[GC-MS combined with AMDIS and Kováts retention index to investigate dynamic change rules of volatile components from Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma with different stir-baking degrees].
To investigate the dynamic change rules of volatile components from Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma with different stir-baking degrees (from slight stir-baking, stir-baking to yellow, stir-baking to brown, to stir-baking to scorch). In the present experiment, the Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma samples with different stir-baking degrees were collected at different processing time points. The contents of volatile oil in various samples were determined by steam distillation method, and the volatile compounds were extracted by using static headspace sampling method. Gas chromatography-mass spectrography (GC-MS) and automated mass spectral deconrolution and identification system (AMDIS) were combined with Kováts retention index to analyze the chemical constituents of the volatile compounds. The results showed that with the deepening of the stir-baking degree, the content of volatile oil was decreased step by step in 4 phases, and both the compositions and contents of volatile components from Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma showed significant changes. The results showed that the dynamic change rules of volatile components from Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma in the process of stir-baking were closely related to the processing degree; in addition, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma and honey bran had adsorption on each other. These results can provide a scientific basis for elucidating the stir-baking (with bran) mechanism of Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma.

Quality evaluation of decoction pieces of Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae by near infrared spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics.
To establish a fast, simple and reliable method for quality evaluation of decoction pieces of Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae (referred as BZ below) by near infrared spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics.
Twelve batches of raw medicinal materials of BZ were collected from three main producing location in China. According to the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China, these raw decoction pieces were stir-fried in wheat bran using a stir-frying machine for 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 min, respectively. The resulted 60 samples were categorized into three classes (i.e., light, moderate and dark) by experienced pharmacists according to their surface color. After that, these slices were smashed to acquire near infrared spectra and to determine the contents of atractylenolide I, II and III by HPLC method. Qualitative and quantitative models were constructed to relate the spectra to the color labels and to the contents of three atractylenolides. Various chemometrics methods, including calibration methods like principal component analysis, partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and partial least squares regression (PLSR), spectra pretreatment methods like standard normal variate, multiplicative scatter correction, derivation and smoothing, feature selection methods like particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm (GA) and other fourteen methods were compared in detail. The PLS-DA models were evaluated by jackknife tests with calculating parameters such as error rate (ERR), true positive rate (TPR), true negative rate (TNR) and F1 score, meanwhile the PLSR models were evaluated by five fold cross-validation tests with calculating parameters such as coefficients of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and residual predictive deviation (RPD).
The PLS-DA models with spectra pretreated by 1D5S or 1D9S and wavelengths selected by InfFS, Relief-F, MutInfFS, fisher or CFS performed best, yielding 0.00 of ERR, 1.00 of TPR, 1.00 of TNR, and 1.00 of F1 for all three classes. As for quantitative models, the PLSR models by 1D5S spectra pretreatment and GA wavelengths selection performed best, where R2C and R2P were all >0.95, RMSEC and RMSEP were all <0.04%, MAEC and MAEP were all <0.04%, and RPD were all >5.
The present qualitative and quantitative models can be successfully used to distinguish the degree of suitability of processed BZ, and to determine the contents of three atractylenolides, which thus are of great help for quality evaluation and control of processed BZ and other decoction pieces.
