标题：Chemical profiling and quantification of XueBiJing injection, a systematic quality control strategy using UHPLC-Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry
摘要：To clarify and quantify the chemical profiling of XueBiJing injection (XBJ) rapidly, a feasible and accurate strategy was developed by applying ultra high performance liquid chromatography-Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap high resolution accurate mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS). A total of 162 components were characterized, including 19 phenanthrenequinones, 33 lactones, 28 flavonoids and 12 phenolic acids and 51 other compounds. Among them, 38 major compounds were unambiguously quantified by comparing with reference standards. Meanwhile, 38 representative compounds were simultaneously detected in XBJ samples by Q-Orbitrap HRMS. Satisfactory linearity and correlation coefficient were achieved with wide linear range. The precisions, repeatability, stability and recovery were meeting requirements. The validated method was successfully applied for simultaneous determination of 38 bioactive compounds in 10 batches XBJ samples. In addition, the similarity evaluation of fingerprintings was applied to assess the quality of XBJ. And the results were evaluated by multiple statistical strategies and five compounds might be the most important chemical markers for chemical quality control of XBJ. Finally, a rapid and simple UPLC-MS/MS method was developed for determination of five markers in XBJ sample. This research established a high sensitive and efficient strategy for integrating quality control, including identification and quantification of XBJ.
