ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To determine the content of phenolic acids from Anemone altica,and optimize its extraction technolo-gy. METHODS:HPLC was used to determine the contents of mono-ferulyl tartaric acid and ferulic acid from A. altica;using the total contents of 2 index components as index,volume fraction of extraction solvent,extraction solvent volume,extraction times and extraction time as factors,orthogonal test was used to optimize extraction technology,and verification test was conducted. RE-SULTS:The contents of mono-ferulyl tartaric acid and ferulic acid were 0.059%,0.0025%,respectively;the optimal extraction technology was as follow as 30% ethanol 600 mL added to 20 g medicinal material,extracted twice,90 min every time. In verifi-cation test,the average contents of 2 components in extract were 0.2971%(RSD=3.64%,n=3),0.0041%(RSD=5.11%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:A method for contents determination of mono-ferulyl tartaric acid and ferulic acid from A. altica is estab-lished;optimized extraction technology is stable and feasible.
