Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To provide reference for quality control of Gentiana rhodantha. METHODS Taking 52 batches of G. rhodantha as subject, ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) fingerprint was adopted. The similarity of 52 batches of medicinal materials samples was evaluated by the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicine (2004A edition); the content of mangiferin was determined; chemometric analyses [cluster analysis, principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA)] were performed. RESULTS UPLC fingerprints of 52 batches of G. rhodantha were established, 17 common peaks were identified, and 6 of them were identified, which were loganic acid (peak 1), neomangiferin (peak 3), swertiamarin (peak 5), dangyin (peak 6), mangiferin (peak 7) and isoorientin (peak 9). The similarities of 52 batches of medicinal materials samples were all greater than 0.9; cluster analysis showed that S1-S46, S48-S52 clustered into one class, and S47 alone; PCA results showed that the cumulative variance contribution rate of the first six principal components was 82.928%; OPLS-DA results showed that the corresponding components of swertiamarin, mangiferin and chemical composition represented by peak 4, 14, 15, 16 were the main iconic components affecting the quality differences of G. rhodantha medicinal materials. The contents of mangiferin in 52 batches of medicinal material samples ranged from 18.2 to 101.0 mg/g, mostly in accordance with 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. CONCLUSIONS The established UPLC fingerprint and chemometric analysis methods combined with content determination method of mangiferin can comprehensively evaluate the quality of G. rhodantha.
