[Study on the process of inclusion volatile oil of Herba Schizonepetae with beta-cyclodextrin from xiao'er ganmaoshu granule].

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study optimum inclusion process condition for volatile oil with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD). METHODS: The optimum preparation condition were investigated by orthogonal design. The influence of utilization beta-CD and oil, inclusion temperature and time were studied to determin the utilization ratio of volatile oil and oil-bearing rate. RESULTS: The optimum preparation conditions were established as volatile oil beta-CD was 110, the inclusion temperature was 60 degrees C and inclusion time was 3h. CONCLUSION: The method is convenient and can he used for mass production.
