Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To compare the change law of multi-components in the extraction process between Liuwei dihuang powder decoction pieces and traditional decoction pieces (hereinafter referred to as powder decoction pieces and traditional decoction pieces), and to provide scientific basis for the modern technology research of Liuwei dihuang formula. METHODS Taking powder decoction pieces and traditional decoction pieces as samples, the samples were taken when soaking for 60 min, at 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60 min of the first decocting and at 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 min of the second decocting, respectively. HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprints of 2 kinds of decoction pieces with different decocting time. The similarity evaluation and peak identification were performed. The contents of 8 components including 5-hydroxyfurfural, catechin, monoglycoside, loganin, swertin glycoside, dihydroquercetin, paeonol and benzoyl paeoniflorin were all determined. RESULTS With different decocting time, the similarties between 2 kinds of decoction pieces and their respective control fingerprints R were all greater than 0.98. In the fingerprints of traditional decoction pieces, five chromatographic peaks were identified, namely, 5- hydroxyfurfural, monetin, swertiaoside, dihydroquercetin and paeonol; in the fingerprints of powder decoction pieces, six chromatographic peaks were identified, namely, 5-hydroxyfurfural, monoglycoside, swertiamarin, dihydroquercetin, paeonol and benzoyl paeoniflorin. The results of content determination showed that in the first 5 minutes of the first decocting, the decocting rate of almost all the ingredients in the powder decoction pieces was faster than that of the traditional decoction pieces; after 40 min, the contents of other active ingredients were lower than those of traditional decoction pieces except for 5-hydroxyfurfural and paeonol. In the process of second decocting, except for paeonol and loganin, the contents of other ingredients in powder decoction pieces were higher than that in traditional decoction pieces; catechin was completely decocted from the traditional decoction pieces in the first decocting, while it could still be detected in the powder decoction pieces in the second decocting. There was little difference in the total decocted amount of the 8 ingredients in the two decoction pieces. CONCLUSIONS The chemical composition of powder decoction pieces of Liuwei dihuang formula has no obvious advantages compared with traditional decoction pieces, and can not save the decocting time and the amount of medicinal materials.
