Separation and Purification of Macranthoidin B and Dipsacoside B from Flos Lonicerae by HP-20 and HP-SS Macroporous Resin

[Objective] This study was conducted to develop a method for rapidly separating macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B from Flos Lonicerae. [Method] HP-20 and HP-SS macroporous resin were applied to separate and purify macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B from Flos Lonicerae. The extract of Flos Lonicerae was first loaded onto an HP-20 column to enrich saponins, which were then separated by an HP-SS macroporous resin column to get pure macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B.[Result] The optimal HP-20 purification conditions included： a concentration of sample liquid at 4.8 mg/ml, a sample volume of 2 BV, an adsorption flow rate at 1.5BV/h, an ethanol concentration for desorption at 60%, a desorption volume of 3 BV,and a desorption flow rate at 1.5 BV/h. Total saponins were then separated by an HP-SS macroporous resin column which was eluted sequentially by water, 20%ethanol, 30% ethanol, 40% ethanol and 50% ethanol. Two purified compounds were obtained in fractions eluted by 40% ethanol and 50% ethanol, respectively. The two compounds were identified as macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B by13 C and1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. [Conclusion] The combination of HP-20 and HP-SS macroporous resin could efficiently separate macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B from Flos Lonicerae.

Comparative analysis of volatile constituents between herbal pair flos lonicerae-caulis lonicerae and its single herbs

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS) and the chemometric resolution method(alternative moving window factor analysis,AMWFA) were used for comparative analysis of volatile constituents in herbal pair(HP) flos lonicerae-caulis lonicerae(FL-CL) and its single herbs.The temperature-programmed retention index(PTRI) was also employed for the identification of compounds.In total,44,39,and 50 volatile chemical components in volatile oil of FL,CL and HP FL-CL were separately determined qualitatively and quantitatively,accounting for 87.22%,94.54% and 90.08% total contents of volatile oil of FL,CL and HP FL-CL,respectively.The results show that there are 32 common volatile constituents between HP FL-CL and single herb FL,33 common volatile constituents between HP FL-CL and single herb CL,and 10 new constituents in the volatile oil of HP FL-CL.

Determination of Chlorogenic Acid,Macranthoidin B and Dipsacoside B in Flos Lonicera by HPLC-ELSD

[Objective] A method for the determination of chlorogenic acid, macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B in Flos Lonicera by high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） with evaporative light scattering detection（ELSD） was established.[Method] The separation was carried out using a ZORBAX SB-C18 chromatographic column（4.6 mm ×250 mm, 5 μm）, with a simple mobile phase of acetonitrile and0.1% formic acid. Evaporative light scattering detector was employed. [Result] The result showed that chlorogenic aicd, macranthoidin B and dipsacoside B showed good linearities in the ranges of 3.00-6.40, 4.24-9.33 and 0.40-2.00 μg with correlation coefficient of 0.999, 0.993 and 0.999, respectively. [Conclusion] The method has the advantages of simple operation, good accuracy, repeatability and separation effect and high specificity and is suitable for overall quality control of Flos Lonicera.

Lonicerae Flos:A Review of Chemical Constituents and Biological Activities

Lonicerae flos,a widely used traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),has been used for several thousand years in China.As a famous traditional Chinese herbal medicine,it was used as heat-clearing drug and alexipharmic agent and was widely cultivated in Hunan province.L.flos mainly contains biologically active compounds such as caffeic acid derivatives,essential oil,flavonoids,iridoid glycosides and terpenoids.A range of biological activities has been reported from plant extracts including anti-inflammatory,antitumor,antioxidant,antiallergy,immunomodulating and antibacterial activity.In this study,the author investigated ancient books of TCM and nowadays reports,summarized the chemical constituents,biological activity of L.flos to provide a comprehensive systematic review.
