Its products are widely used in medical treatment, health care products, food, cosmetics and other fields. However, ginkgo leaf extract also contains a small amount of ginkgolic acid compounds with sensitization and mutagenicity. It has been confirmed that when the content of ginkgolic acid is less than 10 ppm, it is harmless to the human body; with the improvement of living standards, the relevant international standards now require the content of ginkgolic acid to be less than 5 ppm. At present, the main methods for removing ginkgolic acid from ginkgo leaf extract are: supercritical carbon dioxide method, macroporous resin method and organic solvent extraction method, or a combination of two or more of these methods.
