Abstract

In this paper,we studied the microwave-assisted extraction process of total saponins from com silk, and determined the optimum conditions through single-factor and orthogonal experiments.The results showed that the optimum conditions were as follows:ethanol concentration 60%,solid-to-liquid ratio 1:40,microwave temperature 60℃,the extraction time 30 minutes and extraction twice.Under the optimum conditions,the extraction rate of the total saponins reached 4.12%,which was higher than that of the solvent heating extraction method by about 12%;and the extraction time was shortened by 5/6.
