Abstract:
Objective:To optimize the chitosan flocculation purification process of Zhigancao decoction. Methods:With the total content of ginsenoside Rg1 , Re and Rb1 and the impurity removal rate as the evaluation indices, an orthogonal test was used to investi-gate the effects of concentration of solution, amount of chitosan and standing temperature on the purification process. Results:The op-timum conditions of chitosan flocculation clarification process of Zhigancao decoction were as follows:the concentration of extraction so-lution was 0. 25 g·ml-1 , the standing temperature was 25℃, and the amount of chitosan was 12% . Conclusion:The optimum con-ditions of purification process are promising with high impurity removal rate and active ingredients retention rate, which provide refer-ence for the dosage form reformation of Zhigancao decoction.
