ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the analytical method for the fingerprint of Flos Chrysanthemi by HPLC and estimate the quality of Flos Chrysanthemi in various species from different habitats. Methods The gradient elution mode was applied in chromatographic separation,data can be treated by competitive layer neural network(NN) and pattern recognition be made for Flos Chrysanthemi samples of various species from different habitats.Results The analytical method of fingerprint for Flos chrysanthemi by HPLC was established,samples can be classified into five categories according to the recognition result.Conclusion The established fingerprint can be used for the identification and quality control of Flos Chrysanthemi.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the technology of supercritical fluid CO_2 extraction(SFE CO_2) on urosolic acid from Cornus officinalis.Methods The effects of pressure,temperature,time,CO_2 flow rate types,and volume of entrainer on the urosolic acid extracts were studied. The optium conditions for SFE CO_2 was determined.The technology of SFE CO_2 was compared with that of traditional solvent extraction.Results The optium extraction conditions were as follows: pressure 35.0 MPa,temperature 318 K,absolute ethyl alcohol entrainer,content 4%,time 3 h and flow rate of CO_2 8 kg/h.Conclusion SFE CO_2 excels the traditional solvent extraction in yield,safety and efficiency.
