Abstract
Astragali Radix is widely used because of its dual use in medicine and food, and its quality evaluation is of great importance. In this study, a pseudo‐targeted metabolomics approach based on scheduled multiple reaction monitoring was developed, and a total of 114 compounds with good linearity, sensitivity, and reproducibility were selected for relative quantification, and the chemical differences between Astragali Radix of different growth patterns were further compared by chemometric analysis. With the help of multivariate and univariate analysis, 26 differential compounds between wild/semi‐wild Astragali Radix and cultivated Astragali Radix were determined. Then five marker compounds were screened out by lasso regression, and further verified by systematic clustering, random forest, support vector machine, and logistic regression. In addition, malonyl‐substituted flavonoids showed relatively higher content in wild/semi‐wild Astragali Radix. Thus, the malonyl substitution was characteristic for flavonoids in wild/semi‐wild Astragali Radix. In conclusion, the application of pseudo‐targeted metabolomics and various statistical methods could offer multi‐dimensional information for the holistic quality evaluation of Astragali Radix.
