Analysis of chemical constituents in Artemisia argyi (Nanyang) by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS
OBJECTIVE To study the chemical components in Artemisia argyi from Nanyang and promote its further research and development.METHODS The chemical components of Artemisia argyi from Nanyang were determined by using UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and literature reports.The analysis was performed on Agilent Poroshell 120 EC-C18 column (3 mm × 150 mm,2.7 μm) with gradient elution of acetonitrile (A)-0.2% formic acid (B) at the flow rate of 0.5 mL·min-1.RESULTS Twenty three compounds were identified in Artemisia a rgyi from Nanyang,including 12 flavonoids and flavonoid glycosides,9 organic acids,1 coumarin,and 1 other compound.CONCLUSION The study illuminates the chemical composition of Artemis ia a rgyi from Nanyang.The method is accurate,efficient and suitable for the rapid appraisal of chemical composition,has laid a foundation for its further development and in-depth study.
