Abstract

By reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, the extraction and separation of glabridin by from licoricce root was performed in this work. The column efficiencies and resolutions of glabridin were investigated with mobile phase composition on the reversed-phase chromatographic system. The glabridin collected from licorice root was identified by LC/MS. The mobile phase used to extract glabridin were composed of ethanol, methanol, acetone, and ethyl acetate. For one-hour ultrasonic extraction with solvent of ethyl acetate, the favorable content of glabridin was obtained as 1.26g/kg. The glabridin was well separated in the mobile phase composition of 50/50 vol. % (acetonitrile/water).

피부미백효과 및 항산화물질로 알려진 glabridin은 감초뿌리 (Glycyrrhiza glabra)에 포함되어 있는 성분으로서 추출 및 HPLC에 의한 분리에 관한 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 용매에 따른 추출정도를 알기위하여 메탄올, 에탄올, 에틸아세테이트 및 아세톤 등 4가지 용매로 1시간동안 초음파 추출하여 HPLC에서 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 에틸아세테이트의 추출용매가 1260.0 mg/kg으로 가장 함량이 높았으며, 에탄올, 메탄올, 아세톤 순으로 나타났다. HPLC의 역상 컬럼에서 이동상의 조성을 아세토나이트릴/물 (50/50, vol. %)으로 사용했을 때 체류시간은 20.3분이였으며, 에틸아세테이트로 추출한 시험용액을 LC/MS로 확인하였다.
