Résumé
Objective: To optimize the spray drying process of Liqi Huoxue Compound (LHC) extract and evaluate the quality of extract powder. Methods: The drug concentration, inlet air temperature and air flow were used as independent variables, and the comprehensive scores of ferulic acid, tanshinone IIA, salvianolic acid B, puerarin content and flour extraction rate were used as the response values, and the test data were binomial fitting. The mathematical relationship between the comprehensive scoring index and their respective variables was established, and Box-Behnken design-response surface method combined with G1-entropy weight method was used to optimize the spray drying process of LHC extract. Results: The optimal spray drying process was a specific solution gravity of 1.08, inlet air temperature of 140 ℃, and an air flow of 40 m3/h. Under such conditions, the average content of ferulic acid, tanshinone IIA, salvianolic acid B and puerarin by the spray drying was 0.300 4 mg/g, 0.338 0 mg/g, 18.526 0 mg/g and 7.508 8 mg/g, respectively. The flour yield was 81.49%, the overall score was 94.69, and the RSD value was 0.99%. Conclusion: The preferred spray drying process of LHC extract is stable and feasible.
Résumé
Objective: To optimize the water extraction technology parameters of Yiqi Huoxue Prescription (YHP). Methods: On the basis of single factor experiment, orthogonal experiment design was used to evaluate the transfer rate and extraction yield of salvianolic acid B and hydroxysafflower yellow A by using adding water, extraction time and soaking time as factors. The comprehensive score was obtained by G1-entropy weight method. The optimal water extraction technology was obtained by orthogonal test design, and another method-BP neural network modeling was used to optimize the network model and target optimization. The two analytical methods were compared in the verification experiment to find the optimal water extraction technology parameters of YHP. Results: Based on the comparison of the two analytical methods, it was found that the comprehensive score of the optimal water extraction technology obtained by orthogonal test analysis was slightly higher than that obtained by BP neural network modeling. Therefore, it was finally determined that the optimal water extraction technology parameters of YHP were as follow: water extraction for three times, soaking for 0.5 h, adding water of 20 times, and extracting time for 3.5 h. Conclusion: The optimal water extraction technology of YHP is stable and feasible, which provides new ideas and references for the development and modernization of new drugs of compound Chinese medicine.
