[0229] Take 0.5g of this product powder (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: 010200-2307001) and place it in a stoppered conical flask. Add 20ml of 30% methanol, 50% methanol, 70% methanol, methanol, water, and 50% ethanol respectively.

[0231] Take 0.5g of the powder of this product (passed through a No. 4 sieve, batch number: 010200-2307001), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20ml of methanol, and ultrasonically extract the test sample for 20 minutes, 30 minutes, and 40 minutes respectively. Cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate; the results are shown in Table 7. Figure 7 The chromatograms of Euphorbia rubrum medicinal materials at different extraction times are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that when the extraction time is 30 minutes, the chromatogram peak shape and separation are better, and the extraction is complete; therefore, the extraction time is determined to be 30 minutes.

[0233] Take 0.5g of this product powder (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: 010200-2307001) and place it in a stoppered conical flask. Add 10ml, 20ml and 50ml of methanol respectively, stopper it tightly, and treat it with ultrasound (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes. Shake well, filter and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 The chromatograms of Euphorbia rubrum medicinal materials with different solvent addition amounts are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that the chromatogram effects are basically the same under the conditions of different extraction solvent addition amounts. In order to ensure sufficient extraction, the solvent addition amount is determined to be 20 ml.

Figure 9 As shown, Figure 9 The chromatograms of red euphorbia medicinal materials under different extraction methods can be seen from the figure. When the test sample is first decocted and then ultrasonically extracted, there are fewer peaks. There is little difference in peaks between directly adding solvent for ultrasonic treatment and treatment, and the peak shapes are better separated. Therefore, the extraction method of the test sample is determined to be ultrasonic.

[0237] 1.4.5 Determine the test sample preparation method

[0238] The preparation method of the test solution of the red euphorbia medicinal material atlas is as follows: take about 0.5g of the powder of the product (passed through a No. 4 sieve), add 20ml of methanol, plug it tightly, and ultrasonically treat it (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes.

[0282] Based on the principle of stable relative retention times and the fact that peaks can be detected in all batches of samples at relatively high levels, a total of 12 peaks with good reproducibility were selected as characteristic peaks. The results showed that the RSD of the relative retention times of the 12 characteristic peaks in 21 batches of Euphorbia rubrum medicinal materials was less than 1.0%.

[0283] Final regulations: The test sample's characteristic spectrum should show 12 characteristic peaks, of which Peak 8 should correspond to the retention time of the corresponding reference peak of the control. The peak corresponding to the scutellariae reference peak is the S peak. The relative retention time of each characteristic peak and the S peak is calculated, and the relative retention time should be within ±10% of the specified value. The specified values ​​are: 0.12 (peak 1), 0.34 (peak 2), 0.38 (peak 3), 0.40 (peak 4), 0.46 (peak 5), 0.49 (peak 6), 0.60 (peak 7), 1.33 (peak 9), 1.37 (peak 10), 1.53 (peak 11), and 1.61 (peak 12).

[0329] Preparation of reference solution: Take 1 g of Euphorbia rubrum reference medicinal material, add 25 ml of water, decoct for 30 minutes, filter, evaporate the filtrate to dryness, add 25 ml of methanol to the residue, ultrasonically treat (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 20 minutes, let cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate as the reference medicinal material solution;

[0332] Determination method: Accurately aspirate 1 μl of reference solution and test solution respectively, inject into liquid chromatograph, and determine. 4.3 Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test

[0333] 4.3.1 Mobile phase selection

[0334] Methanol was used as mobile phase A and 0.2% phosphoric acid solution was used as mobile phase B for gradient elution. The results were as follows: Figure 21 As shown, Figure 21 This is the characteristic spectrum of Euphorbia acetophylla after the mobile phase is selected.

[0335] 4.3.2 Wavelength Selection

[0336] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the test solution was scanned in the full band using a diode array detector, and the chromatograms of the test solution at wavelengths of 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 280nm, 300nm, and 320nm were extracted respectively. The results are as follows: Figure 22 As shown, Figure 22 These are the chromatograms of vinegar-red euphorbia slices at different wavelengths. From top to bottom in the figure, they are the chromatograms of vinegar-red euphorbia slices at 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 300nm, 320nm, and 280nm. It can be seen from the figure that when the detection wavelength is 280nm, the amount of chromatographic peak information is larger and the chromatogram baseline is more stable, so the detection wavelength is determined to be 280nm.

[0337] 4.3.3 Column temperature investigation

[0338] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the column temperatures of 25℃, 30℃ and 35℃ were investigated respectively. The results are as follows: Figure 23 As shown, Figure 23The chromatograms of the vinegar-red euphorbia slices at different column temperatures are shown in the figure. It can be seen that when the column temperature is 30℃, the chromatogram peak shape is more symmetrical, the separation is better, and the peaks are more complete; therefore, the column temperature is temporarily set at 30℃.

