Abstract
Optimization of four factors, namely methanol concentration ( A ), extraction pH value ( B ), material-to-solvent ratio ( C ) and extraction times ( D ), for extraction of ustiloxins A and B from rice false smut balls was achieved by using an L 18 orthogonal array design with three levels and four factors. The results show that the optimum conditions for ustiloxins A and B extraction should be A 1 B 2 C 2 D 3 corresponding to methanol concentration at 10%, extraction pH value at 6, material-to-solvent ratio at 1:30 (g/mL) and extraction times as 3, respectively. Under the optimum extraction condition, the content of ustiloxins A and B in rice false smut balls was analyzed to be 0.80 and 0.57 mg/g, respectively, on a dry weight basis.
