Abstract:
Objective: To establish the quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker (QAMS) method to determine the content of chlorogenic acid, aesculetin, isochlorogenic acid B, and isochlorogenic acid A in Cichorii Herba (chicory). Methods: Selecting aesculetin as the internal reference substance, the relative correction factors (RCF) of chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid B and isochlorogenic acid A were established respectively, and then the contents of the three constituents were calculated by RCF, to achieve the quality of chicory through QAMS. At the same time, the external standard method was used to determine the content of four constituents in chicory and compare the difference between calculated values and measured values, so as to verify the construction method for accuracy, applicability, and repeatability. Results: No significant difference was observed in chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid B, and isochlorogenic acid A from eight batches of chicory in the quantitative results by these two methods. The validated QAMS method had good precision, reproducibility, and reliability. Conclusion: The established QAMS method is suitable and feasible for the quality control of chicory.
