Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To establish an analytical method to determine dehydrotumulosic acid, tumulosic acid, polyporenic acid C, 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, dehydropachymic acid and pachymic acid in poria quickly and accurately. METHODS: An UPLC method was established on an HSS T3 Column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 1.8 μm). The mobile phase consisted of water (containing 0.05% phosphoric acid) and acetonitrile in gradient elution mode, and the detection wavelength was set at 210 nm. RESULTS: The standard curves of dehydrotumulosic acid, tumulosic acid, polyporenic acid C, 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, dehydropachymic acid, and pachymic acid showed good linearity in 5.400-108.0, 2.040-40.80, 5.020-100.4, 2.120-42.40, 5.060-101.2 and 5.100-102.0 μg · mL-1, respectively and the average recoveries were 98.0% with RSD of 2. 9% for dehydrotumulosic acid, 99. 0% with RSD of 2.8% for tumulosic acid, 101.5% with RSD of 2.5% for polyporenic acid C, 97.1% with RSD of 2.7% for 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, 101.5% with RSD of 2.1% for dehydropachymic acid and 99.6% with RSD of 1.1% for pachymic acid, respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is quick, accurate, and can be used to determine multiple triterpenoid acids in Poria simultaneously.
