Study on quality standard and characteristic chromatogram for Hirtula Roses / 药学实践与服务

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish the quality standards of Hirtula Roses for the quality control of production, supervision, circulation and application. Methods The moisture content, total ash, ethanol extract content and characteristic chromatogram of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. were determined according to the related determination method in Ⅳ-Part of Chinese Pharmacopeia 2020. Results There should be 6 characteristic peaks in the characteristic chromatogram of Rosa roxburghii Tratt., which should correspond to the retention time of 5 characteristic peaks in the reference chromatogram of the standard herbs, and another peak should correspond to the retention time of the reference chromatogram of isoquercitrin. The moisture content of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. should be less than 14.0%; the total ash content should be less than 5.0%; the ethanol extract content should be more than 20.0%. Conclusion According to the experimental results, the quality standard of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. is conformed to the national requirements of quality standards for traditional Chinese medicine, which could provide a reference for the quality control of Hirtula Roses.
