- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To propose a holistic strategy for quality control of Chinese patent medicines, and establish an HPLC analytical method for Tongzhi Surunjiang preparation according to the strategy. METHODS: The strategy contained three steps.The first step was multi-wavelength chromatographic detection.The second step was multivariate analysis for identification and assay. The third step was to establish substitute reference substance method.The preparations were extracted by ultrasound with methanol, chromatography was performed on ODS column with gradient elution with acetonitrile and 0.1%phosphoric acid aqueous solution.The detection wavelengths were set at 270, 350, 410 and 440 nm.The radar chart, HCA heatmap, principal component analysis and cosine similarity were used for data analysis.At last, linear calibration using two reference substances, relative retention time method and PDA spectrum method were used for peak identification, and relative correction factor method was used for quantitative analysis. RESULTS: The multi-components determination method and fingerprint analysis met the method validation requirements. Data analysis showed that there were some differences among the samples of different manufacturers. Strong characteristic peaks for classification were gallic acid, chebulinic acid, chebulea fructus, sennae folium, sennae folium and crocin.CONCLUSION: The method is specific, with low cost, and could be used to accurately control the quality of Tongzhi Surunjiang preparation.
