Abstract:
To compare the quality difference between Mahuang Xixin Fuzi decoction(MXF) prepared by traditional decocting method and that prepared by two commonly used decocting methods, and explore the scientific nature of the traditional decocting method. By taking effect-toxic components in MXF as the research object, this article investigated these three different decocting methods from the quantitative determination of effect-toxic components in MXF. By using multivariate statistical analysis methods, three characteristic constituents were identified as kakoul, mesaconitine (MA) and hypaconitine (HA) respectively. As compared with two commonly used decocting methods, MXF decoction prepared by traditional decocting method had the shortest boiling time, but with the lowest dissolution rates of MA and AC and the higher dissolution rates of mono-ester aconitum alkaloids. In addition, the traditional decocting method increased the dissolution of ephedra alkaloid and accelerated the hydrolysis of diester diterpenoid alkaloids. There were differences in the content of effect-toxic components in MXF decoctions prepared by three different decocting methods, which can provide a reference for use of the classical prescriptions.
