Abstract:
Objective: To study the relativity between color and chemical composition in fruits of Schisandra chinensis by fruits' surface color value (L*, a*, and b*) and contents of active ingredients of fructus core S. chinensis). Methods: The surface chromatic value (multivariate linear regression equation of L*, a*, b* values and deoxyschizandrin, schizandrin B, schizandrol A, schinsantherin A) was established by SPSS 20.0 with mathematical statistics method, then the influence degree of the active ingredients of. S. chinensis was detected by F test. Results: The value of L* were significant negative with deoxyschizandrin (r ≥ 0.5), and other chromaticity values were very low or low-grade correlated with lignans Conclusion: The effective ingredient content of fruit of S. chinensis can be estimated by its chromatic values, and also can be used in the hierarchies of the fruit of S. chinensis, in order to provide better scientific basis of the quality of S. chinensis.
