ABSTRACT
@#Objective To develop a high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method for determination of aluminium adjuvant content in vaccine,and verify and preliminarily apply the method.Methods The 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatization method was used for determination. The chromatographic column was phenyl-hexyl column[Luna 5u PhenylHexyl(250 mm × 4. 6 mm)],and the mobile phase was composed of ammonium acetate solution-acetonitrile(with 8-hydroxyquinoline)(60 ∶ 40)containing 20 mg/L ascorbic acid,while eluted at a flow rate of 1. 0 mL/min with the isocratic eluent. The excitation wavelength and the emission wavelength of the fluorescence detector were 380 nm and 520 nm respectively. The column temperature was 40 ℃,and the sample injection was 50 μL. The developed method was verified for the specificity,linear range,accuracy,repeatability,stability and durability,and used to determine the aluminum content in 12 batches of vaccines. The results were compared with those determined by titration in general principle 3106of Chinese Pharmacopoeia(VolumeⅢ,2020 edition).Results No interference peaks appeared in the sample chromatogram,and the non-aluminum adjuvant vaccine components and phosphate buffer had no interference with the determination. The linearity of aluminum standard was good in the concentration range of 6. 25 ～ 100 μg/mL,r = 0. 999 6. The average results of spike recoveries of aluminum content in inactivated hepatitis A vaccine,recombinant hepatitis B vaccine,adsorbed acellular DTP vaccine and inactivated enterovirus 71 vaccine were 98. 32%,100. 85%,101. 09% and 99. 31%,respectively in the verification for accuracy. The relative standard deviations(RSDs) of the determination results of aluminum content in the solution of six samples of the four vaccines in the same batch were 1. 09%,1. 42%,0. 97% and1. 30%,respectively. The RSDs of aluminum content of four vaccine samples stored at room tempe-rature for 0,2,4,6 and8 h were 0. 82%,0. 73%,0. 40% and 0. 48%,respectively. When the ratio of ammonium acetate solution to 8-hydroxyquinoline acetonitrile solution in mobile phase changed within 5%,the fluctuation range of aluminum content of four vaccines was less than 2%. There was no significant difference between the developed HPLC method and the titration method of Chinese Pharmacopoeia(VolumeⅢ,2020 edition)for determination of aluminum content in the 12 batches of vaccine samples.Conclusion A HPLC method for determination of aluminum adjuvant content in vaccines has been successfully established with good specificity,linearity,accuracy,repeatability,stability and durability,simple operation,high degree of automation and less interference of manual factors. It can realize the determination of aluminium content in single dose,which provides an effective means for the rapid and large-scale determination of aluminum content in vaccine products and monitoring the dispensing of semi-final products in the production process.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTaking Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix（ABR） from different origins as samples， to quantitatively analyze the chemical composition and chromaticity of ABR with different processing degrees， and clarify the correlation and change law between color and composition in the processing process of ABR， so as to provide reference for the quality evaluation of processed products of ABR. MethodThe colorimeter is used to measure the chromaticity values of three kinds of processing degrees of ABR in different origins to show the color value change trend during the processing process， and the color parameters of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were analyzed by principal component analysis（PCA）， orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） and other analysis methods. The contents of eight representative components of ABR were measured by high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC）， the correlation between chromaticity and each representative component was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis， and the applicability of the selected eight representative components was further verified by Fisher linear discriminant analysis， and the wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were grouped according to the degree of processing， and 48 samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products with different processing degrees were used as training samples. Taking the contents of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural， polypodine B， β-ecdysterone， 25R-inokosterone， 25S-inokosterone， ginsenoside Ro， chikusetsusaponin Ⅳa and polysaccharides as variables， the discriminant function was established respectively， and 12 samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR with different processing degrees were back-tested to verify the discriminant function and test the reliability of the function. ResultPCA and OPLS-DA results showed that ABR samples with different processing degrees were classified into clusters， and the results could significantly distinguish different processed products. During the process of wine and salt processing， the contents of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural， ginsenoside Ro， and chikusetsusaponin Ⅳa gradually increased with the deepening of the processing degree， while the contents of polypodine B， β-ecdysterone， 25R-inokosterone， 25S-inokosterone and polysaccharides showed a gradual decreasing trend， indicating these 8 components increased and decreased to different degrees in the process of wine and salt processing. The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural content of the samples with different processing degrees of wine-processed and salt-processed products were negatively correlated with the brightness value（L*） and the total color difference value（E*ab）（P<0.01）， and positively correlated with the red-green value（a*） and the yellow-blue value（b*）（P<0.01）， and that the content of polypodine B and polysaccharides were positively correlated with L* and E*ab（P<0.01）. The discriminant functions of wine-processed and salt-processed products of ABR were established by Fisher linear discriminant analysis， and their accuracy rates in the training samples were 93.75% and 95.83%， respectively. Twelve test samples of wine-processed and salt-processed products with different processing degree were back substitution， and the correct rate was 100%. ConclusionThe trend of composition and color changes of ABR with different processing degrees in different production areas is relatively consistent， and the color value can better distinguish ABR with different processing degrees， and the color of ABR is related to some representative components in the processing process， indicating that the color can provide reference for the identification of the processing degree of ABR and the prediction of component content.

