To assess the quality of Paeonia lactiflora roots by the multi-bioactive chemical markers.Total of66 Paeonia lactiflora roots samples were collected from Sichuan,Zhejiang and Anhui. An UHPLC-DAD technique was employed to quantify the contents of paeoniflorin,hydroypaeoniflorin,abiflorin,pentagalloyglucose,benzoypaeoni-florin,paeonol,gallic and catechin in these samples. These chemical components in each sample were also calculated by Principal Component Analysis( PCA).The eight bioactive components were good separated in 30 min on the UHPLC chromatogram. The correlation coefficients between peak areas and concentration for these bioactive components were not less than 0. 9990( n = 6). And their recoveries were in the range of95. 94% ~ 100. 92%( n = 6). The contents of paeoniflorin in Paeonia lactiflora roots samples collected from Sichuan,Zhejiang and Anhui were 40. 54 mg / g( n = 23),33. 09 mg / g( n = 22) and 39. 47 mg / g( n = 21),respectively. The values of PCA were 0. 4435( n = 23)for the samples from Sichuan,0. 0122( n = 22) for the samples from Zhejiang and- 4. 9850( n = 21) for the samples from Anhui. The content of paeoniflorin in biennial,triennial,four-year,five-year and six-year old Paeonia lactiflora roots were 24. 76( n = 2),37. 17( n= 16),37. 83( n = 23),39. 71( n = 16) and 37. 45 mg / g( n = 7),respectively.The developed method can accurately quantify the content of principal bioactive compounds in Paeonia lactiflora roots. The quality is various among Paeonia lactiflora roots cultivated in Sichuan, Zhejiang and Anhui on the basis of paeoniflorin content or the value of PCA,but the quality of Paeonia lactiflora roots cultivated in Sichuan is the best. Moreover, it is suggested Paeonia lactiflora roots should be harvested in third or fourth year based on the output and quality. |
