- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To optimize the ultrahigh pressure extraction (UPE) process of effective constituents from Jinqiao Reduqing granules by Box-Behnken design-response surface methodology. METHODS: On the basis of single factor screening, a three-factor and three-level Box-Behnken experimental design was employed, with solvent ratio (X1), extraction pressure (X2) and extraction time(X3) as independent variables. Dependent variables were transformed into desirabilities mathematically by Hassan's method. Data of overall desirabilities were fitted to a second order polynomial equation, through which three dimensional response surface graphs were produced. Optimum experimental conditions were selected from the stationary point of the response surfaces. RESULTS: Regression coefficient of binomial fitting complex model was as high as 0.9878. The optimum conditions of UPE were as follows: the materials were extracted for 38 s with 24 times amount of water, the extraction pressure was 112.1 MPa, and the extraction was performed for one tine. The bias between observed and predicted values was 5.27%. CONCLUSION: As a novel extraction technology for Chinese herbal medicine, the UPE procedure has higher extraction yield, lower extracting temperature, shorter extracting time and less power consumption. The UPE has provided a brand new method for extraction of chlorogenic acid and forsythiaside from Jinqiao Reduqing granules.
