The study developed a spectrum-effect relationship model for flavonoids in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP), analyzing 15 batches of Liujunzi Decoction to identify effective components.
HPLC analysis was performed using specific conditions to create chemical fingerprints of the flavonoids, leading to the discovery of key peaks that significantly influence gastrointestinal regulation.
Findings indicated a linear correlation between the identified flavonoids and their effects, suggesting that the medicinal properties of CRP in Liujunzi Decoction arise from the combined action of multiple components.
