Abstract:
OBJECTIVE：To optimize the water extraction and ethanol precipitation technology of Zhuang medicine Baijin granules. METHODS ：HPLC method was adopted to determine the content of bergenin in Baijin granules extract. The extraction routes of Baijin granules （water decoction ，70％ ethanol reflux extraction ，water decoction combined with 70％ ethanol reflux extraction）was screened primarily with the yield of extract and the experiment of reducing uric acid of mice. The orthogonal test was adopted to optimize water extraction technology of Baijin granules with water multiple ，extraction time and extraction times as factors，taking the extraction yield and the bergenin content as index ，then the validation test was carried out. The orthogonal test was adopted to optimize the alcohol precipitation process of Baijin granules including the relative density of medicinal materials ， alcohol content and the alcohol precipitation time ，then the validation test was carried out. By the experiment of reducing uric acid ， the effects of medicinal materials extract of Baijin granules extract were compared before and after ethanol precipitation. RESLUTS：Established method for content determination of bergenin with linearity range of 0.007 2-0.288 mg/mL，had good precision，reproducibility，stability and accuracy. The initially chosen extraction process of Baijin granules was water decoction extraction. The optimal water extraction technology was soaked for 0.5 h，then decocted for 3 times with 14-fold water （mL/g）and 1.0 h each time. The optimal ethanol precipitation process was to concentrate the water extract to a relative density of 1.0 g/mL with alcohol content of liquid at 60％ and precipitated for 12 h. Validation tests showed that RSDs of extract yield and beragenin content were all lower than 2％（n＝3）. The experiment of pharmacodynamics showed that water extract （before ethanol precipitation ）and water extract after alcohol precipitation could significantly decrease the level of uric acid in hyperuricemia model mice （P＜0.01）. There was no statistical significance in the reduction of uric acid between 2 groups（P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：The optimized water extraction technology can obtain good extract yield and bergenin content ，and combined with ethanol precipitation technology for removing excess impurities would not affect the pharmacodynamics. The water extraction and ethanol precipitation technology is feasible，and can be used for extracting the medicinal materials of Baijin granules and its edulcoration.
