摘要:

本文利用UHPLC/Q-TOF MS技术建立了知母中7个主要甾体皂苷的含量测定方法, 它们分别为知母皂苷N, 知母皂苷E1, 知母皂苷BII, 知母皂苷B, 知母皂苷I, 知母皂苷A2和知母皂苷AIII。色谱柱为ACQUITY UPLC® HSS T3 柱(2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8 μm), 流动相为乙腈-水 (0.1%甲酸) 梯度洗脱, 分析时间为18分钟; LOQ和LOD分别为0.18-0.75 ng/µL和0.05-0.22 ng/µL; 7个甾体皂苷分别在一定范围内呈现良好的线性关系, 相关系数分别为0.9902-0.9979, 且日内及日间精密度均低于5%, 回收率为97.13%-101.98%。该方法快速、准确、重现性好, 适用于知母药材及知母配方颗粒中7个甾体皂苷的含量测定。

Abstract:

The objective of the research is to develop a quantitative method by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC/Q-TOF MS) for the analysis of seven major steroidal saponins (timosaponin N, timosaponin E1, timosaponin BII, timosaponin B, anemarrhenasaponin I, anemarrhenasaponin A2, and timosaponin AIII) in Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bge. The complete separation of these seven steroidal saponins was achieved within 18 min with an ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 column using an acetonitrile-water (contain 0.1% formic acid) gradient system. The limits of quantitation (LOQ), 0.18-0.75 ng/µL for seven steroidal saponins, were determined experimentally. The limits of detection (LOD) were found to be 0.05-0.22 ng/µL for these saponins. The correlation coefficients (r2) for calibration curves varied from 0.9902 to 0.9979. This method showed good repeatability for the quantification of these saponins in rhizomes of A. asphodeloides, with intra-day and inter-day variations of less than 5.0% for seven steroidal saponins. The recoveries of seven steroidal saponins were from 97.13% to 101.98%. The validated method was successfully applied to quantifying seven steroidal saponins in various sources of A. asphodeloides (different collecting places or processing methods) and Zhimu concentrate-granules (ZMCG).