Objective To establish high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)characteristic chromatograms of Xinqingduyin Granules(composed of Taraxaci Herba,Lonicerae Japonicae Flos,Chrysanthemi Indici Flos,etc.)and content determination of chicory acid and glycyrrhizic acid,and to optimize the preparation process of Xinqingduyin Granules.Methods Using the characteristic chromatograms of Xinqingduyin and the retention rate of chicory acid and glycyrrhizic acid as indexes,we carried out orthogonal experiment to optimize the extraction process of Xinqingduyin,and studied the concentration process.The molding process of Xinqingduyin Granules was conducted by screening the types and dosage of auxiliary materials,then three batches of pilot experiments were carried out.Results HPLC characteristic chromatograms of Xinqingshuyin Granules and the determination methods of chicory acid and glycyrrhizic acid were established.The optimal preparation technology was as follows:8 times amount of water was added,the drug was decocted for 3 times,with 1 hour per time.After the extract was concentrated under reduced pressure at 80℃,the appropriate amount of steviol glycoside and lactose was added into the extract and mixed.One-step granulation and packaging were adopted.The retention rates of chicoric acid and glycyrrhizic acid in the 3 batches of Xinqingduyin Granules,which were prepared on the pilot scale,were(54.56±1.63)%and(54.96±1.08)%,and the rate of finished product was(87.47±0.49)%,respectively.The quality is uniform,and the characteristic map of Xinqingduyin Granules showed high similarity with that of decoction prepared from the same batch of slices.Conclusion The optimized preparation technology is reasonable,feasible and reproducible.This preparation can be used to obtain the granule with similar materials of Xinqingduyin decoction.
ABSTRACT
Objective The contents of 11 nucleosides and base components in 10 batches of samples from 5 provinces(cities)including Chongqing,Yunnan and Shaanxi were determined,and the differences in nucleosides and base components in Fritillaria taipaiensis were compared by chemometric analysis,and the quality was comprehensively evaluated,so as to provide a reference for the cultivation of excellent varieties and the selection of medicinal materials.Methods Nucleoside and base components were extracted from Fritillaria taipaiensis by ultrasonication in aqueous solutions,and the content of each component was determined by HPLC-DAD method.The origin was classified by principal component analysis(PCA)and hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA).Partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA)was used to determine the differentiated index components in Fritillaria taipaiensis.Then the differences in the contents of the index components among samples from different origins were compared.Results It was found that 11 nucleoside and base components differed significantly among different origins of Fritillaria taipaiensis.Principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis indicated that all samples could be clustered into 4 categories.Five characteristic components,including uracil,cytosine,uridine,inosine,and adenosine,were identified by PLS-DA.The nucleosides and bases in samples from Chongqing and Hubei were relatively high,and the quality of the samples was comparatively superior.Conclusion This method is simple,reproducible,accurate and reliable.It has screened out the index nucleoside and base components in the identification of Fritillaria taipaiensis of different origins,which can be used to initially elucidate the differences of samples between different origins.Additionally,it can better reflect the quality of Fritillaria taipaiensis,and can provide reference for the selection of procurement origin and the quality control for Fritillaria taipaiensis.
