Abstract

The invention relates to an aqueous two-phase separation method for total flavonoids, saponins and polysaccharides in astragalus. The method comprises the following steps of smashing an astragalus medicinal material; adding a solvent and performing solid-liquid extraction; filtering and removing impurities to obtain crude extract of the total flavonoids and the saponins of the astragalus; taking and concentrating the crude extract of the astragalus; adding an aqueous two-phase system formed by absolute ethyl alcohol / dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, adding water to make the total amount of the system be a constant value; mixing uniformly and standing, wherein the aqueous two-phase system is divided into an upper phase and a lower phase; taking an ethanol phase which contains a large amount of total flavonoids and saponins of the astragalus out; and concentrating the ethanol phase under a reduced pressure to obtain the extract of the total flavonoids of the astragalus. The method has the beneficial effects that the extraction rate of the total flavonoids and the total saponins of the astragalus; simultaneously the total flavonoids and the total saponins can be separated from the polysaccharides of the astragalus in the crude extract; the used solvent is low in toxicity, favorable to environment friendliness and low in cost; the inactivation or the denaturation of the flavonoids and the saponins of the astragalus cannot be caused; the phase separation time is short; the interfacial tension is low; and residual organic solvent does not exist.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of separation and purification of effective components of natural products, and relates to a method for separating astragalus flavonoids, saponins and polysaccharides by two-phase extraction. Background technique [0002] Astragalus membranaceus is the dried root of the leguminous plant Astragalus membranaceus or Astragalus membranaceus. The main active ingredients in Astragalus are flavonoids, saponins and polysaccharides. The flavonoids mainly include formononetin, ononion, calycosin and their glycosides. Studies have confirmed that the total flavonoids of astragalus have the ability to scavenge O 2- · and OH- prevent biofilm peroxidation, and can also significantly inhibit OH- damage to DNA. It is the main component of Astragalus anti-oxidation, which is manifested as significant anti-hepatotoxicity, anti-inflammation, antibacterial and heart protection. The role of the vascular system. Astragalus total saponin...
