TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine extract, and particularly relates to a preparation method of Daemonorops draco extract and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Blood is a traditional precious Chinese medicine, known as "the blood of the holy medicine", which has the effects of activating blood, relieving pain, removing blood stasis, and stopping bleeding. The 2010 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia records blood as the resin exuded from the fruit of Daemonorops draco Bl. of the Palmaceae family, which is processed. Blood has a wide range of pharmacological effects and is widely used in clinical practice, such as treating cervical erosion, uterine fibroids, and cervical bleeding in gynecology, treating coronary heart disease in cardiovascular department, treating hemorrhoids, bedsores, and surface wounds in surgery, and treating epistaxis, oral ulcers, and retinal branch vein obstruction in ophthalmology. Daemonorops draco contains about 57.5% red resin, from which bloodletting and bloodletting are separated, which are both derivatives of flavonoids, and bloodletting is one of the important active substances.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN106279090A discloses a method for separating and purifying bloodletting from Daemonorops draco husk, which specifically comprises the following steps: A: adding an ethanol solution with a volume fraction of 95% to Daemonorops draco husk, the amount of which is 6.075-7.290 times the mass of the husk; B: extracting the mixture obtained in step A by ultrasonic extraction and concentrating it to a extract. This method can obtain red resin containing bloodletting remaining in the discarded husk of Daemonorops draco. Chinese another invention patent CN106946836A discloses a process for extracting bloodletting from Daemonorops draco, which is prepared by the steps of crushing, primary decolorization, crude crystallization, secondary decolorization, macroporous adsorption resin separation and purification, concentration and crystallization, and drying. Chinese another invention patent CN106588849A discloses a method for separating and purifying bloodletting, which comprises the following steps: (1) obtaining medicinal blood as raw material; (2) dissolving the blood in step (1) with an organic solution, and taking the supernatant; (3) adding an equal volume of water to the supernatant in step (2) for back extraction, and taking the water phase layer; (4) vacuum concentrating and vacuum drying the water phase layer in step (3) to obtain bloodletting powder. However, the above-mentioned patents have the problems of low yield, complex steps, and high production cost in extracting bloodletting.

[0045] 1.77 mg of hemin perchlorate control was precisely weighed and determined, 3% phosphoric acid methanol solution was precisely added and diluted to 10 mL in a volumetric flask, and then shaken to obtain a hemin perchlorate control solution (128.54 μg of hemin was contained in every 1 mL of hemin perchlorate) (the weight of hemin = the weight of hemin perchlorate / 1.377). The hemin perchlorate control solution was configured to have concentrations of 11.0625, 22.125, 44.25, 88.5, and 177 μg / mL, respectively.

[0046] 100 mg of the different extracted layer samples of the Herba Epimedii in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were precisely weighed, respectively, 3% phosphoric acid methanol solution was added and diluted to 10 mL in a volumetric flask, and then shaken to obtain a sample solution with a concentration of 10 mg / mL.

[0047] The content of dracorhodin in different extraction layers in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 was detected by HPLC, wherein the HPLC detection column was ZORBAX SB-C18; the mobile phase A was 0.2% acetic acid aqueous solution, the mobile phase B was acetonitrile, the gradient elution program was shown in Table 1; the detection wavelength was 440 nm; the injection volume was 5 μL; and the flow rate was 1.0 mL / min.

[0048] Table 1 Gradient elution program

[0049]

[0050] The standard curve of the reference dracorhodin perchlorate was y = 9.1405x - 5.5804, R = 0.9995, and the concentration linear range was 11.0625-177 μg / mL. 2

[0051] The HPLC chromatogram of dracorhodin in QLJ① layer is shown in Figure 1; the HPLC chromatogram of dracorhodin in QLJ② layer is shown in Figure 2; the HPLC chromatogram of dracorhodin in QLJ③ layer is shown in Figure 3; the HPLC chromatogram of dracorhodin in QLJ④ layer is shown in Figure 4; and the HPLC chromatogram of the reference dracorhodin perchlorate is shown in Figure 5.

[0053] From Table 2, it can be seen that the content of dracorhodin was the highest in the ethyl acetate extraction layer (QLJ③), followed by the ethanol extraction part (QLJ①), and therefore, the ethyl acetate extraction might have an enrichment effect on dracorhodin and compounds with similar polarity.

[0055]

[0056] Effect Example: DPPH free radical scavenging rate experiment

[0057] Preparation of DPPH ethanol solution: 20 mg of DPPH was weighed, dissolved in anhydrous ethanol, and diluted to a 250 mL volumetric flask, which was stored at 0-4 °C in the dark and used immediately, and was effective within 4 h.

[0058] Preparation of the test solution: the Eupholia lindleyana Baill. extracts in QLJ①, QLJ②, QLJ③ and QLJ④ layers in Example 1 were prepared into 1, 0.5, 0.25 and 0.125 mg / mL test solutions. ​​​​​​

[0059] The positive control group selects 1 mg / mL vitamin C, which is stored at 0-4°C in the dark. It is prepared and used immediately.

[0060] The negative control group selects distilled water.

[0061] Specific experimental steps: add each reagent according to the ratio of Table 3, mix well, react at room temperature in the dark for 30 min, and then measure the absorbance values of A, B, and C tubes at 517 nm using an enzyme marker.

[0062] Table 3 Liquid-solid ratio

[0063]

[0064] The DPPH free radical scavenging rate calculation formula is:

[0065] Scavenging rate (%) = [(B+C)-A] ÷ B × 100%.

[0066] In the formula: A is the absorbance value of tube A at 517 nm; B is the absorbance value of tube B at 517 nm; and C is the absorbance value of tube C at 517 nm.

[0067] Result analysis: the DPPH scavenging rate of the positive control group is 98.05%, the DPPH scavenging rate of the negative control group is 2.79%, and the DPPH scavenging rate of the test solution is shown in Table 4. It can be seen that the antioxidant effect is QLJ ③ > QLJ ④ > QLJ ② > QLJ ①, and the above HPLC detection of dracorhodin content is QLJ ③ > QLJ ① > QLJ ④ > QLJ ②, which shows that the extractant also has certain influence on the antioxidant effect.
