Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical component analysis of Xinnaoxin, and in particular to a method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. Background Art

[0002] Xinnaoxin (Xinnaoxin) nourishes qi and yin, promotes blood circulation, and removes blood stasis. It is primarily used to treat dizziness, headaches, palpitations, shortness of breath, fatigue caused by qi and yin deficiency and blood stasis, as well as polycythemia caused by hypoxia. Xinnaoxin's main ingredients include natural rhodiola rosea, wolfberry, and fresh seabuckthorn syrup. Rhodiola rosea, a traditional Tibetan medicine, is the main ingredient in the compound, known for its benefits of invigorating qi and promoting blood circulation, dredges the meridians, and relieves asthma. Its main chemical components include salidroside, tyrosol, and gallic acid. Lycium barbarum nourishes the liver and kidneys, improves vital essence, and enhances vision. Research indicates that organic acids such as caffeic acid and p-coumaric acid are closely related to these benefits. Seabuckthorn strengthens the spleen and aids digestion, relieves cough and expectoration, and promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis. Research suggests that gallic acid and quercetin can serve as quality markers for seabuckthorn's efficacy. However, current quality standards and relevant literature only test for salidroside and betaine, making them difficult to use as comprehensive quality assessment criteria.

[0003] As a compound Chinese medicine composed of three Chinese herbs, Xinnaoxin contains complex chemical components. In the prior art, there are literature reports on a method for determining the content of seven ingredients in Xinnaoxin using a one-test, multiple-evaluation method, which has solved the problem of a single index component. However, the number of drug components detected by this method at one time is still small, and it cannot achieve the purpose of quickly and efficiently comprehensively evaluating the quality of Xinnaoxin drugs. In order to improve the quality control level of Xinnaoxin drugs and at the same time improve the comprehensive evaluation of such drugs, it is urgent to develop a method for detecting all chemical components in Xinnaoxin in a simple, fast, accurate and efficient manner.

[0102]

[0103] Example 1 Eight quinone compounds were isolated from Xinnaoxin, mainly rhamnolide derivatives among hydroxyanthraquinone derivatives.

[0106]

[0107] This example uses UPLC-Q-TOF-MS technology, with Xinnaoxin as the research object, and through combined analysis of information such as fragment ions, retention time and relevant literature, a total of 92 compounds were identified, including 20 flavonoids, 26 organic acids, 7 sugars, 6 phenols, 6 amino acids, 8 quinones, 6 terpenes, 5 phenylpropanoids, and 8 other types. It was identified that flavonoids and quinone compounds account for the majority of the components of Rhodiola rosea, and are also the traditional Chinese medicine with the most types of components in Xinnaoxin; both wolfberry and sea buckthorn have the most organic acid compounds. The identified chemical components contain multiple components with significant pharmacological activity, mainly affecting the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems. For example, flavonoids are the main active ingredients of the traditional Chinese medicine sea buckthorn, among which kaempferol has a protective effect on the heart and also has antioxidant activity; isorhamnetin, quercetin and myricetin can respectively lower uric acid, relieve liver damage and reduce antibiotic resistance. Salidroside in the carbohydrate compound is the main active ingredient of the traditional Chinese medicine Rhodiola rosea, which can excite myocardial cells and relieve damage caused by myocardial hypoxia. The alkaloid compound betaine is the main active ingredient of the traditional Chinese medicine Lycium barbarum, which has the effect of increasing the amount of protein in the body. In summary, the establishment of UPLC-Q-TOF-MS technology comprehensively characterizes the chemical composition of Xinnaoxin and preliminarily clarifies the material basis of Xinnaoxin, which is of great significance for the subsequent pharmacological research of Xinnaoxin. According to the components of Xinnaoxin, the compounds detected in this example include 34 from Rhodiola rosea, 12 from Lycium barbarum, 15 from Hippophae rhamnoides, and contain 31 partial common compounds.

[0108] It should be noted that as long as the conditions of ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry are within the protection scope defined by the present invention, 92 chemical components (Table 3) in the Xinnaoxin sample can be identified.

[0109] Comparative Example 1

[0110] This comparative example provides a method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, which is similar to Example 1, except that the extraction solvent in step (1) is acetonitrile, and the other conditions are the same as Example 1. The specific steps are as follows:

[0111] (1) Take 1.00 g of Xinnaoxin sample, grind it into powder in a mortar, pass it through a No. 5 sieve (the inner diameter of the sieve hole is 180±7.6 μm), put it into a conical flask, add 20 mL of acetonitrile and perform ultrasonic extraction for 30 min. The ultrasonic frequency is 40 kHz and the power is 300 W. Cool it to room temperature, make up the lost mass with acetonitrile, and filter it with a 0.45 μm microporous filter membrane to obtain the test solution.

[0112] (2) Same as Example 1, no further details will be given.

[0113] This comparative example separated and identified 81 chemical components in Xinnaoxin by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, which indicates that acetonitrile has a poor extraction effect on water-soluble components and can identify fewer components.

[0114] Comparative Example 2

[0115] This comparative example provides a method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, which is similar to Example 1, except that in step (2), the chromatographic column is replaced with a Waters acquity BEH amide chromatographic column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm). The other conditions are the same as those in Example 1 and are not repeated here.

[0116] This comparative example used UPLC-Q-TOF-MS to separate and identify 76 chemical components in Xinnaoxin. This indicates that after changing the chromatographic column, the retention time was delayed and many peaks were not eluted.

[0117] Comparative Example 3

[0118] This comparative example provides a method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, which is similar to Example 1, except that the elution procedure of the mobile phase and gradient elution in step (2) is different. The other conditions are the same as those in Example 1 and are not repeated here. The elution procedure of the mobile phase and gradient elution is as follows:

[0119] Mobile phase A was 25 mmol / L ammonium acetate in water, and mobile phase B was acetonitrile;

[0120] The elution program for gradient elution is as follows:

[0121] 0-2 min, 5% mobile phase A, 95% mobile phase B;

[0122] 2-18 min, 5% → 35% mobile phase A, 95% → 65% mobile phase B;

[0123] 18-20 min, 35% → 60% mobile phase A, 65% → 40% mobile phase B;

[0124] 20-22 min, 60% mobile phase A, 40% mobile phase B;

[0125] 22-22.1 min, 60% → 5% mobile phase A, 40% → 95% mobile phase B;

[0126] 22.1~30min, 5% mobile phase A, 95% mobile phase B.

[0127] In this comparative example, 71 chemical components in Xinnaoxin were separated and identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS method. The peaks were relatively concentrated, and many peaks were not eluted.

[0128] Comparative Example 4

[0129] This comparative example provides a method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS, which is similar to Example 1, except that in step (2), the mass-to-charge ratio scanning range is 200-2000 m / z, the ion source temperature (TEMP) is 500°C, the cluster fragmentation voltage (DP) is 100V, and the collision energy (CE) is 30eV. The other conditions are the same as those in Example 1 and will not be repeated here.

[0130] In this comparative example, 61 chemical components in Xinnaoxin were separated and identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS method, and no components with a mass-to-charge ratio less than 200 m / z were detected.

[0131] Compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 4, the method for detecting the chemical components of Xinnaoxin based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS provided in Example 1 of the present invention identified 92 chemical components in Xinnaoxin, which is significantly more than the 61 to 81 chemical components in Comparative Examples 1 to 4.
