8.Sample test:
Under the above chromatographic conditions, the comparison product solution and sample solution are absorbed precisely after the instrument is stabilized and the baseline is stabled
The retention time of genistein is about 6min. The purity of the sample is calculated by area external standard method.
A1×W0× V1× K ×100
Purity( %)= A0×V0×W1
A1: Peak area of genistein in sample solution.
A0:Peak area of genistein in comparison product solution
W1: Weighing sample weight mg W0: Weighing sample weight mg of comparison product
V1: Sample dimension ml
V0: Comparison products dimensionml
K:Comparison products purity
Sample purity results are take the average of two parallel sample purity.
A brief introduction to the process of genistine
1、Extract
After crushing, the raw material of horse bean reached about 20 mesh, and was extracted 3 times with 75% ethanol by hot reflux, then concentrated into an extract with a specific gravity of 1.2
2、Extraction From
The extracted extractumis dissolved by adding an appropriate concentration of hydrochloric acid, the insoluble matter was filtered by standing, the PH value was adjusted by sodium hydroxide, and then trichloromethane was extracted for three times, and the extraction solution was concentrated.
3、Chromatography
Dissolve the extract and add appropriate amount of silica gel and mix it thoroughly. After drying, use 200-300 silica gel ethyl acetate ring/hexane system gradient chromatography, TLC detection and stage concentration.
4、Crystal
More than 95% of genitine was collected by chromatography, which was crystallized by ethanol and acetone, and the content of genitine reached more than 98%
5、Crushing dry
The product was put into phosphorus pentoxide and dried in a vacuum drying oven at a constant temperature for 48 hours
6、Detection of the packing
The finished product is sampled and tested according to the standard of the enterprise.
After passing the test, the product is packed and stored in the warehouse.
Process description:
This process is our company’s original technology, in the process does not use benzene, carbon tetrachloride and other organic solvents which are very harmful to human body, only the main organic solvents used are ethanol, cyclohexane, ethyl acetate, acetone and so on, the rest are pure water.
The above process is for reference only. The specific parameters of our company have reservations, please understand!
