Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To study the HPLC fingerprint profiles of crude and processed Semen Cassiae so as to provide basis for the establishment of chromatographic fingerprint of Semen Cassiae.METHODS: The samples of Semen Cassiae were hydrolyzed in the 1.5 mol?L-1 hydrochloride acid and then reflux extracted with chloroform.The HPLC analysis was run in gradient elution.The whole information of single-wavelength chromatographic fingerprint,two-dimension information data at full wavelength 220 nm～550 nm and the data of 18 fingerprint peaks compared with chrysophanol were treated by cluster analysis.RESULTS:It was observed that the contents of several chemical components were higher in the crude or processed Semen Cassiae than in chrysophanol.There were differences between the crude and the processed Semen Cassiae in HPLC fingerprint profiles though they were of good similarity.CONCLUSION: The HPLC fingerprints of liposoluble constituents were obtained with good resolution under the experimental chromatographic system.Three pure chromatographic peaks of chrysophanol,emodin and physcion have been identified.More reliable cluster result can be obtained from two-dimension information data at full wavelength 220 nm～550 nm than from the whole information of single-wavelength chromatographic fingerprint or from the information of chromatographic fingerprint of characteristic peaks.
