Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the differences between the ancient decocting methods and modern decocting method of Yihuangtang by taking the dry extract rate, the content of active ingredients and the fingerprint information as indicators, so as to provide reference for the preparation of benchmark samples and the development of compound preparations of this famous classical formula. MethodAccording to the three decocting methods recorded in Paozhi Dafa and Jianming Yigou and Management Specifications of Traditional Chinese Medicine Decoction Chambers in Medical Institutions, the Yihuangtang was decocted respectively. The polysaccharide content in the samples was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometer (UV) at 488 nm, and the contents of alkaloids (berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine) in the samples and their fingerprint profiles were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the dry extract rate was combined to compare the differences of the three decocting methods of Yihuangtang. Among them, the fingerprint was gradient eluted with acetonitrile (A) -0.1% phosphoric acid aqueous solution (B) as mobile phase (0-10 min, 5%-8%A; 10-35 min, 8%A; 35-45 min, 8%-12% A; 45-75 min, 12%-17%A; 75-105 min, 17%-35%A; 105-110 min, 35%-100%A; 110-112 min, 100%-5%A; 112-122 min, 5%A), and the detection wavelength was 230 nm. ResultWhen the decoction was carried out according to the method described in Paozhi Dafa, the content of polysaccharides was higher than that of the modern decocting method and the method described in Jianming Yigou. However, the contents of berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine were the highest in the modern decocting method. Meanwhile, the number of peaks in fingerprint of the samples prepared by the three decocting methods was basically the same, and 13 common peaks were matched, and the three common peaks of berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine were identified. However, the relative peak areas of the common peaks in the fingerprint of the samples prepared by the three decocting methods varied greatly, suggesting that there were differences in the extracting effects of different decocting methods. In addition, there were also differences in the dry extract rate among the three decocting methods of Yihuangtang, and the highest value was obtained by decocting the samples according to the method recorded in Paozhi Dafa. ConclusionDecocting method can affect the dry extract rate, fingerprint information and active ingredient content of Yihuangtang, among which the modern decocting method is conducive to the extraction of alkaloids and the preparation transformation of this famous classical formula, and it is recommended to determine its preparation process by optimizing the modern decocting method.
