Abstract:Objective: To set up a proper technology of refining of the aqueous extract of Wuzhuyu-tang. Method: 7 kind components which had been improved to be absorbable pharmacological ingredients were chosen as index for refining. The static adsorption,dynamic adsorption and leakage curve experiments were done to choose a proper resin. By means of single-factor experiment and orthogonal experiment,the optimum refining conditions were found,such as adsorption time, proportion of sample weight and resin volume,proportion of diameter and height,concentration of decoction and eluent,flow rate,eluent volume and so on. Result: The AB-8 resin had the best separating efficiency when the content in the aqueous extract was 0.33g per 1mL equivalent to raw material,the ratio of dia-height was 1:4,and the volume of 60% ethanol as eluant 8BV with desorption-power 0.1BV/min. Conclusion: The content of 7 kind components were over 70% after refining, 5 of them were over 90%. It is concluded that the optimized extracting and refining technology is reasonable and feasible.
