AIM To improve the quality control method of Zanthoxylum nitidum(Roxb.)DC.METHODS In the TLC qualitative identification of nitidine chloride,chelerythrine and toddalolactone,the analysis was performed on silica gel GF254 TLC plate,chloroform-methanol-ammonia(30∶1∶0.1)was taken as a developing agent.The HPLC fingerprints for Z.nitidum and its adulterants were established.In the HPLC content determination of magnoflorine,nitidine chloride and chelythrine,the analysis was performed on a 30℃ thermostatic Diamonsil Plus column(250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.1%trifluoroacetic acid flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 273 nm.RESULTS The clear TLC plots demonstrated good separation.The similarities of fingerprints for eighteen batches of medicinal materials were 0.484-0.983,Z.nitidum and its adulterants were effectively distinguished.Three constituents showed good linear relationships within their own ranges(R2=1.000 0),whose average recoveries were 98.9%-103.3%with the RSDs of 1.17%-1.96%.CONCLUSION This simple and reproducible can provide a new method for the quality control of Z.nitidum.
