ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of microemulsion on the distribution of index components in different phases of Zexietang extract based on high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) and phase separation process. MethodParticle size meter and transmission electron microscope were used to characterize the colloidal particles in blank microemulsion, aqueous extract of Zexietang and microemulsion extract of Zexietang. The phase separation process was established by high-speed centrifugation and dialysis, and based on this process, the aqueous extract and microemulsion extract of Zexietang were separated into the true solution phase, the colloidal phase and the precipitation phase, respectively. The contents of six components, including atractylenolide Ⅲ, atractylenolide Ⅱ, 23-acetyl alisol C, alisol A, alisol B and alisol B 23-acetate, were determined by HPLC with the mobile phase of water(A)-acetonitrile(B) for gradient elution(0-5 min, 40%-43%B; 5-20 min, 43%-45%B; 20-45 min. 45%-60%B; 45-75 min, 60%-80%B). The solubility of the index components in water and microemulsion was determined by saturation solubility method. ResultThe colloidal particles in the aqueous extract, microemulsion extract and blank microemulsion were all spherical, and the particle size, polydispersity index(PDI) and Zeta potential of the colloidal particles were in the order of aqueous extract >microemulsion extract >blank microemulsion. The results of phase separation showed that the colloidal phase and the true solution phase could be completely separated by dialysis for 2.5 h, and the phase separation process was tested to be stable and feasible. Compared with the aqueous extract of Zexietang, the use of microemulsion as an extraction solvent could increase the contents of atractylenolide Ⅲ, 23-acetyl alisol C, atractylenolide Ⅱ , alisol A, alisol B and alisol B 23-acetate by 3.75, 6.82, 35.47, 10.66, 35.41, 27.75-fold, and could increase the extraction efficiencies of the latter five constituents by 2.03, 1.15, 1.70, 6.43, 5.53 times. The solubility test showed that the microemulsion could significantly improve the solubility of atractylenolide Ⅱ, alisol A, alisol B and alisol B 23-acetate, but it had less effect on the solubility of atractylenolide Ⅲ and 23-acetyl alisol C. ConclusionMicroemulsion can improve the extraction efficiency and increase the distribution of the index components in the colloidal phase state of Zexietang to different degrees, providing a reference for the feasibility of microemulsion as an extraction solvent for traditional Chinese medicine.