[0339] 4.3.4 Flow rate investigation

[0340] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the flow rates of 0.2ml / min, 0.25ml / min and 0.3ml / min were investigated respectively. The results are as follows: Figure 24 As shown, Figure 24 The chromatograms of the vinegar-red euphorbia slices at different flow rates are shown in the figure. It can be seen that when the flow rate is 0.25ml / min, the chromatogram peak shape is better and the separation degree is moderate; therefore, the flow rate is temporarily set at 0.25ml / min.

[0341] 4.3.5 Delay Investigation

[0342] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, a delay test was conducted, and the results are as follows: Figure 25 As shown, Figure 25 This is the chromatogram of the delayed investigation of the vinegar-red Euphorbia decoction slices. It can be seen from the figure that the sample has basically no chromatographic peak after 50 minutes, so the sample detection time is set to 50 minutes.

[0343] In summary, the chromatographic conditions and system suitability test for the characteristic spectrum of Euphorbia rubra slices were determined as follows: octadecylsilane bonded silica gel was used as the filler (column length: 150 mm, inner diameter: 2.1 mm, particle size: 2.7 μm); methanol was used as mobile phase A, 0.2% phosphoric acid solution was used as mobile phase B, and gradient elution was performed according to the requirements of Table 14; the flow rate was 0.25 ml per minute; the column temperature was 30°C; the detection wavelength was 280 nm; and the number of theoretical plates calculated based on the trichol peak should be no less than 3000.

[0346] 4.4 Preparation of test solution

[0347] 4.4.1 Extraction solvent investigation

[0348] Take 0.5g of this product powder (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: CHDJ-230701) and place it in a stoppered conical flask. Add 20ml of 30% methanol, 50% methanol, 70% methanol, methanol, water, and 50% ethanol respectively. Ultrasonicate (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes, let cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 26 As shown, Figure 26The chromatograms of Euphorbia pulex slices with different extraction solvents are shown in the figure. As can be seen from the figure, when the extraction solvent is methanol, the peak shapes of the characteristic peaks are good and the separation is moderate. The extraction solvent is tentatively set to methanol.

[0349] 4.4.2 Extraction time investigation

[0350] Take 0.5g of the powder of this product (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: CHDJ-230701), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20ml of methanol, and ultrasonically extract the sample for 20 minutes, 30 minutes, and 40 minutes respectively. Cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate; the results are as follows: Figure 27 As shown, Figure 27 The chromatograms of the Euphorbia rapa slices at different extraction times are shown in the figure. As can be seen from the figure, when the extraction time is 30 minutes, the chromatogram peak shape and separation are better, and the extraction is complete; therefore, the extraction time is determined to be 30 minutes.

[0351] 4.4.3 Investigation of solvent addition amount

[0352] Take 0.5g of this product powder (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: CHDJ-230701) and place it in a stoppered conical flask. Add 10ml, 20ml and 50ml of methanol respectively, stopper it tightly, and treat it with ultrasound (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes. Shake well, filter and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 28 As shown, Figure 28 The chromatograms of Euphorbia rubra slices with different solvent addition amounts are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that when the extraction solvent addition amount is 20 ml, the peak shape and separation of each chromatographic peak are better; therefore, 20 ml of solvent is selected.

[0353] 4.4.4 Investigation of extraction methods

[0354] Take 1.0 g of this product powder (passed through a No. 4 sieve, batch number: CHDJ-230701), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 50 ml of water and boil for 30 minutes, filter, evaporate to dryness, add 20 ml of methanol to the residue, stopper tightly, and ultrasonicate for 30 minutes (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz), let cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate to obtain;

[0355] Take another 0.5g of powder (passed through No. 4 sieve, batch number: 010200-2307001), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20ml of methanol, stopper it, reflux and ultrasonicate for 30 minutes (power 600W, frequency 40kHz), cool it, shake it well, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain the result. Figure 29 As shown, Figure 29 The chromatograms of Euphorbia acetochrome under different extraction methods are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that when the sample is first decocted and then ultrasonically extracted, there are fewer peaks. There is little difference in the peaks between directly adding solvent for ultrasonic treatment and treatment, and the peak shapes are better separated. Therefore, the extraction method of the sample is determined to be ultrasonic.

[0356] In summary, the preparation method of the test solution of the Euphorbia rubrum medicinal material atlas is determined as follows: take about 0.5 g of the product powder (passed through a No. 4 sieve), add 20 ml of methanol, plug it tightly, and ultrasonically treat it (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 minutes. Then cool it, shake it evenly, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain the product.

[0420] 5.3 Preparation of reference solution

[0421] Take 1 g of Euphorbia rubrum control medicinal material, add 25 ml of water, decoct for 30 minutes, filter, evaporate the filtrate to dryness, add 25 ml of methanol to the residue, ultrasonically treat (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 20 minutes, let cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate as the control medicinal material reference solution;

[0422] Take appropriate amount of cyperus alcohol and 3-hydroxybajiquinone reference substances, weigh them accurately, add methanol to make solutions containing 130μg and 30μg per 1ml respectively, as reference substance solutions.

