Abstract:
Objective: The differences in the compounds between Lysimachia christinae and Desmodium styracifolium were compared in order to provide the references for pharmacodynamic differences of them. Methods: The RP-HPLC-UV and RP-HPLC-ELSD fingerprints of L. christinae and D. styracifolium were established, and the common peaks of two kinds of fingerprints were compared. Results: The HPLC-UV fingerprints of L. christinae were obviously different from the HPLC-ELSD fingerprints, and the strong peaks detected in UV were not the same as what detected in ELSD, so were those of D. styracifolium. There were 14 and 5 common peaks, respectively in the HPLC-UV and HPLC-ELSD fingerprints of L. christinae, while 28 and 18 common peaks, respectively in the HPLC-UV and HPLC-ELSD fingerprints of D. styracifolium. The similarities of chromatograms of D. styracifolium were better than those of L. christinae. Four common peaks were identified in the HPLC-UV fingerprints of L. christinae and D. styracifolium, and two common peaks in their HPLC-ELSD fingerprints. Conclusion: It is better using HPLC-ESLD to establish the fingerprints of L. christinae and D. styracifolium. The chemical constituents of L. christinae were significantly different between the different batches. However, little variation was found in the chromatograms between the different batches of D. styracifolium. The two plants may contain two same compounds with high content, which may have the function as the substantial bases of their treatments for the same indication. However, they may have their special efficacies.
