Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the quality of Amomum tsao -ko from different origins and harvesting periods comprehensively. METHODS The contents of total volatile oil in A. tsao -ko were determined by volatile oil measurement method A stated in 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (part Ⅳ);the contents of total flavonoids and total polyphenols in A. tsao -ko were determined by aluminum nitrate-sodium nitrite colorimetry and folin-ciocalteu method. The contents of α-pinene,β-pinene, 1,8-cineole,α-terpineol,geraniol and trans-nerolidol in the volatile oil of A. tsao -ko were determined by gas chromatography ;the contents of protocatechuate and vanillic acid in A. tsao -ko were determined by ulta high performance liquid chromatography. The above 11 indicators were selected ,and entropy weight TOPSIS method was used to comprehensively evaluate the quality of 16 batches of A. tsao -ko. RESULTS The contents of total volatile oil ,total flavonoids ,total polyphenols ,α-pinene,β-pinene, 1,8-cineole,α-terpineol,geraniol,trans-nerolidol,protocatechuate and vanillic acid in 16 batches of A. tsao -ko were 15.833 3- 28.000 0 μL/g,29.100 5-78.199 6 mg/g,6.789 8-35.797 7 mg/g,0.088 7-0.401 3 mg/g,0.106 3-0.408 0 mg/g,3.709 6-8.533 1 mg/g,0.259 8-0.599 6 mg/g,0.314 8-1.324 1 mg/g,0.272 3-0.576 4 mg/g,9.301 2-19.818 5 μg/g,8.180 9-27.666 3 μg/g, respectively. Entropy weight TOPSIS results showed that the top three of relative closeness rankings were A. tsao -ko produced by Yunnan Baoshan in July ,Yunnan Honghe in October ,Yunnan Wenshan in September ;the last three of relative closeness rankings were A. tsao -ko produced by Yunnan Dehong in September ,Yunnan Dehong in November ,Yunnan Dehong in December. CONCLUSIONS A. tsao -ko produced by Yunnan Baoshan in July ,Yunnan Honghe in October and Yunnan Wenshan in September present better quality.