[0423] 5.4 Preparation of test solution

[0424] Take 0.5 g of this product, place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20 ml of methanol, stopper it tightly, and treat it with ultrasound (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 minutes. Let it cool, shake it well, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain the product.

[0425] 5.5 Determination method

[0426] Accurately pipette 1 μl of reference solution and test solution respectively, inject into liquid chromatograph, and measure to obtain the result.

[0427] 5.5.1 Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test

[0428] 5.5.1.1 Mobile Phase Selection

[0429] Methanol was used as mobile phase A and 0.2% phosphoric acid solution was used as mobile phase B for gradient elution. The results were as follows: Figure 39 As shown, Figure 39 This is the chromatogram of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum.

[0430] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the diode array detector was used to scan the entire wavelength range of the test solution, and the chromatograms of the test solution at wavelengths of 220 nm, 260 nm, 270 nm, 280 nm, 300 nm, and 320 nm were extracted respectively. Figure 40 As shown, Figure 40 This is the wavelength selection diagram of the chromatogram of the standard decoction of red euphorbia. From top to bottom, the wavelengths are 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 300nm, 320nm, and 280nm. It can be seen from the figure that when the detection wavelength is 280nm, the chromatographic peak information volume is larger and the chromatogram baseline is more stable, so the detection wavelength is determined to be 280nm.

[0431] 5.5.1.2 Column temperature investigation

[0432] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the column temperatures of 25℃, 30℃ and 35℃ were investigated respectively; as shown in Table 23, Figure 41 As shown, Figure 41 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum at different column temperatures are shown in Figure 2.

[0433] Table 23 Column temperature-relative retention time data table

[0434]

[0435] The results of column temperature investigation showed that when the column temperature was 30℃, the chromatogram peaks were symmetrical and the separation was good, so 30℃ was finally determined as the column temperature for the characteristic spectrum method of the red euphorbia standard decoction.

[0436] 5.5.1.3 Flow rate investigation

[0437] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the flow rates of 0.20ml / min, 0.25ml / min, and 0.3ml / min were investigated, and the results are shown in Table 24. Figure 42 As shown, Figure 42 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum at different flow rates are shown;

[0438] Table 24 Flow rate-relative retention time data table

[0439]

[0440] The results showed that when the flow rate was 0.25 ml / min, the chromatogram peak shape was better and the separation was moderate, so the flow rate was determined to be 0.25 ml / min.

[0441] 5.5.1.4 Delay Investigation

[0442] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the chromatogram acquisition time was extended to 100 minutes. The results are as follows: Figure 43 As shown, Figure 43 This is the chromatogram of the delayed investigation of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum. It can be seen from the figure that the sample has basically no chromatographic peak after 50 minutes, so the sample detection time is set to 50 minutes.

[0443] In summary, the characteristic spectrum chromatographic conditions and system suitability test of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum are determined as follows:

[0444] The chromatographic conditions and system suitability test used octadecylsilane bonded silica gel as the filler (column length: 150 mm, inner diameter: 2.1 mm, particle size: 2.7 μm); methanol as mobile phase A, 0.2% phosphoric acid solution as mobile phase B, and gradient elution as specified in Table 25 below; the flow rate was 0.25 ml / min; the column temperature was 30°C; the detection wavelength was 280 nm; and the number of theoretical plates calculated based on the 3-hydroxyephrinone peak was not less than 3000.

Let it cool, shake it well, filter it, and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 47 As shown, Figure 47 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum under different solvent addition amounts are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that when the solvent addition amount is 20 ml, the chromatographic peak area of ​​the characteristic spectrum is moderate; therefore, the solvent addition amount of the test sample is determined to be 20 ml.

[0456] In summary, the preparation method of the test solution of the characteristic spectrum of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum is determined as follows: take about 0.5 g of the product, place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20 ml of methanol, stopper it, weigh it, ultrasonically treat it (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 minutes, cool it, shake it evenly, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain it.

The results show that when the detection wavelength is 280nm, the chromatographic peak information volume is larger and the chromatogram baseline is more stable, so the detection wavelength is determined to be 280nm.

[0538] Table 35 Column temperature-relative retention time data table

[0539]

[0540] The results of column temperature investigation showed that when the column temperature was 30℃, the chromatogram peaks were symmetrical and the separation was good, so 30℃ was finally determined as the column temperature for the characteristic spectrum method of the standard decoction of Euphorbia cyrtonema.

