Abstract:Objective To compare and evaluate constituents of Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from different places. Methods We analyzed 10 kinds of Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from different places. The data were processed by PCA of chemometrics and the characteristic constituents of Fructus cirri Sarcodactylis from different places were measured. Results Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from Fujian, Anhui, and Jiangsu had similar chemical constituents; the constituents ofFructus citri Sarcodactylis from Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guangxi were affinibus, and the constituents of Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from Chaozhou, Meizhou, and Zhaoqing of Guangdong province were also close to one another; Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from Zhejiang was distinctive from the others. At last, 9 compounds which had more contribution value in Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from different origins were found. Conclusion There distinc- tion may be related to the habitat in the constituents of Fructus citri Sarcodactylis from 10 different origins. Rapid analysis and identification provide experimental basis for the quality control ofFructus citri Sarcodactylis.
