Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To optimize the separate and purify technology of total flavonoid from Eriobotrya Japonica (Thunb.) Lindl., The antioxidant activity of total flavonoid was evaluated as well. METHODS Investigate the adsorption capacity and purification activity of resin, polyamide, silica gel. ABTS free radical-scavenging assay was used to test the antioxidant activity. RESULTS Resin D101 has the best activity to adsorb and purify total flavonoids, the optimal procedure is: 1g D101 resin, extract solution (1.5g powder of E. Japonica), water, 10%, 40% and 90% ethanol gradient elute, adsorbing rate 80mL?h-1 (9BV?h-1), 40% fraction is eluted and purified again by resin D101 with same process, then the 40% fraction was concentrated and dried to obtain total flavonoid. Total flavonoid showed a certain ABTS free radical-scavenging activity. CONCLUSION The repeated adsorption using resin D101 is the ideal method to separate and purify total flavonoid from E. Japonica.The total flavonoid of E. Japonica has a certain antioxidant activity.