[0541] 6.6.4 Flow rate investigation

[0542] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the flow rates of 0.20ml / min, 0.25ml / min, and 0.3ml / min were investigated respectively; the results are shown in Table 36, Figure 60 As shown, Figure 60 The chromatograms of Euphorbia acetophylla standard decoction at different flow rates are shown;

[0543] Table 36 Flow rate-relative retention time data table

[0544]

[0545]

[0546] The results showed that when the flow rate was 0.25 ml / min, the chromatogram peak shape was better and the separation was moderate; therefore, the flow rate was determined to be 0.25 ml / min.

[0547] 6.6.5 Delay Investigation

[0548] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the chromatogram acquisition time was extended to 100 min; the results are as follows Figure 61 As shown, Figure 61 This is the chromatogram of the delayed investigation of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra. The results show that there is basically no chromatographic peak after 50 minutes, so the sample detection time is set to 50 minutes.

[0549] In summary, the characteristic spectrum chromatographic conditions and system suitability test of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra were determined as follows:

[0550] Chromatographic conditions and system suitability tests were conducted using octadecylsilane bonded silica gel as the filler (column length: 150 mm, inner diameter: 2.1 mm, particle size: 2.7 μm); methanol as mobile phase A, 0.2% phosphoric acid solution as mobile phase B, using gradient elution as specified in Table 37 below; flow rate: 0.25 ml / min; column temperature: 30°C; detection wavelength: 280 nm. The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the 3-hydroxyephrinone peak, should be no less than 3000.

Add 20ml of 30% methanol, 50% methanol, 70% methanol, methanol, water, and 50% ethanol respectively. Ultrasonicate (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes, let cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 62 As shown, Figure 62 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia acetophora under different extraction solvents are shown in the figure. As can be seen from the figure, the chromatographic peak information volume is large when methanol is used as the extraction solvent, so the extraction solvent of the test sample is determined to be methanol.

[0556] 6.6.6.2 Examination of extraction methods

[0557] Take 0.5g of this product (batch number CHDJ-BT-230701), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20ml of methanol, and examine the extraction method of the test sample when it is refluxed and ultrasonically. The extraction time is 30 minutes, cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate. The results are as follows: Figure 63 As shown, Figure 63The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia acetophora at different extraction times are shown in the figure. As can be seen from the figure, the effects of ultrasonic extraction and reflux extraction are consistent. Since ultrasonic extraction is more convenient, ultrasonic extraction is determined to be the extraction method for the test sample.

[0558] 6.6.6.3 Extraction time investigation

[0559] Take 0.5g of this product (batch number CHDJ-BT-230701), place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20ml of methanol, and observe the ultrasonic extraction time of the test sample at 20 minutes, 30 minutes, and 40 minutes respectively. Let it cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate; the results are as follows: Figure 64 As shown, Figure 64 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia acetophora at different extraction times are shown in Figure 1. As can be seen from the figure, sufficient extraction is achieved at an extraction time of 30 minutes. Therefore, the extraction time for the test sample was determined to be 30 minutes.

[0560] 6.6.6.4 Investigation of solvent addition amount

[0561] Take 0.5g of this product (batch number CHDJ-BT-230701) and place it in a stoppered conical flask. Add 10ml, 20ml and 50ml of methanol respectively. Seal the flask tightly and ultrasonically treat (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 30 minutes. Let it cool, shake well, filter and take the filtrate. The result is as follows: Figure 65 As shown, Figure 65 The chromatograms of the standard decoction of Euphorbia cyrtonema under different solvent addition amounts are shown in the figure. It can be seen that when the solvent addition amount is 20 ml, the chromatographic peak area of ​​the characteristic spectrum is moderate; therefore, the solvent addition amount of the test sample is determined to be 20 ml.

[0562] In summary, the preparation method of the test solution of the characteristic spectrum of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra is determined as follows: take about 0.5 g of the product, place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 20 ml of methanol, stopper it, weigh it, ultrasonically treat it (power 600 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 minutes, let it cool, shake it well, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain it.

[0567] Preparation of negative solution: According to the experimental conditions proposed above, prepare the test solution of Euphorbia rubrum decoction lacking vinegar;

[0568] Position the characteristic spectrum peaks of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra, such as Figures 66-70 As shown, Figure 66 This is the chromatogram for peak identification of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra. Figure 67 This is the spectrum of Euphorbia cyrtonema in the standard decoction of Euphorbia cyrtonema. Figure 68 This is the spectrum of the reference substance, Huciol. Figure 69 This is the spectrum of 3-hydroxybajiquinone in the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra. Figure 70 This is the spectrum of the reference substance 3-hydroxybajiquinone; it can be seen from the figure that peak 8 is trichol and peak 11 is 3-hydroxybajiquinone.

[0569] 6.7.2 Precision test

[0570] Take 0.5 g of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum (CHDJ-BT-230701) to prepare the test solution. According to the proposed experimental method, inject 6 times continuously, 1 μl each time, and calculate the retention time of each characteristic peak, as shown in Table 38;

[0571] Table 38 Precision Investigation-Retention Time Data Table

[0572]

[0573] The results showed that the RSD of each characteristic peak retention time was 0.13%-0.41%, indicating that the method has good precision.

