Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine quality research technology, and in particular relates to the preparation of a standard decoction of Sophora japonica fruit and its quality testing method. Background Technology

[0002] Modern research has demonstrated that Sophora japonica fruit contains a variety of chemical components, including flavonoids, isoflavones (sophoratoside), alkaloids, triterpenoid saponins, amino acids, and phospholipids, with particular emphasis on isoflavones and their glycosides. Sophora japonica fruit possesses a variety of pharmacological activities, including sedation, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, anticonvulsant and antispasmodic effects, vasoconstriction relief, inhibition of endothelin activity, maintenance of plaque stability, inhibition of nerve cell malnutrition and ischemic brain injury, and induction of cancer cell apoptosis and antitumor effects. Sophoratoside, in particular, exhibits anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and immunosuppressive effects. The 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia lists sophoratoside as an indicator component for the quality control of Sophora japonica fruit. Combined with the "Quality Standard for Honey Sophora japonica Fruit Formula Granules" YBZ-PFKL-2021090, which specifies sophoratoside as a content quality control component, this study selected sophoratoside as the quality control indicator component for the standard decoction of honey Sophora japonica fruit.

[0003] The clinical use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is primarily based on decoctions. The material basis of TCM decoctions forms the foundation for disease prevention and treatment under the guidance of TCM theory. Current legal standards only quantitatively control single components, and the dose-effect relationship cannot fully reflect the overall effect of TCM components. At present, given that the vast majority of effective components in TCM are not clearly identified, the establishment of TCM fingerprinting / characteristic maps can greatly improve the technical level and scientific content of TCM quality control.

[0004] Current literature reports on fingerprint chromatograms of Sophora japonica pods mostly employ conventional HPLC methods, and these methods only target the material basis of the raw medicinal material. The indicator components are mostly fat-soluble components. They are mainly used for qualitative identification of the authenticity, origin, and quality differences of Chinese medicinal materials, and cannot fully reflect the material basis characteristics of Chinese herbal decoctions. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing a standard decoction of Sophora japonica pods and for testing its quality. By measuring key quality indicators such as the main content, characteristic spectrum, and extract of Sophora japonica pods after decoction preparation, the transfer rate was investigated, the range of the transfer rate of the main content of the medicinal material was judged, and the effectiveness of the decoction was tested, thus solving the problem that it is difficult to evaluate and control the efficacy and quality of existing Sophora japonica pod decoctions.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0069] Example 1

[0070] The preparation method of the standard decoction of Sophora japonica fruit is as follows: Weigh an appropriate amount of Sophora japonica fruit slices, place them in a clay pot, and decoct twice.

For the second decoction, add 6 times the amount of water, bring to a boil over high heat, and then simmer over low heat for 20 minutes. Filter the decoction through a 200-mesh filter, and quickly cool the filtrate to room temperature in a water bath. Mix the two filtrates and concentrate them under vacuum at 50°C until the weight ratio of the medicinal material to the fluid extract is approximately 1:1. Collect the concentrated liquid and freeze-dry it to obtain the sample.

[0071] After vacuum concentration, the aqueous extract of Sophora japonica fruit was freeze-dried to dryness. The dried extract powder was collected, weighed, and the yield was calculated. The formula for the yield is as follows:

[0072]

[0073] Ointment yield range: 36.8% to 55.5%.

[0074] The extractives were determined by hot extraction using ethanol as the solvent, according to the method for determining alcohol-soluble extractives (Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition, Part IV, General Chapter 2201). The extractives range of the standard decoction was 51.8%–67.6%.

[0075] Content determination:

[0076] Sophoroside was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (General Chapter 0512, Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020).

[0077] Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test: Octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel was used as the packing material (column length 250 mm, inner diameter 4.6 mm, particle size 5 μm); methanol-acetonitrile-0.07% phosphoric acid solution (12:20:68) was used as the mobile phase; the detection wavelength was 260 nm. The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the sophoroside peak, should be no less than 3000.

[0079] Preparation of the test solution: Take an appropriate amount of this product, grind it into a fine powder, take about 0.2g, weigh it accurately, place it in a stoppered conical flask, accurately add 50ml of 50% methanol, weigh it, sonicate it (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 20 minutes, cool it, weigh it again, make up the weight loss with 50% methanol, shake it well, filter it, and take the filtrate to obtain the test solution.

