Superficial CO2 Extraction Oil from Schisandra and the Component Differences Based on Regional
Schisandra Chinensis Baill from four places were extracted with superficial CO2 fluid extraction (SCDE) to explore the component differences based on regional. The condition of SCDE for Schisandra oil are: 18 MPa extraction pressure 6 Mpa , extraction temperature 40 °C and separate temperature for 90 minutes. The Schisandra oil were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), using the oil yield and the lignin content as the quality index of the Schisandra. The results will be compared with the results of organic solvent extraction. For the extraction of Schisandra oil, SCDE is superior to the organic solvent extraction. The component differences of the Schisandra oil from four different places are obvious, and the oil yield and the lignin content of Schisandra from Changbai Mountain in Jilin Province is the highest.
