- Abstract: Objective To establish a quality traceability evaluation method for the whole honeysuckle oral solution process by identifying and screening its anti-inflammatory quality markers.Methods UPLC/-TOF-MS was used to analyze the iridoids and phenolic acids in oral solution,and the correlations were constructed by molecular network technology.The HPLC fingerprints of multiple batches of oral solution were established,and similarity analyses were performed to identify key pharmacodynamic molecules.The key anti-inflammatory quality markers were confirmed by the NF-κB dual luciferase assay system.Further,the quantification of 12 quality markers of iridoids and phenolic acids in oral solution was established separately based on the dual-wavelength HPLC technique.The quality of the oral solution was evaluated by examining the extraction and transfer rate of quality markers during the processing of raw materials and preparations and thermal stability.Results A total of 9 iridoids and 6 phenolic acids were identified in the oral solution,and the possible conversion relationships between their components were depicted.Fingerprint analysis of 11 batches of oral liquids showed that the composition of their main peaks was the same,with a similarity of more than 90%.Among them,6 iridoids(loganic acid,secologanoside,secologanic acid,sweroside,secoxyloganin,secologanin)and 6 phenolic acids(neochlorogenic acid,chlorogenic acid,cryptochlorogenic acid,isochlorogenic B,isochlorogenic A,isochlorogenic C)exhibited NF-κB inhibitory activity,which were the main pharmacological components and could be used as quality markers.The traceability of the above 12 quality markers was investigated in a multi-batch process based on the dual-wavelength HPLC method.The thermal stability studies of the raw materials revealed that the contents of their total iridoids and phenolic acids remained stable.Still,some of them would be transformed between components.The production process of the oral solution was stable,and the transfer rates of the iridoids and phenolic acids during the extraction,concentration and preparation were over 76%and 63%,respectively.Conclusion The method is stable,reliable,easy to operate and can evaluate the full honeysuckle oral solution process,which provides an effective means for the quality control of honeysuckle herbs and preparations.
