ABSTRACT
Objective To study the dynamic change of polysaccharide from Asarum insigne in Guizhou during different harvest period and its hemostatic effect. Methods Asarum insigne polysaccharide was extracted by water isolation and alcohol precipitation. We measured the polysaccharide content by UV spectrophotometry after impurity and purification and detected the bleeding and clotting time by tail cutting and slide methods in mice. Results There was significant variation in polysaccharide content of Asarum insigne at different harvest time, which was at a higher level in June(1. 78%-1. 82%). The bleeding time in mice of normal control group was (6. 73±1. 21) min,and that in mice treated with refined polysaccharide at high dose was (4. 91±1. 58) min,the difference between two groups was statistically significant(P<0. 01). The clotting time in mice of normal control group was (7. 27±2. 09) min,and that in the refined polysaccharide at middle and high dose groups was (3. 96±1. 78) min and (3. 27±1. 61) min,respectively. The latter two groups were obviously different from the normal control group(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion The polysaccharide is an active hemostatic substance in Asarum insigne and the optimum harvest time of it is in June for the clinical use.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To establish a RP-HPLC method for the determination of the content of hesperidin in Yangweishu tablets.METHODS: The samples were separated on octadecyl silane bonded gel silica column(150 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) with the mobile phase consisted of methanol-7% acetic acid solution(32∶68) under a detection wavelength of 283nm.RESULTS: The linear range of hesperidin was 49.6～892.8 ng(r=0.999 9) with an average recovery rate of 99.02%(RSD=0.45%,n=9).CONCLUSION:The method is simple,accurate,reproducible and applicable for the quality control of Yangweishu tablets.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To optimize the extraction technology of Zishen yangyin granules.METHODS:The yield of the extractum and the content of the extraction using 80% alcohol as solvent were used as indexes to optimize the extraction technology of Zishen yangyin granules by orthogonal experiment with the times of extraction,the extraction time and the amount of water added as factors.RESULTS:The optimal extraction conditions were as follows:the extraction was carried out for 3 times by adding water at an amount of 9 times,6 times and 6 times,respectively that of solid substance with decoction time of 3 h,2 h and 1 h,respectively.CONCLUSION:The optimal extraction process was proved to be time-saving and energy-saving and suitable for large production.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of the different bore diameter membranes on technological parameters of Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula and to optimize the process of membrane filtration.Methods Three different membranes were tested under different parameters of operation to observe the changes in membrane flux and the content of effective components by Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula.Results The membrane(50 nm)had the great flux,the transfering rate of stilbene glucoside was the highest;The optimum conditions:the operation differential pressure was 0.8-1.2 MPa;The operation temperature was 50-60 ℃;the membrane surface flow rate was 3.0 m/s.When the volume of filtration solution was condensed to 1/10 of former,entering the same volume deionized water into it,and when the effective components transfering rate reached 80%,the filtration was finished.Using the strong acid and strong alkali to wash it in turn,the flux could revive above 90%.Conclusion It can be obtained a good result that adopts the technology of ceramic membranes microfiltration to refine Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula.This can provide the foundation for the application of ceramic membrane microfiltration in the refinement of water extraction of other Chinese materia medica.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To observe the influence of the different bore diameter ceramic membranes on the processing parameters of Jinlida Granules(Radix et Rhizoma Salviae miltiorrhizae,Radix Sophorae flavescentis,Rhizoma Polygonati,etc.) and optimize the process of membrane filtration. METHODS: Three different membranes were tested to observe the changes in membrane flux and the content of effective components by Jinlida Granules extract. RESULTS: The 50 nm membrane had the great flux,the transfer rates of matrine and salvianolic acid were the highest;The optimum conditions: the operation differential pressure was 0.08～0.12MPa;the operation temperature was 50～60℃;the membrane surface flow rate was 3.0 m/s.When the volume of filtration solution was condensed to one tenth,adding the same volume aeionized water,and the effective components transfer rate reached 80%.Using the strong acid and strong alkali to wash it in turn,the flux can revivify above 90%. CONCLUSION: Applying the ceramic membrane to ultrafiltrate Jinlida Granule is good and useful to herb purification.
