Objective: Huamaoyan Granules (HMYG) and Huamaoyan Capsules (HMYC) are Chinese patent medicines with different dosage forms of the same prescription. Due to the different preparation process, the chemical composition of these Chinese patent medicines varies greatly among different forms, but there were few studies on the difference comparison and quality control of them. In order to improve the effectiveness and safety in its clinical application, an idea combining high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and chemometrics was put forward to study the quality control of Chinese patent medicines in different dosage forms of the same prescription. Methods: The differential markers of HMYG and HMYC were explored based on HPLC fingerprint and chemometrics including orthogonal projections to latent structures-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA). Finally, the quantitative analysis method of related components was established by HPLC. Results: A quality control method for HMYG and HMYC was established. Firstly, the chemical components of HMYG and HMYC were systematically analyzed by HPLC fingerprinting. Further exploration showed that there were 20 characteristic peaks and 57 common peaks. Then, the potential differential markers between HMYG and HMYC were explored by chemometrics, and the differential markers were screened after intersection with the 20 characteristic peaks. Finally, HPLC quantitative analysis methods for nine components were established, including seven differential markers (neochlorogenic acid, protocatechualdehyde, chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, rosmarinic acid and salvianolic acid A). The results of HPLC quantitative analysis showed that the contents of eight components in HMYG and HMYC samples were significantly different. According to the above results, the differential markers between HMYG and HMYC screened based on HPLC fingerprint and chemometrics can effectively characterize the differences between the two dosage forms. Conclusion: The present work provides a rapid and effective method for routine quality evaluation and control of HMYG and HMYC. This work also provides feasible methods for the quality evaluation and control of Chinese patent medicines with different dosage forms of the same prescription.
