Optimization of Extraction Process for Arctiin and Arctigenin inArctium lappaL. Based on Central Composite Design and Response Surface Methodology / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

This study was aimed to optimize the extraction process of double-marker components for Arctium lappa L. The central composite design and response surface methodology was used. According to 3 main factors, the extraction rates of arctiin and arctigenin was used as evaluation indexes. Multiple linear regression and two-order polynomial equation were used. The binomial fitting model was performed in the optimization of arctiin and arctigenin extraction technology. The results showed that the indentified optimized extraction technology of arctiin and arctigenin was 70% ethanol, 24-fold, ultrasonic solvent extraction for 15 minutes. It was concluded that this technology was able to extract large amount of arctiin and arctigenin, which provided experiment evidences for arctiin and arctigenin preparation. It also provided references for the development and utilization of arctiin and arctigenin.

Optimization of Extraction Technology for Total Saponins of Ardisia Crenata by Singlefactor Experiment Combined with Response Surface Methodology / 医药导报

Objective To optimize the extraction process of Ardisia crenata based on the content of total saponins and to provide a basis for the Ardisia crenata study. Methods Based on the results of the single-factor tests and the Box-Behnken central composite experimental design principles, a response surface methodology which has three factors and three levels was designed to optimize the extraction process of Ardisia crenata based on the content of saponins. Results A maximal extraction yield of total saponins reached 2. 29% under the optimal conditions as follows:70% alcohol was used as extraction solvent with the material to liquid ratio of 116, the extraction time was 3 h at 70 ℃. Conclusion The optimized extraction process is accurate, reliable and practically valuable.

Optimization of supercritical fluid extraction of paeoniflorin by response surface methodology / 中成药

AIM: To develop a method for optimizing of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of paeoniflorin. METHODS: On the basis of one-factor test and the Box-Behnken central-composite design response surface with 3 factors and 3 levels was adopted. A second order quadratic equation for SFE of paeoniflorin was built. Response surface and contour were graphed with the extraction rate of paeoniflorin as the response value. Based on the analysis of the response surface plots and their corresponding contour plots,the effects of extraction pressure,extraction temperature,and methanol concentration were explored. RESULTS: By using the new method discussed above, the optimum extraction condition was obtained as follows: 18. 9 MPa extraction pressure,extraction cosolvent temperature 59. 9 ℃,68. 5% methanol was chosen as cosolvent with the flow rate of 0. 4 mL/min,and extraction time 60 min. CONCLUSION: Under the optimized condition,extraction rate of paeoniflorin on theoretical value is 7. 85 mg/g.
