This study aimed at evaluating the quality of the precise powder decoction pieces (PPDP) of L.japonicae Flos (LJF) compared with the traditional commercial slices with chemical fingerprint methods and DNA molecular identification technology.Different specifications of PPDP were prepared,their dry extract contents were in contrast with that of commercial slices.The three batches of commercial slices were collected,and the content uniformity,fingerprint and similarity evaluation before and after the mixing and pulverization were studied by HPLC-DAD and DNA sequence alignment.As a result,the paste rate of PPDP was slightly higher than that of the traditional commercial slices.The dissolution of chlorogenic acid of PPDP was higher than that of the traditional commercial slices.RSD of inter-assay dissolutions of chlorogenic acid of commercial slices was 11.93％,which was reduced to 8.29％ after mixing and preparing into PPDP.The fingerprint showed that the slimilarity of the fringerprint of the mixed and powdered LJF was elevated with 7 common peaks.All the common peaks were increased at different levels.In conclusion,compared with traditional commercial slices of LJF,PPDP apparently improved the dissolution rate and the quality uniformity,indicating that the boiled powder of CRP obviously presented vantages in clinic.

OBJECTIVE：To predict the active components and potential target of volatile oil of Citri reticulatae preventing and treating Alzheimer ’s disease （AD）. METHODS ：The volatile oil of C. reticulatae was determined by GC-MS ，and identified according to NIST 11.L database and manual data analysis. The active components and targets of volatile oil of C. reticulatae were predicted through TCMSP and PharmMapper database. The related targets of AD were obtained by using GeneCards and OMIM databases. Venny 2.1.0 software mapping was used to obtain the direct targets of volatile oil of C. reticulatae against AD. Core nodes were mined with STRING database and Cytoscape 7.2.1 software，and the indirect targets of volatile oil of C. reticulatae against AD were obtained by mapping and duplication coith Venny 2.1.0 software. With the help of DAVID 6.7 database，the above direct and indirect targets （i.e. action targets ）were used for gene ontology （GO）function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. Using Cytoscape 7.2.1 software， topology analysis was conducted for the network of “active components-acting targets ”of volatile oil of C. reticulatae ，with node degree value ，betweenness centrality and closeness centrality as indexes ，then key components and key targets were mined. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：A total of 40 chemical components in volatile oil were identified by GC-MS ，all of them were active components ，including D-limonene，γ-terpinene，etc. A total of 151 active components-corresponding targets and 1 291 AD-related targets were mined ，including 48 direct targets and 41 indirect targets. The above 89 targets were mainly concentrated in cell fraction ，axon，cytosol and other cell components ；intracellular signaling cascade ，response to organic substance and other biological processes ；protein kinase activity and amine receptor activity and other molecular functions ；as well as cancer pathway ，calcium signaling pathway and neurotrophin signaling pathway （P＜ 0.05）. A total of 10 key components including α-terpinene，β-elemen，thymol and （－）-4-terpineol，as well as 21 key targets such as androgen receptor ，prostaglandin G/H synthase 2，mitogen activated protein kinase 14，muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M 1 were excavated ，indicating the effect of volatile oil of C. reticulatae against AD had the characteristics of multi-component ， multi-target and multi-channel.
