Optimization of Extraction Technology of Traditional Chinese Medicine Biminkang Based on Colligation Score / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to optimize the best extraction technology of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Biminkang and establish the HPLC-ELSD method for determination of Astragaloside Ⅳ content. This test used heat-ing reflux which preferred ethanol as solvent extraction, extraction rate as an index to extract. By the single factor ex-periment, three factors which affect extraction rate greater were selected from the solvent concentration, extraction time, liquid ratio and extraction times. And then L9(34) orthogonal test was used to design the extraction technology of compound preparation Biminkang. HPLC-ELSD was performed on Diamonsil C18 column (250 mm í 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with H2O(A)-acetonitrile(B) (0~45 min 22%B, 45~60 min 22%~32%B) as mobile phase, flow rate was at 1.0 mL·min-1. The temperature of drift tube was 100℃ and the flow rate of N2 was 2.5 L·min-1. The column temperature was 30℃. The results showed that the best extraction technology of compound preparation Biminkang was liquid-solid ra-tio of 8 mL·g-1, ethanol concentration of 70%, 1.5 h for each extraction time, and extracted for three times. The re-sults showed that the presence of ethanol concentration and extraction times affected significantly. The ultimately de-termined optimal extraction conditions were as follows. The liquid-solid ratio of 8 mL/g, ethanol concentration of 70%, 1.5 h for each extraction time, and extracted for two times. The linear range of Astragaloside Ⅳ content was from 0.87 μg to 8.72 μg. And the regression equation was Y = 1.545 4X + 5.875 9, r = 0.999 7. The average re-covery rate was 95.05%. The RSD was 2.64%. It was concluded that the optimized extraction technology was stable, reasonably practicable, and suitable for industrial production.
