Study of optimum extraction on Rhizoma Curculiginis by orthogonal design / 中成药

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the extraction for the curculigoside and polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis. Methods: The optimum extraction was selected by the orthogonal design. The content of total curculigoside was determined by HPLC, The content of polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis was determined by spetrophotometry.Results: The extraction times affected significantly total curculigoside and Polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis. Conclusion: The optimum extraction is as follows adding 8 times amount of water into Chinese medical materials, and boiling for 90 min each time, extracting three times in all.
