Abstract:
OBJECTIVE：To establish fingerprint of Paliurus ramosissimus total triterpenes ，and to conduct cluster analysis and principal component analysis ，and to determine the content of the main component paliurusene. METHODS ：HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Agilent PheHex column with mobile phase consisted of methanol- 0.05％ phosphoric acid solution （gradient eluetion ） at the flow rate of 1 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 320 nm，and column temperature was 30 ℃. The sample size was 5 μL. Using paliurusene as reference，HPLC fingerprints of 10 batches of P. ramosissimus total triterpenes were drawn. Similarity evaluation was performed by using TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System （2012 edition），and the common peaks were confirmed. Cluster analysis and principle component analysis were performed by using SPSS 26.0 software. The content of paliurusene was determined by same HPLC method. RESULTS：There were totally 6 common peaks in HPLC fingerprint of 10 batches of P. ramosissimus total triterpenes. The similarity was more than 0.990；one of six common peaks was identified as paliurusene. The results of cluster analysis showed that 10 batches of samples could be clustered into 4 categories，including S 1，S2，S3-S6 and S 7-S10. The results of principal component analysis showed that the accumulative variance contribution rate of primary 2 principal components was 99.430％. Comprehensive score ranking was S 1＞S9＞S8＞S7＞S10＞S2＞S3＞S5＞S6＞S4. The linear range of paliurusene concentration was 33.7-844.0 μg/mL（r＝0.999 9）. RSDs of precision ，reproducibility and stability （24 h）tests were all lower than 2％. Average recovery was 99.75％（RSD＝1.13％，n＝6）. The average contents of paliurusene in 10 batches of P. ramosissimus total triterpenes was 0.576％-0.712％. CONCLUSIONS ：Established HPLC fingerprint and content d etermination method are reliable and stable ， and can be used for the quality control of P. ramosissimus .
