ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the technological parameters in the purification process of total organic acids from the immature flower of Lonicera japonica with macroporous resins. Methods Taking static saturated capacity of adsorption and static elution ratio as indexes, six types of macroporous adsorption resins were studied and compared to select the optimum macroporous resins. The technical process for purification of total organic acids from the immature flower of L. japonica with the optimum macroporous resin was screened by the yield and purity of total organic acids . Results The HPD100-type macroporous resin had the optimum adsorption and elution parameters. Conclusion The HPD100-type macroporous resin shows better comprehensive property and can be used to isolate and purify the total organic acids from the immature flower of L. japonica
