Optimizatoin of extraction technology of compound purgative Moringa Oleifera based on central composite design and response surface method

Abstract

Objective To optimize the extraction technology of Compound purgative Moringa Oleifera by central composite design-response surface method. Methods The content of isoquercetin and astragalin, the yield of dry extract and overall desirability (OD) were used as the evaluation indexes; the factors such as water addition, extraction times and time for extraction were employed to optimize extraction technology of central composite design-response surface method. Results Optimal extraction technology was as follows: 3 times extracted with 10-fold the amount of water for 1 h each time. Conclusions Central composite design-response surface method was suitable for optimizing extraction technology of compound purgative Moringa Oleifera. Key words: Extraction; Technology improving (TCD); Central composite design-response surface method; Compound purgative Moringa Oleifera
