[0035] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, and the above and / or other advantages of the present invention will become more clear.

[0036] The ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies used in the following examples were purchased from Jiangsu Hongshou Bioengineering Co., Ltd. The purity of ganoderma lucidum was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (Agilent), the polysaccharide content was detected by sulfuric acid-phenol method (ultraviolet liquid chromatography, Japan Shimadzu UV2600), the total triterpene content was detected by vanillin-perchloric acid method (ultraviolet liquid chromatography, Japan Shimadzu UV2600), and the concentration was concentrated by rotary evaporator (Buchi Laboratory Equipment Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.). The centrifugal conditions were a speed of 10000rmp / min and a time of 10min. The polysaccharide content in the sample ganoderma lucidum powder was 45%, the total triterpene content was 9.2%, the ganoderma lucidum A content was 1.3%, and the ganoderma lucidum D content was 1.1%. The calculation formula for each substance is as follows:

[0037]

[0038] Embodiment 1:

[0039] The fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ganoderic acid was enriched with ethyl acetate. Specifically, 2 g of the fruiting bodies were dissolved in 100 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted by Soxhlet extraction at 100°C for 6 hours, centrifuged, and freeze-dried. The centrifugation conditions were a speed of 10,000 rpm and a time of 10 minutes to obtain a crude extract of ganoderic acid. 2 g of the crude extract of ganoderic acid was added to 200 mL of methanol, and ultrasonic extraction or Soxhlet extraction (ultrasonic frequency of 220 W, temperature of 100°C; Soxhlet extraction temperature of 100°C) was performed for 6 hours, centrifuged, and the supernatant was taken for detection of ganoderic acid purity, polysaccharide content, and total triterpene content.

[0040] Experimental results:

[0041] The HPLC spectrum after ultrasonic extraction is shown in Figure 1 , HPLC after Soxhlet extraction Figure 2 The effects of Soxhlet extraction and ultrasonic extraction on various evaluation indicators are shown in Table 1.

[0042] Table 1 Effects of different extraction methods on the extraction of ganoderic acid

[0043]

[0044]

[0045] As shown in Table 1, Soxhlet extraction has a better extraction effect on ganoderic acid A and D than ultrasonic extraction. The extraction amount of ganoderic acid A and D reached 0.668% and 0.314% respectively. At the same time, the sugar content decreased significantly, and the extraction was more complete. Figure 1 It can be seen that there is a large impurity peak at 6 minutes with more impurities, 15-30 minutes are the peaks of various ganoderic acids, and there are also some impurity peaks between 50-60 minutes. After Soxhlet extraction, the intensity of the impurity peaks at 50-60 minutes has been significantly weakened, and some impurity peaks have even disappeared, which improves the purity of ganoderic acid. The purity of ganoderic acid A+D extracted by ultrasound is 28.58%, and the purity of total triterpenes is 57.17%; the purity of ganoderic acid A+D extracted by Soxhlet is 31.38%, and the purity of total triterpenes is 74.89%.

[0046] Embodiment 2:

[0047] The fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ganoderic acid was enriched with ethyl acetate. Specifically, 2 g of the fruiting bodies were dissolved in 100 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted at 100°C for 6 hours using the Soxhlet extraction method, centrifuged, and freeze-dried to obtain a crude extract of ganoderic acid. 2 g of the crude extract of ganoderic acid was added to 200 mL of 70% ethanol or methanol, and Soxhlet extraction was performed for 6 hours at an extraction temperature of 100°C. The supernatant of the extract was taken for ganoderic acid content and polysaccharide content, and then the extract was concentrated and freeze-dried.

[0048] Experimental results:

[0049] The HPLC spectrum after methanol extraction is shown in Figure 2 , HPLC after 70% ethanol extraction Figure 3 The effects of different extraction solvents on various evaluation indicators are shown in Table 2.

[0050] Table 2 Extraction effects of different extraction solvents

[0051] type Methanol 70% ethanol Ganoderic acid A content (%) 0.668 0.82 Ganoderic acid D content (%) 0.314 0.44 Total triterpenoid content (%) 6.89 8.7 Polysaccharide content (%) 1.11 0.87

[0052] As shown in Table 2, 70% ethanol has a better effect in extracting total triterpenoids of ganoderic acid, the contents of ganoderic acid A and D are increased, and the sugar content can be reduced to below 1%. Figure 3 It can be seen that the impurity peak at 50-60min disappeared and the purity was improved. The purity of ganoderic acid A+D extracted by methanol was 31.38%, and the purity of total triterpenes was 74.81%; the purity of ganoderic acid A+D extracted by 70% ethanol was 46.28%, and the purity of total triterpenes was 94.57%.

[0053] Example 3

[0054] The fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ganoderic acid was enriched with ethyl acetate. Specifically, 2 g of the fruiting bodies were dissolved in 100 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted at 100° C. for 6 h using the Soxhlet extraction method, centrifuged, and freeze-dried to obtain a crude ganoderic acid extract. 2 g of the crude ganoderic acid extract was added to 200 mL of 70% ethanol, and Soxhlet extraction was performed for 3 h and 6 h at a temperature of 100° C. The supernatant of the extract was taken for ganoderic acid content, ganoderic acid purity, and polysaccharide content, and then the extract was concentrated and freeze-dried.

[0055] Experimental results:

[0056] The HPLC spectrum after 6h extraction with 70% ethanol is shown in Figure 3 , HPLC analysis after 70% ethanol extraction for 3 h Figure 4 ,The influence of extraction time on various evaluation indicators is shown in Table 3.

