The invention discloses a method for detecting the content of various components in a
puffball sample and application of the method, and the method comprises the following steps: taking
puffball sample
powder, adding an extraction
solvent for extraction, and preparing to obtain a
test solution; taking alpha-
linolenic acid,
linoleic acid,
palmitic acid,
oleic acid,
stearic acid and
ergosterol reference substances, and adding a
solvent to prepare a mixed reference substance solution; respectively injecting the mixed reference substance solution and the
test solution into an ultra-high performance liquid chromatograph for detection, and comparing the maps of the reference substance solution and the
test solution; and making a regression equation by using the sample size Ln value and the
peak area Ln value of each component, and calculating the content of the components in the
puffball sample. According to the quality detection method for the puffball sample, the contents of the six components can be simultaneously determined, the operation is simple, the accuracy is high, the
recovery rate is reliable, the detection efficiency is high, and a basis is provided for standardizing the market of puffball medicinal materials and preparations and reasonably developing the puffball medicinal materials and preparations.
