Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicines, and particularly relates to an extraction method for removing heavy metal residues from traditional Chinese medicines and an application thereof in preparing white capsules. Background Art

[0002] Due to the presence of heavy metals in the soil and atmosphere and the use of pesticides, heavy metals are inevitably present in Chinese medicinal materials. In addition, the fumigants used in the storage process of Chinese medicinal materials to prevent mildew, insect pests and rodent pests will also lead to an increase in the heavy metal content in Chinese medicinal materials.

[0003] Heavy metals can interact strongly with proteins and various enzymes in the human body, causing them to lose their activity. They may also accumulate in certain organs of the human body. If the amount exceeds the limit that the human body can tolerate, it can cause acute poisoning, subacute poisoning, chronic poisoning and other hazards.

[0004] The main source of heavy metals in traditional Chinese medicines is the heavy metals in Chinese medicinal materials. If there are excessive amounts of heavy metals in traditional Chinese medicines, they will have toxic side effects that cause disease while playing a therapeutic role. Therefore, removing heavy metal residues in Chinese medicinal materials is one of the prerequisites for ensuring the safety of traditional Chinese medicines.

[0005] The main methods for removing heavy metal residues in traditional Chinese medicines include supercritical fluid extraction, macroporous resin chelation and chitosan adsorption. The supercritical fluid extraction method has high instrumentation and equipment prices, resulting in high costs; the macroporous resin chelation method is complex to operate and requires high process technology conditions; the chitosan adsorption method has limitations because chitosan itself has certain pharmacological effects and has a certain impact on certain active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine.

[0006] There are also some other methods in the prior art. For example, the Chinese patent with publication number CN 116116045 A discloses a treatment method for removing heavy metals in the process of extracting traditional Chinese medicine. This technical solution is a method for simultaneously removing five heavy metals, Cu, Cd, As, Hg, and Pb, using sodium alginate in the process of extracting traditional Chinese medicine. The heavy metal content can be reduced to below the safety limit, and the purpose of eliminating the safety hazards of heavy metals in traditional Chinese medicine preparations can be achieved. However, this technical solution has a higher removal rate for Cd, Hg, and Pb, but a lower removal rate for Cu and As.

[0007] The Chinese patent with publication number CN103505905B discloses a method for removing heavy metals from traditional Chinese medicine by using a chelating resin and an ion exchange resin composition, comprising the following steps: step 1, the Chinese medicinal material is subjected to solvent extraction treatment to finally obtain a Chinese medicinal extract with alcohol as a dispersion system; step 2, preparation of a resin composition; step 3, the Chinese medicinal extract is passed through a resin composition column. The preparation of the resin composition in step 2 is a process of mixing a chelating resin with an ion exchange resin to obtain a mixed resin; this technical solution can simultaneously remove Cu, Cd, As, Hg, and Pb in a balanced manner, but this technical solution not only uses a chelating resin, but also uses an ion exchange resin, resulting in increased costs.

[0008] Jiebai Capsule is a Chinese patent medicine with the effects of strengthening the spleen and stomach, relieving pain and vomiting, and separating the clear from the turbid. It is used to treat symptoms such as chest and abdominal distension, epigastric pain, indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea, and difficulty urinating. The prescription is Terminalia chebula (braised), nutmeg, cardamom kernel, cardamom, agarwood, clove, wulingzhi paste, safflower, pomegranate seeds, papaya, inulin, cold water stone (processed flat), pterocarpus, travertine, and honey (refined).

[0009] Due to the presence of multiple Chinese medicinal materials in Jiebai Capsules, the excessive heavy metal content will not only affect the safety of medication, but also affect its quality. However, there is currently no prior art report on methods for removing metal residues in Chinese medicinal materials. Summary of the invention

[0111] As can be seen from Table 2, the extraction methods of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 8 have a high removal rate for the five heavy metals. Comparative Example 1 replaces the dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / spiral nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent with a dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / straight-chain nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent; Comparative Example 2 replaces the dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / spiral nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent with a spiral nanocarbon fiber; Comparative Example 3 replaces the dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / spiral nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent with a zinc oxide / spiral nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent. Fiber composite adsorbent; Comparative Example 4 replaces the mesoporous silica / traditional Chinese medicine residue biochar composite adsorbent with traditional Chinese medicine residue biochar; Comparative Example 5 directly mixes traditional Chinese medicine residue biochar and mesoporous silica; Comparative Example 6 replaces the mesoporous silica / traditional Chinese medicine residue biochar composite adsorbent in step (6) with a dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / helical nano-carbon fiber composite adsorbent, and Comparative Example 7 does not use a dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / helical nano-carbon fiber composite adsorbent; The extraction methods of Comparative Examples 1-7 have reduced removal rates of the five heavy metals.

[0112] 2. The total polyphenol content in the Chinese medicinal material extracts of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-8 and the Chinese medicinal material extracts without using an adsorbent was detected by HPLC method, and the change rate of the total polyphenol content (adsorbed) in the Chinese medicinal material extracts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 18 relative to the total polyphenol content (non-adsorbed) in the Chinese medicinal material extracts without using an adsorbent was calculated. The calculation formula for the change rate of the total polyphenol content is: (non-adsorbed-adsorbed) / non-adsorbed*100%. The specific results are shown in Table 3.

[0113] Table 3 Results of the change rate of total polyphenol content in each group of Chinese herbal medicine extracts

[0115] It can be seen from Table 3 that the extraction methods of Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 7 have little effect on the total polyphenol content of the Chinese medicinal material extract. Comparative Example 6 replaces the mesoporous silica / Chinese medicinal material residue biochar composite adsorbent in step (6) with a dendritic polyamide-amine modified zinc oxide / helical nanocarbon fiber composite adsorbent, and Comparative Example 8 changes the extraction steps; the extraction methods of Comparative Examples 6 and Comparative Example 8 have a greater effect on the total polyphenol content of the Chinese medicinal material extract.

Simple modifications or equivalent substitutions of the technical solution of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field do not deviate from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
