    Abstract:
    Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP), known as Chenpi (CP) in Chinese, is a medicinal food for health and fitness. In order to find out the characteristic activity chemicals distinguishing various cultivars of CRP and provide a reference for effective development of citrus resources, an "activity fingerprint" of CRP from 21 different cultivars was established based on the evaluation of antitussive and expectorant activities. There were 18 common peaks in the HPLC fingerprint, of which 3 flavonoid glycosides and 14 polymethoxyflavonoids (PMFs) were identified by LC/MS-IT-TOF. Furthermore, five characteristic chemicals were determined and similarity calculation with principal component analysis (PCA) was combined together to compare the similarity and difference among various cultivars. The results showed that some other cultivars were also similar to C. reticulata "Chachi" except for C. reticulata "Tangerina" and C. reticulata "Dahongpao" recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Most importantly, the peels of C. reticulata "Shiyueju," C. reticulata "Ponkan," C. reticulata "Tribute," and C. reticulata "Bayueju," traditionally rarely used for medicinal food, were highly similar to that of C. reticulata "Chachi" and rich in bioactive flavonoids, which can be considered the effective medicinal resources of CRP.
