Optimization of Ethanol Extraction Technology ofLichong ShengsuiDecoction by Multi-index Orthogonal Test / 中国中医药信息杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To optimize the ethanol extraction technology ofLichong ShengsuiDecoction.Methods An L9(34) orthogonal test was used in the study. The extraction rates of calycosin glycoside, icariin, baohuosideⅠ, ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Re, ginsenoside Rb1, astragaloside, and ginsenoside Rd were set as indexes. The influence of ethanol concentration, extraction time, extraction temperature, and amount of ethanol on the yield of Lichong ShengsuiDecoction were detected by comprehensive scoring method.Results The optimal ethanol extraction technology forLichong ShengsuiDecoction was soaking for 2 h with ten times of 60% ethanol and then reflux extracting for two times; extraction time was 1.5 h each time at 80℃.ConclusionThe optimal extraction technology is efficient, stable and feasible, which can provides data for the further study ofLichong ShengsuiDecoction.