[0574] 6.7.3 Repeatability Study

[0575] Six portions of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum (CHDJ-BT-230701) were prepared and assayed according to the proposed experimental method, as shown in Table 39.

[0576] Table 39 Repeatability Study - Relative Retention Time Data

[0577]

[0578]

[0579] The results showed that the RSD of the relative retention time of each characteristic peak was 0.27%-0.44%, indicating that the method has good reproducibility.

[0580] 6.7.4 Intermediate precision assessment

[0581] 6.7.4.1 Inspection of different instruments

[0582] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, three portions of the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum (CHDJ-BT-230701) were weighed to prepare the test solution, which was then measured on three different ultra-high performance liquid chromatographs (Shimadzu, Agilent, and Thermo Fisher). The results are shown in Table 40. Figure 71 As shown, Figure 71 Chromatograms for the durability investigation of different instruments for the standard decoction of Euphorbia rubrum;

[0583] Table 40 Instrument durability investigation - relative retention time data table

[0584]

[0585] The results showed that when the three instruments were used to detect the test samples, the RSD of the relative retention time of each characteristic peak was less than 48.92%, indicating that different instruments had a great influence on the relative retention time of the characteristic method.

[0586] 6.7.4.2 Inspection by different personnel and time

[0587] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, different personnel (A, B) accurately weighed the standard decoction of Euphorbia cyrtonema (CHDJ-BT-230701) at different times (T1, T2) to prepare the test samples for determination, as shown in Table 41.

[0588] Table 41 Personnel and time inspection-relative retention time data table

[0589]

[0590] The results showed that the method was stable when different people measured the same sample at different times.

[0591] 6.7.4.3 Durability assessment

[0592] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, different types of chromatographic columns were investigated; the results are as follows Figure 72 , as shown in Table 42; Figure 72 To investigate the chromatograms for the durability of different types of chromatographic columns;

[0593] Table 42 Chromatographic column durability investigation - relative retention time data table

[0594]

[0595]

[0596] From the above, we can see that when different types of chromatographic columns were selected for investigation, the peak shapes and separation of each chromatographic peak were good, and the relative retention time RSD values ​​of each characteristic peak and S peak were in the range of 0.96% to 3.07%, indicating that the chromatographic column had good durability.

[0597] 6.7.4.4 Stability assessment

[0598] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the same test solution was taken and measured at 0h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 12h, and 24h, as shown in Table 43;

[0599] Table 43 Stability Study-Retention Time Data

[0600]

[0601] The results showed that the RSD of the corresponding characteristic peak retention time was between 0.31% and 0.91%, and the sample solution was relatively stable within 24 hours.

[0602] In summary, the RSD of the relative retention time of each characteristic peak meets the requirements in all the above investigations, and the method is good. 6.8 Determination of characteristic peaks and establishment of reference spectrum

[0603] 6.8.1 Establishment of relative retention time limit values

[0604] The summary of the investigation items and validation results of the methodology is shown in Table 44;

[0605] Table 44 Summary of RSD% of each item results of the method - retention time / relative retention time data table

[0606]

[0607] In the column durability test, the RSD range of peaks 1 to 12 was 0.96%-3.07%, so the relative retention time of each peak was temporarily set at ±10%.

[0608] Final rule: The relative retention time RSDs of each characteristic peak met the requirements in all the above tests, and the method was considered good. The above 12 characteristic peaks were included in the subsequent investigation.

[0609] 6.8.2 Verification Results of 21 Batches of Vinegar-Red Euphorbia Standard Decoction

[0610] Using this method, characteristic spectrum analysis was performed on 21 batches of samples, and relative retention time ratios were calculated; Figure 73 , as shown in Table 45; Figure 73Characteristic spectra of different batches of standard decoction of Euphorbia acetosporum, including peak 8 (S): cyperiol; peak 11: 3-hydroxybajiquinone. The batch numbers from bottom to top are: CHDJ-BT-230701, CHDJ-BT-230702, CHDJ-BT-230703, CHDJ-BT-230704, CHDJ-BT-230705, CHDJ-BT-230706, CHDJ-BT-230707, CHDJ-BT-230708, CHDJ-BT-230709. 709. CHDJ-BT-230710, CHDJ-BT-230711, CHDJ-BT-230712, CHDJ-BT-230713, CHDJ-BT-230714, CHDJ-BT-23071 5. CHDJ-BT-230716, CHDJ-BT-230717, CHDJ-BT-230718, CHDJ-BT-230719, CHDJ-BT-230720, CHDJ-BT-230721;

[0611] Table 45 Relative retention time data of 21 batches of standard decoction of Euphorbia rubra

[0612]

[0613] Based on the principles of stable relative retention times and the ability to detect peaks at relatively high levels across all batches of samples, a total of 12 peaks with good reproducibility were selected as characteristic peaks. Peak 8 should correspond to the retention time of the corresponding reference peak. The peak corresponding to the schisandra alcohol reference peak is the S peak. The relative retention times of the remaining characteristic peaks and the S peak were calculated, and their relative retention times should be within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values ​​are: 0.12 (peak 1), 0.34 (peak 2), 0.38 (peak 3), 0.40 (peak 4), 0.45 (peak 5), 0.48 (peak 6), 0.60 (peak 7), 1.31 (peak 9), 1.36 (peak 10), 1.51 (peak 11), and 1.59 (peak 12).

