RESUMEN
Diagnostic ions filter method was used to rapidly detect and identify the phenolic compounds in Rheum palmatum based on ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MSE). The representative authentic standards of phenolic compounds, including gallic acid, (+)-catechin, (ï¼)-epicatechin, (ï¼)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate and procyanidin B2, were subjected to analysis by UPLC-Q-TOF/MSE system with negative ion mode. Fragmentation patterns of each standard were summarized based on assigned fragment ions. The prominent product ions were selected as diagnostic ions. Subsequently, diagnostic ions filter was employed to rapidly recognize analogous skeletons. Combined with retention time, accurate mass, characteristic fragments and previous literature data, the structures of the filtered compounds were identified or tentatively characterized. A total 63 phenolic compounds (36 phenolic acid derivatives, 8 flavonoid derivatives and 19 tennis derivatives) in R. palmatum were identified, including 6 potential new compounds. The method of diagnostic ions filter could rapidly detect and identify phenolic compounds in R. palmatum This study provides a method for rapid detection of phenolic compounds in R. palmatum and is expected to complete the material basis of rhubarb.

Cinnabar could soothe the nerves and the powder of cinnabar is always added in traditional Chinese medicine or mongolian medicines. The surface-enhanced Raman spectrum of cinnabar was identified using a portable Raman spectrometer and most structure vibration information was obtained. The results show that the Raman peaks of cinnabars were located at 253, 290, 343 cm(-1) and this three Raman characteristic peaks were selected for cinnabar identification. Meanwhile, the Raman spectra of several mongolian medicines were collected. The results showed that Raman signal of cinnabar could be observed in several mongolian medicines which contain cinnabar and Raman signal of cinnabar couldn't be detected in several mongolian medicines without cinnabar. In addition, the cinnabar in the oral ulcer powder was semi-quantitative analyzed and the limit of detection could reach to 10% of mass fraction. The relationship between the doped amount of cinnabar in the oral ulcer powder and the Raman intensity of characteristic peak was fitted and the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.995 9, which validated the accuracy of the result. This Raman analysis method for cinnabar detection is rapid, simple and accurate and it can be applied widely in mongolian medicines determination.
