Problems solved by technology

Adsorption resin and dextran gel chromatography have poor separation performance and need to be combined with separation methods such as HPLC; dextran gel is expensive; high-speed countercurrent chromatography and high-performance liquid phase preparative chromatography have small preparation volumes, low separation efficiency, and require energy high consumption
Huang Yongdong and others used the B-type three-zone simulated moving bed technology, with C18 bonded silica gel as the stationary phase, ethanol and water (20:80, v / v) as the mobile phase, and the Varicol process can obtain ECG with a purity of 91.33%. The rate is 91.41% [Huang Yongdong, Jiang Heyuan, Jiang Yongwen, etc. Comparative study on the separation and purification of ECG and EGCG by traditional SMB, Varicol and Partial-discard processes [J]. Tea Science, 2011, 31(3): 201-210], but The above two methods have the disadvantages of expensive C18 bonded silica gel, a large amount of organic solvent, and a small loading capacity of the separation platform (countercurrent chromatography, moving bed).
[0005] These deficiencies restrict its application in the separation of catechins

Embodiment 1

[0039] A 65% ethanol aqueous solution (pH=3.0, acidified with citric acid) with a mass fraction of 65% was used as the mobile phase and a tea polyphenol solution with a mass concentration of 25% was prepared. The solution was passed through a 0.45 μm microfiltration membrane, and the filtrate was collected. The filtrate was ultrasonically degassed (ultrasonic frequency 50HZ) for 30 minutes, and then allowed to stand for 10 minutes. The solution was applied to a CCTRI-1 monodisperse polymer reversed-phase chromatography column, with a sample volume of 3mL, a column length of 26cm, a column diameter of 1.2cm, a filler particle size of 10μm, a column pressure of 10Mpa, and a mobile phase for elution. At 5mL / min, the eluted fractions are collected in sections, the fractions with EGCG figure 2 As shown, the purity of the obtained EGCG is 98.69% by HPLC detection.

Embodiment 2

[0041] A 15% mass fraction of ethanol aqueous solution (pH=4.0, acidified with citric acid) was used as the mobile phase and a 25% mass concentration of tea polyphenol solution was prepared. The solution was passed through a 0.45 μm microfiltration membrane, and the filtrate was collected. The filtrate was ultrasonically degassed (ultrasonic frequency 50HZ) for 30 minutes, and then allowed to stand for 10 minutes. The solution was applied to a CCTRI-1 monodisperse polymer reversed-phase chromatography column, the sample volume was 100mL, the column length was 49cm, the column diameter was 5cm, the filler particle size was 40μm, the column pressure was 5Mpa, and the mobile phase was used for elution. The mobile phase flow rate was 100mL / min, the eluted fractions are collected in sections, the fractions with EGCG image 3 As shown, the purity of the obtained EGCG was 98.1% by HPLC detection.

The solution was passed through a 0.45 μm microfiltration membrane, and the filtrate was collected. The filtrate was ultrasonically degassed (ultrasonic frequency 50HZ) for 30 minutes, and then allowed to stand for 10 minutes. The solution was applied to a CCTRI-1 monodisperse polymer reversed-phase chromatography column, the sample volume was 100mL, the column length was 48cm, the column diameter was 6.8cm, the filler particle size was 40μm, the column pressure was 2Mpa, and the mobile phase was used for elution.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating and purifying EGCG (Epigallocatechin Gallate) by medium-pressure high polymer inversed phase chromatography. The method comprises the steps of dissolving a tea polyphenol raw material by taking acidified ethanol water with certain concentration as a mobile phase, filtering the acidified ethanol water by a micro-filtration membrane, then eluting the mobile phase by using a CCTRI-1 monodisperse high polymer inversed phase chromatographic column, collecting eluted cut fractions in a segmenting manner, concentrating the cut fractions to a certain concentration by a nanofiltration membrane, and drying the concentrate in a vacuum freeze drier to obtain a high-purity EGCG product. According to the method, the process is simple, the operation is convenient, the production cycle is short, the separating efficiency is high, the product purity is high, and a solvent used in the separation and purification process is ethanol solution which is non-toxic and can be recycled, so that the low carbon and environmental protection effect is realized, and the safety problem caused by the using of organic solvents can be effectively avoided.
