ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To optimize ultrasonic extraction and purification technology of solanesol from tobacco leaf. METH-ODS:Using extraction rate and transport rate of solanesol as indexes,single factor test was used to investigate liquid-solid ratio, ultrasonic extraction temperature and time,ultrasonic power and extraction times,and the amount of soap alkali lye(volume ratio of soap alkali lye to extraction liquid),acidizing fluids (volume ratio of acidizing fluids to soap alkali lye extract),extraction times of purification technology. Optimized technology was validated,and the purity of solanesol was calculated;the amount of ex-tracted solanesol was compared between this method and traditional extraction method (spending 30 h),solvent continuous cyclic extraction (spending 5-6 h). RESULTS:Optimized extraction technology was as follows as volume ratio of soap alkali lye to ex-traction liquid 1∶14,ultrasonic extraction temperature 70 ℃,ultrasonic extraction time 60 min,ultrasonic power 120 W,extract-ing for 3 times;optimized purification technology was as follows as volume ratio of soap alkali lye to extraction liquid 2∶35,vol-ume ratio of acidizing fluids to soap alkali lye extract 2∶14,extracting for 4 times. In validation test,extraction rate,transport rate and purity were 92.45%(RSD=0.46%,n=3),79.88%(RSD=0.30%,n=3)and 55.86%(RSD=0.40%,n=3). The amount of solanesol extracted with 3 methods were 52.22,45.22 and 26.10 mg/g. CONCLUSIONS:The optimized technology is simple and stable,costs less time and saves source with high extraction amount and purity,which is suitable for production,extraction and purification of solanesol from tobacco leaf.
ABSTRACT
CoQ10 has been used not only as a medicine but also as food supplements because of its various physiological and biochemical activities. A full-factorial central composite design and response surface methodology were used for optimizing three precursors Solanesol, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and methionine to maximize the production of CoQ10 by Rhodopseudomonas palustris J001. The optimization of the model predicted a maximum response 40.6 [(mg CoQ10)(g dried biomass)-1] CoQ10 production with 124.8 mg l-1 Solanesol, 267.7 mg l-14-hydroxybenzoic acid and 130.2 mg l-1 methionine, respectively. A new combination was prepared according to the result. The observed response was 40.5 ± 0.2 [(mg CoQ10)(g dried biomass)-1] and was 109.8%higher than in the control with no addition of the three precursors.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To develop a method for the determination of solanesol and the related impurities in salanesol extraction by HPLC-MS. METHODS: A C18 column was used as analytical column with column temperature set at 25 ℃; the mobile phase was methanol-ethanol (50∶50) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL?min-1. The mass spectrometer equipped with APCI, and the ion source for chemical ionization was operated in negative mode. The detector voltage was set at 1.6 kV, heat block temperature at 200 ℃, CDL temperature at 250 ℃, and nitrogen was used as drying gas with a flow rate of 2.5 L?min-1. The scanning mass/charge ratio range was 150～800 m/z. RESULTS: The calibration curve for solanesol was linear over the concentration range of 0.006～114.0 ?g?mL-1(r=0.999 8), and the average recovery was 99.3%(RSD=1.6%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS: The HPLC-MS method is simple, rapid, sensitive, accurate, and suitable for the determination of the main components and related impurities in salanesol extraction.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To discuss the technique for preparing high-purity solanesol from tobacco. METHODS:The pre-treated tobacco leaves were extracted with mixed solvent of petroleum ether and ethanol,and saponified to obtain solanesol extract; The solanesol extract got through redissolution and dewaxing,then crystallized in the temperatare of -18 ℃; Finally purified by macroporous resin(YPR-Ⅱ,D-1300,HZ-816,HZ-802). RESULTS:The ratio of mixed solvent of petroleum ether and ethanol was 1 ∶ 4,ratio of liquid to materials was 1 ∶ 12,solanesol purity was about 32% after saponification,then crystallization made the purity up to 63. 4% ,finally purified through macroporous resin,the solanesol purity reached above 93. 6%. CONCLUSION:Through the general solvent extraction,saponification,crystallization and macroporous resin adsorption process,the solanesol purity of the product reaches higher than commonly expected values.