[0614] The Chinese medicine chromatographic fingerprint similarity evaluation system (2012 version) was used to synthesize 21 batches of standard decoctions of Euphorbia rubra. The comparison of the characteristic spectra of the standard decoctions of Euphorbia rubra was established. The results are as follows: Figure 74 As shown; Peak 8 (S) in the figure: cyperiol; Peak 11): 3-hydroxybajiquinone; Chromatographic column: Agilent Infinitylab Poroshell 120AQ-C18 2.1×150mm2.7μm.

[0636] 7.5 Determination method

[0637] Accurately pipette 1 μl of reference solution and test solution respectively, inject into ultra-high performance liquid chromatography instrument, and measure to obtain the result.

[0638] 7.5.1 Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test

[0639] 7.5.1.1 Mobile Phase Selection

[0640] Methanol was used as mobile phase A and 0.2% phosphoric acid solution was used as mobile phase B for gradient elution. The results showed that the chromatogram baseline was relatively stable and there were many chromatographic peaks under the conditions of methanol-0.2% phosphoric acid solution gradient elution. Therefore, methanol-0.2% phosphoric acid solution gradient elution was used as the mobile phase for the characteristic spectrum determination method of Hong Da Ji formula granules. Figure 75 As shown, Figure 75 This is the chromatogram of the Euphorbia rubra formula granules.

[0641] 7.5.1.2 Wavelength Selection

[0642] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the diode array detector was used to scan the entire wavelength range of the test solution, and the chromatograms of the test solution at wavelengths of 220 nm, 260 nm, 270 nm, 280 nm, 300 nm, and 320 nm were extracted respectively. Figure 76 As shown, Figure 76The chromatograms of the red euphorbia formula granules at different wavelengths. In the figure, from top to bottom are the chromatograms of 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 300nm, 320nm, and 280nm. The results show that when the detection wavelength is 280nm, the amount of chromatographic peak information is larger and the chromatogram baseline is more stable, so the detection wavelength is determined to be 280nm.

[0643] 7.5.1.3 Column temperature investigation

[0644] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the column temperatures were investigated at 25℃, 30℃, and 35℃, and the results are shown in Table 47. Figure 77 As shown, Figure 77 This is the chromatogram of the red euphorbia granules at different column temperatures;

[0645] Table 47 Column temperature-relative retention time data table

[0646]

[0647] The results of column temperature investigation showed that when the column temperature was 30℃, the chromatogram peaks were relatively symmetrical and the separation was good, so 30℃ was finally determined as the column temperature for the characteristic spectrum method of Euphorbia rubra granules.

[0648] 7.5.1.4 Flow rate investigation

[0649] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the flow rates of 0.2ml / min, 0.25ml / min, and 0.3ml / min were investigated, and the results are shown in Table 48. Figure 78 As shown, Figure 78 The chromatograms of the Euphorbia rubra granules at different flow rates are shown;

[0650] Table 48 Flow rate-relative retention time data table

[0651]

[0652] The results showed that when the flow rate was 0.25 ml / min, the chromatogram peak shape was better and the separation was moderate; therefore, the flow rate was determined to be 0.25 ml / min.

[0653] 7.5.1.5 Delay Investigation

[0654] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the chromatogram acquisition time was extended to 100 minutes. The results are as follows: Figure 79 As shown, Figure 79 The chromatographic spectrum of the delayed investigation of the red euphorbia formula granules showed that the sample had basically no chromatographic peak after 50 minutes, so the sample detection time was set at 50 minutes.

[0655] In summary, the chromatographic conditions and system suitability test of the characteristic spectrum of the Euphorbia pulex granules are determined as follows:

[0656] The chromatographic conditions and system suitability test used octadecylsilane bonded silica as the filler (column length: 150 mm, inner diameter: 2.1 mm, particle size: 2.7 μm); methanol as mobile phase A, 0.2% phosphoric acid solution as mobile phase B, gradient elution as specified in Table 49; flow rate: 0.25 ml / min; column temperature: 30°C; detection wavelength: 280 nm; the number of theoretical plates calculated based on the trichol peak should be no less than 5000;

The durability of Shimadzu was not good. It is recommended to use ultra-high performance liquid chromatographs such as Agilent or Thermo Fisher. 7.7.4.2 Inspection of different personnel and time

[0698] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, two portions of Hong Da Ji formula granules (batch number: YJ04182307001-1) were weighed by different personnel (A and B) at different times (T1 and T2) to prepare test samples and perform the assays, as shown in Table 54.