[0080] Determination method: Accurately pipette 10 μl of the reference solution and the test solution into the liquid chromatograph and determine the result.

[0081]

[0082] This product contains 26.1 mg to 56.1 mg of juglone per 1g.

[0083] The transfer rate of succinic acid content in the decoction of medicinal materials ranged from 28.1% to 52.2%.

[0084] Characteristic chromatogram: determined by high performance liquid chromatography (Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition, Part IV, General Chapter 0512).

[0085] Chromatographic conditions and system suitability test: Octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel was used as the packing material (column length 250 mm, inner diameter 4.6 mm, particle size 5 μm); acetonitrile mobile phase A and 0.1% phosphoric acid solution mobile phase B were used for gradient elution according to the specifications in the table below; the column temperature was 30℃; the detection wavelength was 282 nm. The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the rutin peak, should not be less than 3000.

[0086] 30℃; detection wavelength 282nm. The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the rutin peak, should be no less than 3000.

[0087]

[0088]

[0089] Preparation of reference solution: Take 0.5g of Sophora japonica pod reference material, place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 50ml of 50% methanol, stopper tightly, sonicate (power 600W, frequency 40kHz) for 20 minutes, cool, shake well, filter, and take the filtrate as the reference solution of the reference material; separately take an appropriate amount of rutin reference standard, accurately weigh it, add methanol to prepare a solution containing 0.2mg per ml, as the reference solution of the reference standard.

[0090] Preparation of test solution: Take an appropriate amount of this product, grind it into a fine powder, and take about 0.1g to prepare the test solution in the same way as the preparation method of the reference solution of the reference medicinal material.

[0091] Determination method: Accurately pipette 10 μl of the reference solution and the test solution into the liquid chromatograph and determine the result.

[0092] The chromatogram of the test sample should show 10 characteristic peaks, and the retention times should correspond to the 10 characteristic peaks in the chromatogram of the reference decoction pieces. The peak corresponding to the rutin reference peak is designated as the S peak. The relative retention times of each characteristic peak and the S peak should be calculated, and the relative retention times should be within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values ​​are: 0.350 (peak 1), 0.416 (peak 2), 0.676 (peak 3), 0.843 (peak 4), 0.944 (peak 5), 1.165 (peak 7), 1.223 (peak 8), 1.365 (peak 9), and 1.406 (peak 10).

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown, peak 6 (S): rutin; peak 10: rutin; each milligram of the test sample is approximately equivalent to 0.009 grams of medicinal slices.

[0094] Example 2

[0095] According to the "Technical Requirements for Quality Control and Standardization of Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula Granules," the samples used in the research should be representative, covering the main producing areas or authentic production areas of the medicinal materials to be harvested, with no fewer than three batches from each producing area. *Sophora japonica* pods are cultivated and distributed throughout my country. They are mainly produced in Shaanxi and Shandong provinces, where cultivation has reached a large scale and is the main source of commercial *Sophora japonica* pods. Based on a comprehensive evaluation of raw material quality, sustainable resource supply, and other factors, the preliminary production areas for raw materials used in large-scale production were determined to be Heyang County, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province; Hedong District, Linyi City, Shandong Province; Tancheng County, Linyi City, Shandong Province; Qingyun County, Dezhou City, Shandong Province; and Changle County, Weifang City, Shandong Province. Ultimately, 15 qualified batches were selected for research on standard decoctions.

[0096] The transfer rates of 15 batches of standard decoction of Sophora japonica fruit are shown in the table below:

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Based on the content of 15 batches of honey locust fruit slices, the content of standard decoction, and the yield of extract, the average transfer rate of standard decoction content was calculated to be 40.1%.

[0100] The range calculated using the mean plus or minus 3 times the SD is 33.4% to 46.8%.

[0101] The range calculated using 70% to 130% of the mean is 28.1% to 52.2%.

[0102] Based on the actual range, it is 35.2% to 44.0%;

[0103] It is recommended to take the average value of 70% to 130% and the value of 28.1% to 52.2% as the upper and lower limits of the standard decoction transfer rate.

[0104] Example 3

[0105] Based on the "Technical Requirements for Quality Control and Standard Formulation of Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula Granules", and combined with data from 15 batches of standard decoction of Sophora japonica fruit, the content limits and upper and lower limits of the standard decoction were calculated.

