Preliminary Study on the Quality Consistency Evaluation of the Classic Prescription Danggui Buxue Tang based on DASS-RTCA Method
OBJECTIVE To establish a quality consistency evaluation method reflecting the overall pharmacodynamic characteris-tics of multi-batch Chinese medicine compound preparations.METHODS Establish a drug absorption simulating system(DASS)standardized absorption biomimetic system module using a flipped intestinal sac model,and prepare intestinal absorption samples of Danggui buxue tang from different sources and batches;Drawing on the concept of consistency evaluation of biopharmaceuticals,a cell biological effect characterization module was established using Real-time cell analysis(RTCA)to monitor the cell response curves of 15 batches of Danggui buxue tang samples.RESULTS The combination of DASS-RTCA was used to extract the characteristic parameters of time-dependent cell response patterns(TCRPs)maps from 15 batches of Danggui buxue tang samples.The RSD of each characteris-tic parameter was less than 5.1%,indicating that the differences in cell effect characterization of Danggui buxue tang(DBT)were small and the similarity of TCRPs maps was high.Through similarity analysis,cluster analysis,radar chart analysis,etc.,it is reflec-ted that the quality of different batches of DBT has high consistency.CONCLUSION The quality consistency evaluation method es-tablished by DASS-RTCA can reflect the overall quality of the preparations and provide new ideas and methods for the evaluation of batch-to-batch quality consistency of traditional Chinese medicines.
