Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine analysis technology, and in particular to a method for constructing a characteristic spectrum of Zilongjin tablets and its application. Background Technology
[0002] The quality standard for Zilongjin tablets is included in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, Volume I. The pharmacopoeia standard only includes three identification criteria and one content determination criterion, lacking a characteristic chromatographic item that can comprehensively control the quality of Zilongjin tablets. Furthermore, there are few studies in the literature concerning the characteristic chromatographic item of Zilongjin tablets, and only one patent study has investigated the fingerprint spectrum of Zilongjin tablets. For example, CN113640434A, "Construction Method and Application of High Performance Liquid Chromatography Fingerprint Spectrum of Zilongjin Tablets," identifies the characteristic peaks of different medicinal materials contained in Zilongjin tablets by constructing a reference fingerprint spectrum and a test sample solution fingerprint spectrum, and verifies the characteristic chromatographic method. However, the fingerprint spectrum in this study has relatively few chromatographic peaks, and the only specifically identified chromatographic peaks are tanshinone IIA and salvianolic acid B, both of which are contained in tanshinone. The components contained in other medicinal materials were not studied.
[0003] In addition, the construction of the feature map of Zilong Gold Flakes faces the following challenges:
[0004] (1) The complexity of the sample makes it difficult to prepare and purify the effective components and remove the interference of impurities: complex samples such as traditional Chinese medicine contain a variety of components with different polarities, molecular weights and chemical properties, which increases the difficulty of separation and detection.
[0005] (2) Difficulty in selecting high-precision detection methods: Selecting the appropriate analytical method is the key to preparing characteristic chromatograms. Commonly used analytical methods include high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC); however, different methods have different sample processing and detection capabilities, and the most suitable method needs to be selected according to the characteristics of the sample in order to improve the accuracy of analysis and detection.
[0006] (3) Standardization issues: To ensure the comparability and reproducibility of characteristic chromatograms, standardized preparation and analysis procedures need to be established; this includes sample pretreatment, selection of chromatographic conditions, and data processing methods. A lack of standardization may lead to inconsistencies in results between different laboratories.
[0007] (4) Identification and assignment of characteristic peaks: In characteristic spectra, it is necessary to accurately identify and assign characteristic peaks; this involves a deep understanding of the chemical properties and chromatographic behavior of each component in the sample. Incorrect identification and assignment of characteristic peaks may lead to inaccurate characteristic spectra. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this invention provides a method for constructing a feature map of purple dragon gold flakes and its application.
[0009] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0010] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for constructing a feature map of purple dragon gold flakes, comprising the following steps:
[0011] (1) Preparation of reference solution: Take the reference standard, weigh it accurately, add methanol to prepare a solution containing 30ug per ml, shake well, and use it as the reference solution; the reference standards are: salvianolic acid B, ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid;
[0012] (2) Preparation of the test solution: Take Zilongjin tablets, grind them finely, accurately weigh 0.5g, add 30mL of petroleum ether with a boiling range of 60~90℃, extract with ultrasonic assistance at 40℃ and 200W for 15 minutes, centrifuge at 8000 rpm for 10 minutes, discard the petroleum ether layer, and air-dry the residue; add 30mL of anhydrous ethanol:phosphoric acid:water mixed solvent with a volume ratio of 70:0.1:29.9 to the defatted residue after centrifugation, then reflux extract at 80℃ for 30 minutes, centrifuge to collect the supernatant, and concentrate the supernatant to 5mL under reduced pressure at 40℃; use 200mg / 3 A C18 solid-phase extraction column was activated sequentially with 3 mL of pure methanol and 3 mL of water. The concentrate obtained by vacuum concentration at 40 °C was loaded onto the activated column at a flow rate of 1 mL / min. Impurities were eluted with 3 mL of water, and the target component was eluted with 3 mL of 70% methanol containing 0.1% formic acid. The eluent was collected and diluted to 5 mL with 50% methanol solution. The eluent was mixed and filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane to obtain the test solution.
