RESUMEN
Objective To optimize the process conditions of the oil extraction ofseabuckthorn oil and to evaluate its antioxidant activity by anti-free radical action.Methods The extraction time and particle size of sea-buckseed oil were optimized by using the response surface software design-expert.Its antio xidant activity was studied through its anti-dpph free radical reaction.Results The best process of seabuckthorn seed oil was extracting time 3 h,material liquid than 1:8,extraction temperature 80 C,about 30 mesh size,the yield is highest at 11.13％.The optimum reaction time was 8 min in control,and with the increase of concentration,seabuckthorn oil antioxidant activity increased,when the addition amount of 4.00 ml sample,clearance rate as high as 77.62％.Conclusions This method is simple and reliable,the extraction rate is high,and the test results show that the oil has obvious anti-oxidative effect,which can be used as whitening and wrinkling products to delay the aging of human body.
RESUMEN
AIM: To establish an HPLC method for determining sophocarpine,sophoridine and oxymatrine in Sophora flavescens Ait,so as to investigate their contents in different years and different parts. METHODS: An Elite Hypersil NH2 column(250 mm ? 4. 6 mm,5 ?m) was used with the mobile phase being acetonitrile-absolute alcohol-3% phosphoric acid solution(82 ∶ 10 ∶ 8),flow rate being 1 mL/min,determinating wavelength being 220 nm,the column temperature being 26 ℃,The injection volume was 5 ?L. RESULTS: The calibration curves of sophocarpine,sophoridine and oxymatrine were in good linearity over the ranges of 0. 004 99 - 0. 149 7 ?g(r = 0. 999 9),0. 025 08 - 0. 752 25 ?g(r = 0. 999 9),0. 075 38 - 2. 261 25 ?g(r = 0. 999 9); and the average recovery of sophocarpine,sophoridine and oxymatrine was 99. 91% ,99. 26% ,100. 27% with RSD of 1. 11% , 0. 82% ,2. 18% respectively. CONCLUSION: The HPLC method shows a good separation,reproducibility and accuracy,there are obvious differences in the contents of three alkaloids in different years and different parts of Sophora flavescens Ait. The results provide important data for quality evaluation and utilization of Sophora flavescens materials.