[0718]

[0719] Therefore, the relative retention time of each peak is temporarily set at ±10%.

[0720] Final Rule: If the RSDs of the relative retention times of each characteristic peak meet the requirements in all of the above considerations, the method is considered good. The characteristic spectrum of the test sample should show 12 characteristic peaks, of which the peak corresponding to the cypermethrin reference is Peak S, and the peak corresponding to the 3-hydroxybamoquinone reference is Peak 11.

[0722] The proposed method was used to determine the characteristic spectra of three batches of samples of this product and calculate the relative retention time, such as Figure 91 , as shown in Table 58, Figure 91 The characteristic spectra of different batches of red euphorbia formula granules, in the figure, peak 8 (S): cyperus alcohol; peak 11: 3-hydroxybajiquinone;

[0723] Table 58 Relative retention time data of three batches of Euphorbia rubra granules

[0724]

[0725] Based on the principles of stable relative retention times and the ability to detect peaks at relatively high levels across all batches of samples, a total of 12 peaks with good reproducibility were selected as characteristic peaks. Peak 8 should correspond to the retention time of the corresponding reference peak. The peak corresponding to the scutellariae reference peak is the S peak. The relative retention times of each characteristic peak and the S peak were calculated, and their relative retention times should be within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values ​​are: 0.12 (peak 1), 0.34 (peak 2), 0.38 (peak 3), 0.40 (peak 4), 0.46 (peak 5), 0.49 (peak 6), 0.60 (peak 7), 1.33 (peak 9), 1.37 (peak 10), 1.53 (peak 11), and 1.61 (peak 12).

[0750] 8.6.1 Mobile Phase Selection

[0751] Methanol was used as mobile phase A and 0.2% phosphoric acid solution was used as mobile phase B for gradient elution. The results showed that the chromatogram baseline was relatively stable and there were many chromatographic peaks under the conditions of methanol-0.2% phosphoric acid solution gradient elution. Therefore, methanol-0.2% phosphoric acid solution gradient elution was used as the mobile phase for the characteristic spectrum determination method of red euphorbia formula granules. Figure 93 As shown, Figure 93 This is the chromatogram of the vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules.

[0752] 8.6.2 Wavelength Selection

[0753] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the test solution was scanned in the full band using a diode array detector, and the chromatograms of the test solution at wavelengths of 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 280nm, 300nm, and 320nm were extracted respectively. The results are as follows: Figure 94 As shown, Figure 94 The chromatograms of the vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules at different wavelengths are 220nm, 260nm, 270nm, 300nm, 320nm, and 280nm from top to bottom. The results show that when the detection wavelength is 280nm, the chromatographic peak has a larger amount of information and the chromatogram baseline is more stable, so the detection wavelength is determined to be 280nm.

[0756] Table 60 Column temperature-relative retention time data table

[0757]

[0758] The results of column temperature investigation showed that when the column temperature was 30℃, the chromatogram peaks were relatively symmetrical and the separation was good, so 30℃ was finally determined as the column temperature for the characteristic spectrum method of the vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules.

[0761] Table 61 Flow rate-relative retention time data table

[0762]

[0763] The results showed that when the flow rate was 0.25 ml / min, the chromatogram peak shape was better and the separation was moderate; therefore, the flow rate was determined to be 0.25 ml / min.

[0764] 8.6.5 Delay Investigation

The results are as follows: Figure 97 As shown; Figure 97 This is the chromatogram of the delayed investigation of the vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules. It can be seen from the figure that the sample has basically no chromatographic peak after 50 minutes, so the sample detection time is set to 50 minutes.

[0766] In summary, the chromatographic conditions and system suitability test of the characteristic spectrum of Euphorbia glutinosa granules were determined as follows:

[0767] The chromatographic conditions and system suitability test used octadecylsilane bonded silica as the filler (column length: 150 mm, inner diameter: 2.1 mm, particle size: 2.7 μm); methanol as mobile phase A, 0.2% phosphoric acid solution as mobile phase B, gradient elution according to Table 62; flow rate: 0.25 ml / min; column temperature: 30°C; detection wavelength: 280 nm. The theoretical plate number calculated based on the tricholol peak should be no less than 5000.

[0806] The results showed that the RSD of the relative retention time of each characteristic peak was 0.12%-0.43%. The method has good reproducibility.

