The difference between blood‐associated and water‐associated herbs of Danggui‐Shaoyao San in theory of TCM,based on serum pharmacochemistry

Danggui‐Shaoyao San (DSS) is a famous Chinese formula for activating blood circulation and promoting urination. This study was to investigate the difference of material basis between a blood‐associated herbs group and a water‐associated herbs group. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the formula can be divided into a blood‐associated herbs group (Angelica sinensis, Paeonia lactiflora and Ligusticum chuanxiong) and a water‐associated herbs group (Atractylodes macrocephala, Alisma orientale and Poria cocos). The HPLC fingerprint of the formula was established for quality control. Serum samples from rats, orally administrated DSS, and the decomposed recipes of DSS, were analyzed by HPLC‐DAD and the transitional blood components of DSS were identified. Twenty‐one common peaks were identified in the fingerprint of DSS. Contents of paeoniflorin, albiflorin, ferulic acid and alisol B 23‐acetate in co‐decoction were significantly higher than those in individual decoction. Eleven peaks belonged to the blood‐associated herbs group (four metabolites and seven prototype components; paeoniflorin and ferulic acid appeared in prototype components), whereas six peaks belonged to the water‐associated herbs group (three metabolites and three prototype components). It was concluded that the serum pharmacochemistry is a meaningful approach for clarifying the difference between blood‐associated and water‐associated herbs in chemical composition.

Chemical correlation between Shuanghuanglian injection and its three raw herbs by LC fingerprint

Shuanghuanglian injection, a famous composite formula in China, is a combination of Flos lonicerae japonicae, Radix scutellariae and Fructus forsythiae. To develop a method to overall evaluate the correlation between the formula and its three raw herbs, the representative LC fingerprint of Shuanghuanglian injection was established from 12 batches of samples. Ten peaks were selected as the common peaks to evaluate the similarities of different samples from different manufacturers. Hierarchical clustering analysis was used as a powerful pattern recognition tool to identify and classify Shuanghuanglian injection from different factories. In addition, chemical correlation between the formula and the three raw herbs was evaluated qualitatively through comparison of their chromatograms under the same HPLC conditions. The results showed that peak 1, 2, 3 and 9 in the formula fingerprint were characteristic components of Flos lonicerae japonicae, peaks 5, 6 and 8 were that of F. forsythiae, peak 10 was that of R. scutellariae, while peak 7 was the common component of Flos lonicerae japonicae and F. forsythiae, peak 4 was addressed to F. forsythiae and it was also the product of the manufacturing procedure.     

Combinational numeral fingerprint spectra of Glycyrrhiza and analysis of common peak ratio invariableness in HPLC

To overcome the instability of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) fingerprint spectra (FPS) and to build up absolute identification standard of TCM, the construction method of combinational numeral fingerprint spectra (CNFPS) was set up. The analysis of invariableness based on CNFPS was carried out. It can be used as absolute quantitative standard to identify the difference of TCM samples. According to this method, the HPLC FPS of components extracted from Glycyrrhiza root samples by ethanol was analyzed. Stable results and accurate quality evaluation were obtained perfectly. The common peak ratio invariableness is an absolute standard in identifying TCM samples, which is better than the similarity method of the FPS.     

Discriminating five Polygonatum medical materials and monitoring their chemical changes associated with traditional process by FT-IR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate analysis

Several Polygonatum species are important medicinal materials as tonic to cure disorders in China. Because of their different medical effects, it is desired to distinguish them at species level. In addition, to ensure and control their medical quality, it is also important to monitor their chemical changes associated with traditional process. Taking the advantages of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and multivariate analysis, we developed a convenient, fast and reliable approach to discriminate and quality control these materials. Despite similar absorption patterns, each species also presented spectral differences, especially on the FT-IR fingerprint range of 1800-600 cm⁻¹. Second derivative method obviously enlarged those differences and then showed more species-specific features. These spectral differences could be used as powerful discriminating points to distinguish them. PCA results showed that each species separated clearly with their biological replicates grouped together, which indicated that the variance between species is greater than within species, therefore, these species could be distinguishable. Using this approach, the five herbal materials were discriminated successfully in their raw, processed and ethanol extracted formats. On the other hand, visual inspecting infrared spectra of samples from 1 to 9 process steps, absorbance near 1737, 1259, 817 and 780 cm^-1 increased gradually but decreased gradually at 927 cm⁻¹. Besides, spectral contour near 1050 cm⁻¹ changed sharply with process treatment. These spectral changes indicated that hydrolyzing polysaccharides into oligo- and mono-saccharides, especially glucose and fructose, are the main chemical changes associated with traditional process. This is consistent with the traditional experience that the processed materials are dark as night and sweet as malt sugar. Meanwhile, our results also indicated that their chemical constituents changed profoundly after process, which might be the chemical basis for raw and processed materials have different medical effects. Based on absorbance at 817 and 780 cm⁻¹ and the color, taste, smell of processed materials followed by energy efficacy, raw materials had to be processed more than 21 h to ensure their quality. This research shows the potential of FT-IR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate analysis to discriminate different herbs and to monitor chemical changes with process and then control their quality. This could be very helpful to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of herbs on clinical practices.
