Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sample determination, especially to a device for separating, purifying and preparing a sample for determining the content of triptolide in a triptolide-containing preparation. BACKGROUND

[0002] Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. is a plant of Celastraceae, and its main medicinal parts are roots or xylem of roots. It is bitter and cold in nature, and belongs to the liver and kidney channels. It has the functions of expelling wind and dampness, promoting blood circulation to remove meridian obstruction, relieving swelling and pain, killing insects and detoxifying. It is mainly produced in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong and other places. Tripterygium wilfordii has complex chemical components and wide pharmacological effects. It has been widely used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, nephritis, lupus erythematosus, diabetes and various skin diseases. Among them, triptolide is one of the main effective components of Tripterygium wilfordii. Triptolide belongs to diterpenoids. Studies have shown that it has anti-inflammatory, antitumor and immunosuppressive activities, antioxidant and antirheumatoid effects. These characteristics make it have important application value in the medical field.

[0003] But the content of triptolide in the plant of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f. is not high, and the traditional extraction process is complex, which needs to be separated by multiple extraction and chromatography. This not only consumes time and effort, but also has low utilization rate and concentration of medicinal materials, and it is difficult to achieve the ideal application effect. Passing the extraction liquid through the neutral alumina column is a relatively common method for removing impurities from Tripterygium wilfordii medicinal materials and preparations, but the operation method or steps described in the existing reports are too complicated (for example, the patent with the application publication number CN109239213A needs to go through 10 steps of "ultrasonic extraction - filtration - washing the filter residue twice - combining the filtrate and concentrating - methanol redissolution - column - acetone elution - eluent concentration - methanol redissolution - constant volume" when preparing the test solution of the test product), or the solvents used are highly toxic (for example, the patent with the publication number CN101339168A uses chloroform for extraction; "Gedan Dan, Gao Jiarong, Bao Xuemei, et al. Determination of triptolide and red element content in Tripterygium wilfordii slices from different producing areas by UHPLC [J]. Guangzhou Chemical Industry, 2020, 48(16): 91-93." uses acetonitrile solution for extraction and dichloromethane solution for elution; "Li Yungui, Qiao Yina, Zhang Li, et al. Determination of triptolide content in different parts of Tripterygium wilfordii under different interplanting modes by HPLC [J]. Anhui Agricultural Sciences, 2019, 47(23): 219-221." uses chloroform solution for extraction and diethyl ether solution for elution), or the solvents used in the whole process are complex (for example, "Gao Li, Nie Zhongbiao, Yue Xiaohua, et al. Determination of triptolide content in Tripterygium wilfordii medicinal materials from different producing areas [J]. Shanxi Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2012, 28(08): 42-44." first uses 95% ethanol for extraction, then uses ethyl acetate for elution after concentration and column, and then uses 95% ethanol for extraction after concentration). In addition, toxic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane and acetone are often used in the extraction, separation and purification process. In order to protect the safety of the operator, the column passing, elution and concentration processes are usually carried out in a fume hood, which has high requirements for experimental conditions and is not flexible in operation place. Therefore, a simple, flexible and safe separation, purification and preparation device is needed for preparing the test product for determining the content of triptolide in Tripterygium wilfordii preparations.
