Objective: To study the simultaneous determination method of daodi Psoraleae Fructus-Myristicae Semen Chinese drug pair for the seven ingredients, and Psoraleae Fructus-Myristicae Semen Chinese drug pair on the chemical composition of initial ownership and identification.
Methods: UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm x 100 mm, 1.7 µm) was used in the determination. The flow rate was kept at 0.25 mL/min, and 2 µL of standard and sample solution were injected in each run. The mobile phase was consisted of acetonitrile and water using a gradient elution. The UPLC/Q-TOF MS condition: Waters HSS T3 (100 mm x 2.1 mm,1.7 µm); capillary voltage 3.0 kV (positive ion mode) and 2.5 kV (negative ion mode); Mass spectrometric detection was carried out on a Waters Xevo G2 Q/ TOF mass spectrometer equipped with an ESI source operating in both positive and negative ion modes. The parameters of the mass spectrometer under the ESI mode were as follows: ion source temperature 110 °C, cone gas flow 50 L/h, desolvation gas temperature 450 °C, desolvation gas flow 800 L/h.
Results: The seven chemical markers in the selected linear range had good linearity. The recoveries were in the range of 95.07%-98.16% and RSDs were between 1.23%-1.97%.
Conclusion: It is suitable for the quality control and further studies of the herb in vivo of daodi Psoraleae Fructus-Myristicae Semen Chinese drug pair.
