Abstract:

A method for determination of atractylolide Ⅰ, atractylolide Ⅱ and atractylolide Ⅲ in Atractylodes lancea (Thunb.) DC. by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed and validated. Ion pairs with high ionization effect were obtained via feature scan of mass spectrometry. The samples were extracted with methanol at room temperature, the liquid-solid ratio was 20 mL·g-1, and the ultrasonic extraction time was 45 min. The extraction amount of the three atractylolides reached a high level, which were 621.33、201.32 and 275.97 μg·g-1 respectively; The recoveries of the three atractylodes were in the range of 85.7%-106.2% with the relative standard deviations of 6.0%-9.7%. The detection limit and quantification limit of the method are 18.2-32.2 μg·L-1 and 61.0-111.2 μg·L-1, respectively. This method can be suitable for the simultaneous analysis of three atractylodes in Atractylodes lancea.
