  • Title: Modified secured principal component regression for detection of unexpected chromatographic features in herbal fingerprints.
    Author: Li BY, Hu Y, Liang YZ, Xie PS, Ozaki Y.
    Journal: Analyst; 2006 Apr; 131(4):538-46. PubMed ID: 16568171.
    Abstract:
    Secured principal component regression is modified for the qualitative analysis of chromatographic fingerprint data sets of herbal samples with residual concentrations. After chromatographic shift-correction and autoscaling are performed on the data, this modified secured principal component regression (msPCR) can detect unexpected chromatographic features in various herbal fingerprints. The successful application of msPCR to two real herbal medicines of Erigeron breviscapus from different geographical origins and Ginkgo biloba from various sources or vendors demonstrates that the proposed method can detect reasonably unexpected features differing from the regulars or not being modeled. From a chemical point of view, the causes have also been explained to corroborate the results. Moreover, it presents a viable approach for the qualitative evaluation of diverse herbal objects with a regular class of chromatographic fingerprints.
