ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To optimize the honey-stir-fried technology of Chelidonium majus . METHODS ：Taking the mass ratio of water to honey ，the ratio of honey water to C. majus ，stir-fired temperature ，stir-fired time as the factors ，the total contents of chelidonine ，coptisine hydrochloride ，sanguinarine，berberine，chelerythrine as response values ，Box-Behnken response surface method was used to optimize the processing technology ，and valifation test was conducted. RESULTS ：The optimum process conditions were as follows the ratio of water to refined honey 1∶1.9（g/g），the ratio of honey water to C. majus 21∶100（g/g）， stir-fried temperature 122 ℃，stir-fried time 10.40 min. After 3 times of validation ，average total contents of 5 components was 10.37 mg/g（RSD＝0.23％），relative error of which with predicted value （10.39 mg/g）was 0.19％. CONCLUSIONS ：The optimized honey-stir-fried technology of C. majus is stable and feasible.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To establish the method for simultaneous determination of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d in Bupleurum chinense water extract， and to optimize its water extraction technology for electromagnetic cracking. METHODS： HPLC method was used. The determination was performed on SB-C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water （gradient elution） at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was 40 ℃. The detection wavelength was set at 210 nm， and the sample size was 10 μL. Based on single factor experiment， using extraction time， particle size， solide-liquid ratio as factors， total extraction rate of saikosaponin a to saikosaponin d as indexes， the extraction technology was optimized by using Box-Behnken response surface methdology， and compared with the results of ultrasound method and decoction method. RESULTS： The linear range of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d were 50.70-202.80 μg/mL （r＝0.999 9） and 50.50-202.00 μg/mL （r＝0.999 9）， respectively. The quantitation limits were 0.16 and 0.13 μg/mL， respectively. The detection limits were 0.05 and 0.04 μg/mL，respectively. RSDs of precision， stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2％. The average recoveries were 98.23-102.47％ （RSD＝1.80％， n＝6） and 98.84％-102.06％ （RSD＝1.60％， n＝6）. The optimal extraction technology was as follows： the extraction time of 2.50 min； the particle size of 80 mesh， solid-liquid ratio of 1 ∶ 28 （g/mL）. Results of 3 times of validation tests showed that the optimal technology included the average total extraction rates of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d were 8.42 mg/g， which was higher than that of ultrasonic method （8.34 mg/g） and decoction method （8.06 mg/g）， and the extration time was shorter. CONCLUSIONS： Established method is simple and accurate， and can be used for simultaneous determination of saikosaponin a and saikosaponin d in B. chinense water extract. The optimized water extraction technology for electromagnetic cracking is stable and feasible.