[0057] Table 3 Effect of extraction time on solvent extraction effect

[0058] type Extraction 6h Extraction 3h Ganoderic acid A content (%) 0.82 1.27 Ganoderic acid D content (%) 0.44 1.07 Total triterpenoid content (%) 8.7 9.1 Polysaccharide content (%) 0.87 0.71

[0059] As can be seen from Table 3, when the extraction duration is 3 h, while the sugar content remains below 1%, the contents of ganoderic acids A and D increase to 1.27% and 1.07% respectively. From Figure 4 it can be seen that when extracting for 3 h, the intensity of impurity peaks between 0 min and 10 min weakens, and almost all the impurity peaks after 30 min disappear. When extracting for 6 h, the purity of ganoderic acids A + D is 46.28%, and the purity of total triterpenoids is 94.57%; when extracting for 3 h, the purity of ganoderic acids A + D is 62.69%, and the purity of total triterpenoids is 98.91%.

[0060] Example 4:

[0061] The Ganoderma lucidum fruiting body was crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ganoderic acids were enriched with ethyl acetate. Specifically, 2 g of the fruiting body was dissolved in 100 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted for 6 h at 100 °C using Soxhlet extraction, centrifuged, and freeze-dried to obtain a crude extract of ganoderic acids. 1 g, 2 g, and 4 g of the crude extract of ganoderic acids were respectively added to 200 mL of 70% ethanol, and Soxhlet extraction was carried out for 3 h at a temperature of 100 °C. The supernatant of the extract was taken for the determination of the content of ganoderic acids and the content of polysaccharides, and then the extract was concentrated and freeze-dried.

[0062] Experimental results:

[0063] The high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) chromatogram of extraction for 3 h with a solid-liquid ratio of 1:100 is as Figure 4 shown, the HPLC chromatogram of extraction for 3 h with a solid-liquid ratio of 1:50 is as Figure 5 shown, the HPLC chromatogram of extraction for 3 h with a solid-liquid ratio of 1:200 is as Figure 6 shown, and the effects of different solid-liquid ratios on various evaluation indexes are shown in Table 4.

[0064] Table 4 Effects of different solid-liquid ratios on the extraction agent

[0065] type Solid-liquid ratio 1:50 Solid-liquid ratio 1:100 Solid-liquid ratio 1:200 Ganoderic acid A content (%) 0.87 1.27 0.88 Ganoderic acid D content (%) 0.87 1.07 0.58 Total triterpenoid content (%) 7.75 9.1 7.5 Polysaccharide content (%) 0.89 0.71 1.44

[0066] From Table 4 and Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 it can be seen that after extraction with different solid-liquid ratios, the purities are all relatively high. However, when the solid-liquid ratio is 1:100 (2 g of the crude extract of ganoderic acids and 200 mL of 70% ethanol), the contents of ganoderic acids A and D are higher. When the solid-liquid ratio is 1:50, the purity of ganoderic acids A + D is 54.92%, and the purity of total triterpenoids is 84.24%; when the solid-liquid ratio is 1:100, the purity of ganoderic acids A + D is 62.69%, and the purity of total triterpenoids is 98.91%; when the solid-liquid ratio is 1:200, the purity of ganoderic acids A + D is 52.32%, and the purity of total triterpenoids is 81.52%.

[0067] Embodiment 5:

[0068] The fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ganoderic acid was enriched with ethyl acetate. Specifically, 2 g of the fruiting bodies were dissolved in 100 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted at 100 ° C for 6 h using the Soxhlet extraction method, centrifuged, and freeze-dried to obtain a crude extract of ganoderic acid. 2 g of the crude extract of ganoderic acid was added to 200 mL of 70% ethanol, and Soxhlet extraction was performed for 3 h at a temperature of 100 ° C. The supernatant of the extract was taken for ganoderic acid content, ganoderic acid purity, and polysaccharide content. The extract was then concentrated, freeze-dried, and finally crystallized with water as an antisolvent at a speed of 200 rmp / min, a temperature of 25 ° C, and a flow rate of 0.3 mL / min. 0.1 g of the crystals before antisolvent crystallization and the crystals after antisolvent crystallization were added to 10 mL of 70% ethanol, and the transmittance was detected at 430 nm using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer.

[0069] Experimental results:

[0070] Figure 7 The color comparison of the product before and after anti-solvent crystallization. The UV results show that the UV transmittance increased from 20% to 91%. Figure 7 It can be seen that after anti-solvent crystallization, the color changes significantly, which shows that the anti-solvent crystallization process is conducive to decolorization. At the same time, after anti-solvent crystallization, the purity of ganoderic acid A+D is 62.32%, and the purity of total triterpenes is 98.43%.

[0071] Embodiment 6:

[0072] The ganoderma lucidum fruiting body was crushed, passed through a 60-mesh sieve, and ethyl acetate was used to enrich the ganoderma lucidum acid. Specifically, 2g of the fruiting body was dissolved in 100mL of ethyl acetate and extracted at 100°C for 6h using the Soxhlet extraction method, centrifuged, and freeze-dried to obtain a crude extract of ganoderma lucidum acid. 40g of the crude extract of ganoderma lucidum acid was added to 4000mL of 70% ethanol, and Soxhlet extraction was performed for 3h. The supernatant of the extract was taken for ganoderma lucidum acid content, ganoderma lucidum acid purity, and polysaccharide content, and then the extract was concentrated and freeze-dried. Finally, the anti-solvent was crystallized with water (the specific conditions were the same as in Example 5), and the transmittance was tested at a maximum absorption wavelength of 430nm using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer, and the crystal was dissolved in 70% ethanol to detect the product transmittance. Repeat the above steps and make ten batches. Calculate the conversion rate of each batch, the calculation formula is as follows, and the results are shown in Table 5.
