The invention discloses an immature bitter orange
polyphenol extract as well as an extraction method and an optimization method thereof, and relates to the technical field of
plant extraction. The extraction method comprises the following steps: S1, taking immature bitter orange as a
raw material, and performing ultrasonic-assisted extraction by using
ethanol to obtain a crude extract; s2, adding the crude extract into water, heating to dissolve the crude extract, cooling, adding absolute ethyl
alcohol, standing, and centrifuging to remove precipitate to obtain a concentrated solution; and S3, carrying out dynamic adsorption and
desorption on the concentrated solution by using resin, eluting by using
ethanol, collecting the eluent, and concentrating to obtain the product. According to the method, parameters such as
ethanol volume fraction, liquid-
solid ratio, ultrasonic time, power and temperature are optimized through a response surface
analysis method, the most suitable resin is screened out for further purification, the method has the advantages of high yield, low cost and
environmental protection, efficient and green extraction preparation of the total
phenols of the immature bitter oranges is achieved, the
naringin content in the extract is higher than 50 g / 100 g, and the method is suitable for industrial production. The content of
neohesperidin is higher than 10g / 100g.
