AI Technical Summary
The existing extraction process for Jiubiying mainly extracts the water-soluble component syringin, but fails to completely extract pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins, resulting in waste of medicinal residue resources and environmental pollution.
Long-stem glycosides and syringin were extracted from *Symplocos rubra* using a heating reflux method. The residue was further extracted, and the extract concentration was increased by combining alcohol precipitation and treatment with weakly polar organic solvents and multi-stage filtration.
More comprehensive component extraction was achieved, increasing the content of holmyl glycoside and syringin, making full use of medicinal residue resources, and reducing production costs.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine extraction, and in particular to a scutellaria baicalensis extract and an extraction process thereof. Background Art
[0002] The Chinese medicinal herb Jiubiying is the dried bark of Ilex xanthophylla, a plant of the Aquifoliaceae family. It is widely distributed in southern provinces of China and is commonly used by the folks for clearing away heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain, treating colds and fever, acute and chronic hepatitis, acute gastroenteritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and rheumatic joint pain. Therefore, Jiubiying is a medicinal herb with a wide range of uses and is also known as "Jiubingying".
[0003] At present, the extraction process of scutellaria baicalensis mostly adopts water extraction method, and the scutellaria baicalensis residue after extraction is discarded as waste residue, which is not environmentally friendly and a waste. In addition, the water extraction method mainly extracts the water-soluble component syringin in scutellaria baicalensis, while there are still many pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins in the residue that have not been completely extracted, resulting in a waste of resources.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a Herba Lysimachiae extract and an extraction process thereof to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention aims to provide a method for obtaining a Herba Schizonepetae Extract containing pedunculate glycosides and syringin from the Herba Schizonepetae Extract and the Herba Schizonepetae Reticulatae residues by heating and reflux.
[0006] The present invention provides an extraction process of a scutellaria baicalensis extract, comprising the following steps:
[0007] Step S1: Wash and dry the Jiubiying medicinal materials, crush them and sieve them through 60-80 mesh;
[0008] Step S2: mixing the crushed Jiubing powder with an extraction solvent, performing reflux extraction at a temperature of 85-95° C. for 120-180 min, filtering and collecting the filtrate after extraction to obtain a medicinal residue precipitate and an extract A, respectively;
[0009] Step S3: the extract A is concentrated by alcohol precipitation, filtered to obtain an alcohol precipitate, ethanol is recovered from the alcohol precipitate, concentrated to obtain a concentrated solution A, the concentrated solution A is concentrated to 1 / 2 of the volume of the extract, cooled to room temperature and centrifuged to obtain a precipitate and a supernatant, 50-95% ethanol is added to the precipitate for reflux extraction, the filtrate is concentrated and dried to obtain total saponin A, the supernatant is filtered and the filtrate is collected and concentrated to obtain total saponin B;
[0010] Step S4: adding 90-95% ethanol to the residue precipitate for extraction, filtering to obtain an alcohol extract, recovering the solvent from the alcohol extract, concentrating to obtain a concentrated solution B, concentrating the concentrated solution B to an extract state, adding silica gel to mix, and then drying to obtain an alcohol extract silica gel powder, extracting the alcohol extract silica gel powder with a weakly polar organic solvent to obtain an extract B, recovering the solvent from the extract B, filtering and drying to obtain total saponins C;
[0011] Step S5: The sum of total saponin A, total saponin B and total saponin C is the Herba Cibotii extract obtained by the extraction process.
[0012] Preferably, the weakly polar organic solvent is chloroform, benzene, dichloromethane or petroleum ether.
[0013] Preferably, each 1 g of the Herba Lysimachiae extract contains 304 mg of pedunculate glycoside and 62 mg of syringin.
[0014] Preferably, step S2 can be repeated 2-3 times, and the extraction solvent is 2-10 times of 50-95% ethanol solution.
[0015] Preferably, the filtering steps in step S3 and step S4 include: using coarse filtration, fine filtration, microfiltration and nanofiltration membrane filtration in sequence.
[0016] Technical effects and advantages of the present invention:
[0017] The present invention firstly adopts a heating reflux method, which is different from the room temperature immersion and conventional water extraction methods in the prior art. The extraction process can obtain more pedunculate holly glycoside and syringin.
[0018] While the extract is prepared by the extraction liquid, the originally discarded drug residue is further fully extracted to fully utilize resources, reduce production costs, and increase the content of the extract.
[0019] The concentration of the extract product is further increased by using coarse filtration, fine filtration, microfiltration and nanofiltration membrane filtration in sequence, combined with concentration work. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
