BACKGROUND
[0002] The Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 edition stipulates that the base of Cicada Slough is Cryptotympana pustulata Fabricius of Cicadidae. Cicada Slough is named Cicada, which is first recorded in Shennong's Herbal Classic and listed as medium grade. It has the effects of dispersing wind-heat, benefiting the throat, promoting rash, clearing the eyes, relieving convulsions and tetanus. It is often used in clinical practice for treating wind-heat cold, sore throat, hoarseness, measles, wind, itching, red eyes, and convulsions. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that Cicada Slough has anticonvulsant, sedative and antipyretic activities.
[0003] Cicada Slough is an animal-based traditional Chinese medicine with a large amount of use. There are many counterfeit or adulterated products on the market. Common counterfeits include mountain cicadas, southern cicadas, Chinese cicadas, and chirping cicadas. They are similar in appearance and shape, and it is difficult to accurately identify them using traditional identification methods, especially after being extracted with water to form standard decoction or other dosage forms. It is more difficult to effectively identify them, especially for similar species. In order to ensure the quality and efficacy of Cicada Slough, a method is needed to accurately and quickly identify the genuine and counterfeit products of Cicada Slough. SUMMARY

[0121] III. Chromatographic and mass spectrometric conditions
[0122] Chromatographic conditions: octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel as the filler (column length 100 mm, inner diameter 2.1 mm, particle size 1.6 to 1.9 μm); acetonitrile as the mobile phase A, and 0.1% formic acid solution as the mobile phase B, gradient elution according to the provisions in Table 4; flow rate 0.3 mL per minute; column temperature 30°C; injection volume 2 μL.

[0124]
[0125] Mass spectrometry conditions: mass spectrometry detector, electrospray positive ion mode (ESI+); atomization gas flow 3 L / min; heating gas flow 10 L / min; interface temperature 300°C; desolvation temperature 526°C; DL temperature 250°C; heating block temperature 400°C; dry gas flow 10 L / min; collision energy and Q1, Q3 deviation as shown in Table 5. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was performed, and the mass-to-charge ratio (m / z) 493.77 (double charge) → 572.35, m / z 493.77 (double charge) → 798.45 were selected as the detection ion pairs. The cicada slough control drug material solution was injected 2 μL, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the MRM chromatographic peak determined by the above detection ion pairs should be greater than 3:1.

[0131] The samples studied in this example are: Jinyaliyan pills, Ganjie Bingmei tablets, Jinchenzhiyang granules, Mingmushangqing tablets, and Xiaoerqizhen pills.
[0132] The samples were identified by the identification method established in Example 3. The results are shown in Table 6 and Figure 19 .

[0134]
[0135]
[0136] From Table 6, Figure 19 it can be seen that the Chinese patent medicines containing cicada slough all show chromatographic peaks consistent with the chromatographic retention time of the cicada slough control drug material solution.
[0137] The above is the preferred embodiment of the application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, which are also considered within the scope of protection of the application.
