Refinement of General Flavone of Sophora Flavescens Decoction by Macroporous Resin Combined with Ceramic Microfiltration Membrane / 中成药

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the refinement of general flavone of sophora flavescens decoction by macroporous resins combined with ceramic microfiltration membranes (MR-CM), and compare it with macroporous resin combined with alcohol-sedimentation (MR-AS). Methods: UV-spectrophotometry method was applied to analyze the content of general flavone of sophora flavescens. Results: The porous ratio and effect of eliminating impurity of general flavone of sophora flavescens decoction by MR-CM method was higher than those by MR-AS method, but the MR-CM method is of simple operation and short period.Conclusion: MR-CM method is better than alcohol-sedimentation-macroporous resin method in refining of general flavone of sophora flavescens decoction.
