[0084] The retention times and resolution of each characteristic peak in this example are shown in Table 2 in detail.

[0087] According to Table 2, it can be obtained that the resolution of each peak in this example is greater than 2, and each peak is 100% separated. According to the results of Experiment 1, it is considered that there is no interference in Peak 1. When calculating the content of each component by the peak area, the accuracy is relatively high, which provides a feasible technical means for improving the quality standard of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction and helps to further improve the quality of Shengxue Tiaoyuan Decoction.

[0096] According to Table 3, the resolution of each peak except benzoic acid in this example is greater than 2, and each peak is 100% separated. Benzoic acid is a preservative and does not participate in the calculation of the content of each component, and does not affect the test results.

[0112] As can be seen from Table 5, the resolution of Peak 1 and Peak 2 is less than 2, and 100% separation cannot be achieved, resulting in mutual influence. When calculating the content of each component by peak area, the accuracy is relatively low.
