Abstract:
Objective Using the contents of naphthaquinine and shikonin as the indices,the influences of ultrasonic extraction and soxhlet extraction on the active constituents in Arnebia euchroma(Royle)Johnst.were studied.Methods An orthogonal design was applied.Naphthaquinine content was determined by spectrophotometry and shikonin content by HPLC.The extraction rate of the two extracting methods was compared to optimize the process condition.Results By using the two extracting methods,particle size had an obvious effect on the extraction rate of naphthaquinine(the bigger particle,the higher extraction rate),but had no effect on the extraction rate of shikonin;the solvent of ethanol showed different effects on the extraction rate of active constituents by using the two extraction methods,the extraction rate being higher by ultrasonic extraction while lower by soxhlet extraction.Conclusion Ultrasonic extraction is efficient,and with energy and time saving in extracting active constituents of Arnebia euchroma(Royle)Johnst.,which is superior to soxhlet extraction.
