[Extraction optimization study of flavonoids from Humulus lupulus].
OBJECTIVE: To optimize extracting parameters of flavonoids from Humulus lupulus. METHOD: Based on the single factors test on ethanol concentration, material and solvent ratio, extracting temperature and extracting time, orthogonal test was performed and the best combination was confirmed. RESULT: With the optimized technology, the maximal extracting amount of flavonoids from H. lupulus was 78 mg x g(-1). CONCLUSION: The optimal techniques obtained are 45% ethanol extracting at 60 degrees C with material and solvent ratio 1:25 for 90 min.
