    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: As a widely used toxic traditional herbal medicine, the quality of the Fructus Xanthii must be well controlled to ensure the clinical therapeutic efficacy and safety. AIMS: A rapid, and sensitive using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography to triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) in selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode was developed and validated for simultaneous quantitation of determination active and toxic ingredients form processed by stir-frying and raw materials of Fructus Xanthii. METHODS: Chromatographic separation of all targeted compound was performed on Waters ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm). Moreover, the method was successfully applied in thirty-six samples of Fructus Xanthii collected from different sources in China. The processing method was optimized through Box-Behnken statistical design and response surface methodology. RESULTS: In this work, chemometrics was able to successfully discriminate and classify among samples. The optimal incubation conditions were as follows: under heating in a pot at 295 °C, medicine at 120 °C for 11.0 min with flipping frequently. CONCLUSIONS: Therefore, the established UPLC-QQQ-MS method in combination with chemometric analysis provides a rapid, flexible and reliable method for quality assessment of Fructus Xanthii. Importantly, the optimized experimental value of the processing process provides the basis for future research.
