Abstract:

In this study, in order to solve the problems of main and lateral root doping of Panax notoginseng, the method of simultaneous detection of 11 elements such as Se and Cd in Panax notoginseng was established by dry digestion combined with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) technology. The range was from 95.72% to 102.3%, the correlation coefficient r value was 0.971 98 to 0.999 97, the RSD value were 0.09% to 2.88%, and all were less than 3%. Under this condition, the five different origins of Panax notoginseng and their difference in element content in main and lateral roots were detected in Yunnan. The results showed that the content of As, Pb and Cd in Panax notoginseng was not more than 0.5 mg·kg-1; none of them exceeded the standard. FA analysis showed that the main influencing factors of the sample elements were As, Fe and Pb. The 3D and 2D mathematical models established by principal component analysis (PCA) and canonical discriminant analysis (CDA) made a clear distinction between Panax notoginseng and its main roots in 5 different production areas, and there was no overlap. The clustering analysis (CA) results were consistent with the actual production areas, and the main roots of different production areas were systematically divided into two categories. PCA and CDA analysis results were consistent. The purpose of this study was to provide a fast and accurate new method for judging the origin of Panax notoginseng and identifying the main roots and lateral roots.
