2. Validation of a New Optimized Method for the Determination of Saikosaponin in Bupleurum Chinense DC. by Liquid Chromatography Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (LC-TOF/MS) Xuemei Qin, Yuanyuan Li, Xuehong Wei, Xiaoqing Guo, Lizeng Zhang School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Shanxi University, Taiyuan 030006, China Abstract:Objective: To establish a new optimized method for the determination of Saikosaponin in Bupleurum chinense DC. and validate the mechanism of the acidification reaction. Method: An acidification reaction mechanism was investigated and validated by LC-TOF/MS technique. Some possible effects were discussed in detail, such as temperature, reaction time, acidity and quantity of base. Saikosaponin a(SSa) and Saikosaponin d(SSd) were determined by HPLC coupled with UV detector at 240 and 250nm with a mobile phase of acetonitrile - water (40:60, v:v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1on a Hypersil ODS C18 column. Results:. The extraction was treated by 4%HCl-CH3OH. Temperature and acidity had some influence on the product of acidification reaction. The reaction was stopped immediately when 2% KOH-CH3OH was added.Two major derivatives SSaand SSd were quantified. • Acidification Reaction Equation: • The HPLC Picture of Bupleurum Chinense DC. As shown in Eq. (1) and (2), SSa turns to different products in different temperature. When the reaction temperature was down to 40℃, SSa turned to SSb1 only; when it was up to 40℃ and down to 80℃, SSa would turn to SSb1 and SSg. Eq. (3) shows that SSd turns to SSb2 only. The reaction condition was at room temperature (25℃), 4% HCl-methanol, 4 hours, and acid : alkali (1:1.5). The UV-HPLC system consisted of a Hypersil ODS-C18 column (200 mm×4.6 mm), mobile phases were CH3CN and H2O (40: 60), the effluent was delivered at 1.0 mL/min, and the UV absorbance was monitored at 240 nm and 250 nm. • The TOF/MS Picture of Bupleurum Chinense DC. TOF-MS data were recorded with an Agilent G1969A LC/MSD-TOF-MS equipped with Spray electro-spray ionization source. A generic positive electro-spray ionization method was used. Capillary: 4000v, sample cone: 100v, extraction cone voltages: 250V, desolvation: 11 L/min, nebulization flows: 55 psig, gas temperatures: 340℃. An Alltima ODS-C18 column (4.6×250 mm) was used. The LC mobile phases were CH3CN for solvent A and CH3COOH/H2O (1:1000, v/v) for solvent B. Conclusion: A rapid, accurate and sensitive HPLC method was set up for determining the content of saikosaponins. Validation result was consist with the present report.SSa and SSd could be regarded as the main components that determine the quality of the phytomedicine.