[0106] The range calculated using the mean plus or minus 3 times the SD is: 26.1 mg to 56.1 mg;

[0107] The range calculated using 70%–130% of the mean is 28.8 mg–53.5 mg.

[0108] Based on the actual range of 48.9mg to 32.9mg, it is recommended that the mean plus or minus 3 times the SD, i.e., 26.1mg to 56.1mg, be used as the upper and lower limits of the standard decoction content.

[0109] Based on the content of 15 batches of honey locust fruit slices, the content of standard decoction, and the yield of extract, the average transfer rate of standard decoction content was calculated to be 40.1%.

[0110] The range calculated using the mean plus or minus 3 times the SD is 33.4% to 46.8%.

[0111] The range calculated using 70% to 130% of the mean is 28.1% to 52.2%.

[0112] Based on the actual range, it is 35.2% to 44.0%;

[0113] It is recommended to take the average value of 70% to 130% and the value of 28.1% to 52.2% as the upper and lower limits of the standard decoction transfer rate.

[0114] A comparative characteristic spectrum was established. Based on the data analysis results, nine common peaks were ultimately selected as characteristic peaks. The generated standard spectrum is shown below. Figure 2 Using succinic acid as a reference peak, the relative retention times of characteristic peaks in the chromatogram were calculated.

[0115] By comparing the chromatogram with that of the reference standard, it was found that among the 10 characteristic peaks in the characteristic chromatogram of the Sophora japonica standard decoction, peak 6 (S) was rutin. According to the national drug standard YBZ-PFKL-2021090 for Sophora japonica formula granules, peak 6 is rutin and peak 10 is rutinoside.

[0116] The relative retention times of the five batches of standard decoction of Sophora japonica fruit are shown in the table below:

[0117]

[0118]

[0119] Retention time (min) of characteristic spectra of medicinal slices

[0120]

[0121] The results showed that the characteristic chromatograms of all 15 batches of Sophora japonica standard decoction samples showed chromatographic peaks corresponding to the retention times of the 10 main characteristic peaks in the control medicinal materials. The relative retention time RSD of peaks 1-5 and peaks 7-10 was less than 2%, indicating that the elution times of each peak were consistent among the batches. (Note: The batch number of the standard decoction was selected to correspond to the batch of medicinal materials to prove that the prepared sample had almost no effect on the characteristic chromatogram of the medicinal materials.)

[0122] The national standard YBZ-PFKL-2022090, "Formula Granules of Sophora japonica," specifies the relative retention times of peaks 1-5 and 7-10. Based on the test results of five batches of standard Sophora japonica decoctions, it is found that peaks 1 and 2 have relatively large peak drifts, generally within ±8%, while peaks 4, 5, and 7-10 have very small relative peak drifts, generally within ±3%. Therefore, the standard stipulates that the chromatogram of the test sample should show 10 characteristic peaks, and these peaks should correspond to the retention times of the 10 characteristic peaks in the chromatogram of the reference decoction. The peak corresponding to the rutin reference peak is designated as the S peak. The relative retention times of each characteristic peak and the S peak should be calculated, and these relative retention times should be within ±10% of the specified values. The specified values ​​are: 0.350 (peak 1), 0.416 (peak 2), 0.676 (peak 3), 0.843 (peak 4), 0.944 (peak 5), 1.165 (peak 7), 1.223 (peak 8), 1.365 (peak 9), and 1.406 (peak 10).

[0123] According to the "Extractives" section of the "Formula Granules of Honey Locust Beans" (YBZ-PFKL-2021141), the finished granule product is required to include an "Extractives" test item. Referring to the method for determining the extractives of the finished granule product, the extractives test results for 15 batches of honey locust beans are shown in the table below:

[0124]

[0125]

[0126] The average value of the alcohol-soluble extract from 15 batches of standard decoctions was 59.7%.

[0127] The range calculated using the mean plus or minus 3 times the SD is 51.8% to 67.6%.

[0128] The range calculated using 70% to 130% of the mean is 41.8% to 77.6%.

[0129] Based on the actual range of 56.9% to 66.7%;

[0130] It is recommended to take 51.8% to 67.6% as the upper and lower limits of the standard decoction extract.

[0131] It is worth noting that, regarding the upper and lower limits of the standard decoction extract, the units included in the above system embodiments are only divided according to functional logic, but are not limited to the above division, as long as the corresponding function can be achieved; in addition, the specific names of each functional unit are only for easy differentiation and are not used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
