Comparative Studies on Methods of Extracting Polyacetylene Compounds from White Ginseng

인삼 Polyacetylene 성분의 추출방법 비교연구

The amounts of panaxynol and panaxydol, which are major polyacetylone compounds In white ginseng were determined by capillary-GC (FID), and the extraction efficiencies when using varictus extraction solvents (petroleum ether, dichloromethane, ether, ethyl acetate, acetone, acetonitrilr and methanol) and various extraction methods (shaking, Soxhlet and reflux) were compared . The GC column was SPB-1 fused silica capillary (0.25 mm id x30 m, Supelco), and the column oven temperature was programmed to rise from $200^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ at the rate of $4^{\circ}C$ per minute. The extraction efficiencies for panaxynol and panaxydol according to extraction souvtints were the highest in methanol and decreased in the order of dichloromethane, acetone, ether, ethyl acetate, acetonitrile and petroleum ether. The extracttion efficiencies for panaxynol and panaxydol according to extraction methods were the highest for reflux and the lowest for shaking, and those with Soxhlet were almost equal to those for reflux. The analytical amounts of panaxynol and panaxydol obtained by reflux with methanol %mere 4.2 and 6.4 mg/g, respectittely in white ginseng.

백삼의 주요 polyacetylene 성분인 panaxynol과 panaxydol을 capillary-GC(FID)로 정량하고 몇 가지 추출용매(석유 ether, dichloromethane, ether, ethyl acetate, acetone, acetonitrile and methanol) 및 추출방법(진탕추출, Soxhlet 추출 또는 환류추출)에 따른 이들 성분의 추출율을 비교하였다. 이 때, GC column은 SPB-1 fused silica capillary (0.25 mm id $\times$30 m, Supelco)를 사용하였고, column oven 의 온도는 $200^{\circ}C$에서 $300^{\circ}C$까지 분단 $4^{\circ}C$씩 승온하였다. 추출용매에 따른 panaxynol과 panaxydol의 추출율은 methanol 에 의하여 환류추출하는 방법이 백삼 중 polyacetylene 성분을 최대로 추출하는 조건인 것으로 사료되었는데, 이 추출방법에 의하여 얻어진 4년근 백삼시료의 panaxynol과 panaxydol의 함량분석값은 각각 4.2mg/g과 6.4mg/g이었다.