[0013] (3) Determination: The reference solution and the test solution were injected into the high performance liquid chromatograph under the following chromatographic conditions, and the chromatograms were recorded;
[0014] The chromatographic conditions were as follows: octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel was used as the stationary phase; acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran (35:13 v / v) was used as mobile phase A, and 0.1 mol / L ammonium acetate solution (0.5 ml of glacial acetic acid per 1000 ml) was used as mobile phase B, eluted according to a specified gradient; the column temperature was 30°C; the flow rate was 1 ml per minute; and the detection wavelength was 300–340 nm.
[0015] The elution gradient program is as follows:
[0016] From 0 to 20 minutes, the volume ratio of mobile phase A to phase B changed from 8:92 to 16:84.
[0017] 20-27 min, the volume ratio of mobile phase A: phase B changes from 16:84 to 19:81;
[0018] 27~40min, the volume ratio of mobile phase A: phase B changes from 19:81 to 23:77;
[0019] For 40-60 minutes, the volume ratio of mobile phase A to phase B changes from 23:77 to 55:45.
[0020] 60~65min, the volume ratio of mobile phase A: phase B changes from 55:45 to 8:92;
[0021] 65~75 min, mobile phase A: phase B, volume ratio 8:92;
[0022] (4) Generate a reference characteristic chromatogram: Using the "Similarity Evaluation System of Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine" formulated by the National Pharmacopoeia Commission, the chromatographic peaks that are present in the chromatograms of different batches of Zilongjin tablets are selected as common peaks, and the reference characteristic chromatogram of Zilongjin tablets is generated by the average value calculation method.
[0023] Preferably, the chromatographic column in step (3) is: InertSustain C18 4.6x250mm, 5um.
[0024] Preferably, the peak corresponding to the reference peak of salvianolic acid B is designated as peak S, and the relative retention times of each characteristic peak and peak S are within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values are: 0.20 (peak 1), 0.27 (peak 2), 0.31 (peak 3), 0.32 (peak 4), 0.34 (peak 5), 0.38 (peak 6), 0.55 (peak 7), 0.62 (peak 8), 0.70 (peak 9), 0.72 (peak 10), 0.76 (peak 11), 0.94 (peak 12), and 0.98 (peak 13), among which peak 1 corresponds to neochlorogenic acid, peak 3 corresponds to chlorogenic acid, peak 4 corresponds to cryptochlorogenic acid, peak 8 corresponds to ferulic acid, and peak 14 corresponds to salvianolic acid B.
[0025] Secondly, this invention provides the application of the characteristic spectrum of Zilong Gold Flakes in the quality control of characteristic components of Zilong Gold Flakes.
[0026] Thirdly, this invention provides the application of the characteristic spectrum of Zilong gold flakes in the quality control of Zilong gold flake production.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows:
[0028] This invention establishes an HPLC characteristic chromatogram of Zilongjin tablets, identifying 14 characteristic peaks, which fully demonstrates the chemical characteristics of Zilongjin tablets.
[0029] This invention investigated the extraction solvent and extraction method of the sample. Within the scope of investigation, the preparation method, chromatographic conditions and elution gradient of the test solution were optimized. The characteristic chromatograms obtained by the optimized method showed 14 characteristic peaks, and the peak shape and resolution of each characteristic peak were good.
[0030] The methodological evaluation of the constructed characteristic spectral method for Zilongjin tablets was conducted, including instrument precision experiments, method repeatability experiments, and sample stability experiments. In all experimental results, the RSD values of the relative retention times of each peak were ≤1.0%, and the RSD values of the relative peak areas were ≤5.0%. This indicates that the method is effective and can accurately reflect the major chemical components in Zilongjin tablets. It allows for more efficient and rapid control of the overall quality of Zilongjin tablets. Attached Figure Description
