OBJECTIVE To optimize the processing technology of Epimedium koreanum roasted with suet oil and analyze its characteristic chromatogram before and after processing. METHODS The optimal processing technology was optimized by orthogonal experiments with frying power, frying time and medicinal temperature as factors using the comprehensive score of appearance traits (color+odor), alcohol-soluble extract, the contents of icariin and baohuoside Ⅰ as evaluation index, then proceed with verification. The E. koreanum roasted with suet oil was prepared with the optimal technology. The characteristic chromatograms of 15 batches of E. koreanum were established with the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine (2012 edition), and then similarity analysis was also conducted. Clustering analysis, principal component analysis, and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis were used to evaluate the differences in E. koreanum before and after processing. RESULTS The optimal processing technique for E. koreanum roasted with suet oil was as follows: first, heat 4 g of suet oil at a power of 600 W until it melts; next, when the temperature at the bottom of the pan reaches 140 ℃, add 20 g of E. koreanum silk and stir-fry for 6 minutes; finally, remove it and let it cool. Comprehensive score of 3 validation tests was 98.94 points (RSD<3%). The established characteristic chromatogram of E. koreanum and E. koreanum roasted with suet oil were calibrated with 16 and 15 common peaks, respectively. Chromatographic peak 2 was determined to be chlorogenic acid, peak 5 to be chaohuoding A, peak 6 to be chaohuoding B, peak 7 to be chaohuoding C, peak 8 to be icariin, and peak 14 to be baohuoside Ⅰ. The similarities were all greater than 0.9. Results of cluster analysis and principal component analysis showed that E. koreanum and E. koreanum roasted with suet oil were clustered into distinct groups. The results of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis showed that the variable importance projection values for peak 13, peak 15, peak 9, peak 1, peak 8, peak 12, peak 7, and peak 10 were all greater than 1. CONCLUSIONS The study successfully optimized the processing technology of suet oil-roasted E. koreanum. There are significant differences in the characteristic chromatograms of E. koreanum before and after processing. Among them, the chemical components corresponding to peak 13, peak 15, peak 9, peak 1, peak 8, peak 12, peak 7, and peak 10 may be the differential components of E. koreanum before and after processing.

Immune factors play an important role in recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA),and immune imbalance affects embryo implantation,growth,and development.There is currently no consensus on the etiology and pathogenesis of RSA caused by immune factors.Based on the theory of latent toxic in TCM and combined with the pathological mechanism of the dynamic changes of immune abnormal substances in the body,this article proposed that latent toxic is the key cause of RSA caused by immune factors.Furthermore,it expounded the pathogenic characteristics of latent toxic:combination of heat and blood stasis hidden in the womb,and latent toxic plays a role in embryo formation under qi deficiency conditions.It is established that latent toxin stagnation in the membrane is the pathogenic mechanism.Moreover,this article revealed the variable pathological changes such as the blockage of the inner membrane system and the outer membrane system.Treatment should be based on the basic methods of tonifying qi and nourishing blood,tonifying kidney to secure the Thoroughfare Vessel,clearing heat and cooling blood,promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.This article could provide a theoretical basis for TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment of RSA caused by immune factors.
