Abstract:Objective: To study the conditions and parameters of purifying 2,3,5,4′-tetrahydroxy-stilbene-2-O-β-D-glycoside from Polygonum multiflori.Method:Absorption capacity of four resins for 2,3,5,4′-tetrahydroxy-stilbene-2-O-β-D-glycoside was compared.With the adsorption ability as indexes, the process of absorbing and purifying 2,3,5,4′-tetrahydroxy-stilbene-2O-β-D-glycoside from P.multiflori with S-8 macroporous resin absorbent was selected by orthogonal design.Result: The S-8 resin was the best of the four resins.The optimum process condition was 50% ethanol as eluting solvent,the flow rate at 1.5 mL·min-1,pH at 7-8,and the solution concentration at 0.2 g·mL-1.The absorption capacity by this process was 36.89 mg·g-1.Conclusion: The process is simple and convenient and the regeneration of resin is easy,So this method of purification is advisable.
