The invention relates to the field of extraction and purification of active substances of natural products, and discloses
plant active ingredients in
camphor tree seed kernels and a separation and purification method thereof.The method comprises the steps that fresh
camphor tree seed kernels and water are mixed, wet-process
superfine grinding is conducted through a
colloid mill at the
room temperature,
centrifugal separation is conducted to obtain a middle-layer water phase, and the middle-layer water phase is statically or dynamically adsorbed through HJ-18
macroporous resin; and desorbing with 80%
ethanol, collecting a
desorption solution, carrying out rotary
evaporation, and freeze-
drying to obtain the water-soluble
active component of the
camphor tree seed kernel. The invention provides a new process for enriching and purifying the
active components of the camphor tree seed kernels, the
active components of the camphor tree seed kernels are enriched and purified by taking water as an extracting agent and combining with
macroporous resin, the operation is simple and convenient, the enrichment efficiency is high, the use amount of organic solvents such as
methanol and
ethanol is reduced, and the process is safe and environment-friendly. In addition, compared with an
ethanol extraction method, the method has the advantages that the camphor tree seed kernel
protein is not denatured, and the quality of the camphor tree seed kernel
protein is improved; according to the technical scheme, a new solution is provided for comprehensive utilization of camphor tree seed resources.
