Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quality control of traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and particularly relates to a quality control method of honeysuckle medicinal materials. BACKGROUND

[0002] Honeysuckle is the dried flower buds or with the initial opened flowers of Lonicera japonica Thunb. of Caprifoliaceae, has the effects of clearing heat and resolving toxicity, and dispelling wind-heat, and is used for treating carbuncle, sores, laryngalgia, erysipelas, dysentery, wind-heat cold and warm disease fever. Honeysuckle is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicinal material, and its authenticity and quality are directly related to the safety and effectiveness of clinical medication. Influenced by the production place, variety, collection time, processing method, packaging method, storage time and the like, the product quality of honeysuckle on the market is uneven, and there is a lack of reliable and quantifiable quality grading standards. Therefore, improving the quality control standards of honeysuckle medicinal materials at the present stage is beneficial to the production enterprises of Chinese patent medicines to control the quality of honeysuckle purchased, so as to improve the quality of the finished preparation products containing honeysuckle and the clinical safety and effectiveness. SUMMARY

[0009] At present, the physicochemical identification of honeysuckle in Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 and 2020 edition takes chlorogenic acid as the quality control index, but there is also chlorogenic acid in eucommia leaf, green coffee beans, sunflower seeds, green tea, tobacco and sweet potato leaves. When the medicinal material is micronized and it is difficult to carry out property identification, the control index of chlorogenic acid cannot accurately identify honeysuckle. In order to improve the accuracy of identification, the present application takes chlorogenic acid and osmanthus together as the index component of physicochemical identification, which helps to more accurately identify whether the sample to be tested is honeysuckle.

[0010] According to the index component, the solvent of the test solution and the extraction method are investigated, and methanol is determined as the solvent, and ultrasonic extraction is carried out for 14-16 minutes.

[0048] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0049] At present, the physicochemical identification of honeysuckle in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 edition and 2020 edition takes chlorogenic acid as the quality control index, but there is also chlorogenic acid in eucommia ulmoides leaf, green coffee beans, sunflower seeds, green tea, tobacco and sweet potato leaves. When the morphology of the medicinal material is destroyed and it is difficult to carry out property identification, the control index of chlorogenic acid cannot accurately identify honeysuckle. In order to improve the accuracy of identification, the present application takes chlorogenic acid and chrysanthemum as the index components of physicochemical identification, which helps to more accurately identify whether the sample to be tested is honeysuckle.

[0050] When the index components are multiple, the preparation of the test solution needs to comprehensively consider that the two components can be extracted and are not interfered by other components in the development process, so as to accurately carry out physicochemical identification. Therefore, the solvent and extraction method of the test solution are investigated in the present application, and it is determined that methanol or ethanol is used as the solvent and ultrasonic extraction is carried out for 14-16 minutes. The test solution obtained by the extraction method is developed by the developing agent of ethyl acetate:formic acid:water in a volume ratio of 7:(2.5-5):(2.5-5), and the chlorogenic acid and chrysanthemum spots can be clearly displayed after color development, and are not interfered by other components in honeysuckle.

[0051] In terms of content detection, the original pharmacopoeia has a single index component. The present application optimizes the content determination of chlorogenic acid and chrysanthemum glycoside in the pharmacopoeia, increases the content determination of caffeoyl quinine acid compounds and iridoid compounds, and increases the medicinal material fingerprint.

[0052] The above identification, content determination method and medicinal material fingerprint improve the quality standard of honeysuckle, can accurately identify honeysuckle and detect the quality thereof, and has a positive effect on the production enterprises of Chinese patent medicines to control the quality of honeysuckle purchased, improve the quality of the products of the prepared prescription containing honeysuckle, and the clinical safety and effectiveness.