[0807] 8.8.4 Intermediate precision assessment

[0808] 8.8.4.1 Inspection of different instruments

[0809] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, three portions of the vinegar-red euphorbia granules were accurately weighed to prepare test solutions, which were then measured on three different types of ultra-high performance liquid chromatographs, namely Shimadzu, Agilent, and Thermo Fisher, as shown in Table 66. Figure 107 As shown, Figure 107 This is the durability chromatogram of the vinegar-red euphorbia granules under different instruments;

[0810] Table 66 Instrument durability investigation - relative retention time data table

[0811]

[0812] The results showed that when the test samples were detected using the above three instruments, the RSD range of the relative retention time of each characteristic peak was 3.05%-44.56%. The durability of Shimadzu instruments was not good, and it was recommended to use ultra-high performance liquid chromatographs such as Agilent or Thermo Fisher.

[0813] 8.8.4.2 Inspection by different personnel and time

[0814] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, two portions of Vinegar Red Euphorbia Granules (Batch No.: 2309027) were weighed by different personnel (A and B) at different times (T1 and T2) to prepare test samples for determination, as shown in Table 67.

[0815] Table 67 Personnel and time inspection-relative retention time data table

[0816]

[0817]

[0818] The results showed that the method was stable when different people measured the same sample at different times.

[0819] 8.8.4.3 Durability assessment

[0820] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, different chromatographic columns were used: chromatographic column 1: Agilent Infinitylab Poroshell 120AQ-C18 2.1×150mm 2.7μm; chromatographic column 2: Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 2.1×150mm 1.8μm; chromatographic column 3: Waters CORTECS T3 2.1×150mm 1.6μm. The results are as follows: Figure 108 , as shown in Table 68, Figure 108 The chromatograms of different chromatographic columns for the granules of Euphorbia glutinosa are shown;

[0821] Table 68 Chromatographic column durability investigation - relative retention time data table

[0822]

[0823] As can be seen from the figure, the chromatographic peak separation of each column is good and the peaks are clear, and the chromatographic columns have good durability.

[0824] 8.8.4.4 Stability

[0825] Based on the experimental conditions proposed above, the same test solution was taken and measured at 0h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 12h, and 24h, respectively; as shown in Table 69;

[0826] Table 69 Stability Study-Retention Time Data

[0827]

[0828] The results showed that the RSD of the corresponding characteristic peak retention time was between 0.11% and 1.01%, and the sample solution was stable within 24 hours.

[0829] In summary, the RSDs of the relative retention times of the characteristic peaks met the requirements in all the above investigations, indicating that the method was good. The above 12 characteristic peaks were included in the subsequent investigation.

[0830] 8.9 Determination of characteristic peaks and establishment of reference maps

[0831] 8.9.1 Establishment of Relative Retention Time Limits

[0832] The summary of the methodological investigation items and verification results is shown in Table 70;

[0833] Table 70 Summary of RSD% of each item results of the methodology - Retention time - Relative retention time data table

[0834]

[0835] Therefore, the relative retention time of each peak is temporarily set at ±10%.

[0836] Final Rule: If the RSDs of the relative retention times of each characteristic peak meet the requirements in all of the above considerations, the method is considered good. The characteristic spectrum of the test sample should show 12 characteristic peaks, of which the peak corresponding to the cypermethrin reference is Peak S, and the peak corresponding to the 3-hydroxybamoquinone reference is Peak 11.

[0837] 8.9.2 Verification Results of Three Batches of Vinegar-Red Euphorbia Granules

[0838] The proposed method was used to determine the characteristic spectra of three batches of samples of this product and calculate the relative retention time, such as Figure 109 , as shown in Table 71, Figure 109 This is a characteristic spectrum verification diagram of different batches of vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules; in the figure, peak 8 (S): cyperus alcohol; peak 11: 3-hydroxybajiquinone;

[0839] Table 71 Relative retention time data of three batches of vinegar-red euphorbia granules

[0840]

[0841] Based on the principles of stable relative retention times and the ability to detect peaks at relatively high levels across all batches of samples, a total of 12 peaks with good reproducibility were selected as characteristic peaks. Peak 8 should correspond to the retention time of the corresponding reference peak. The peak corresponding to the schisandra alcohol reference peak is the S peak. The relative retention times of the remaining characteristic peaks and the S peak were calculated, and their relative retention times should be within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values ​​are: 0.12 (peak 1), 0.34 (peak 2), 0.38 (peak 3), 0.40 (peak 4), 0.45 (peak 5), 0.48 (peak 6), 0.60 (peak 7), 1.31 (peak 9), 1.36 (peak 10), 1.51 (peak 11), and 1.59 (peak 12).

[0842] Three batches of Vinegar-Red Euphorbia Formula Granules were synthesized using the Chinese Medicine Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System (2012 Edition), and a comparison of the characteristic spectra of Vinegar-Red Euphorbia Formula Granules was established. Figure 110 As shown, Figure 110 This is the characteristic spectrum of the vinegar-red euphorbia formula granules. In the figure, peak 8 (S): thorn alcohol; peak 11): 3-hydroxybajiquinone; chromatographic column: Infinitylab Poroshell120AQ-C18 2.1×150mm 2.7μm.
