[Application and characteristics of macroreticular resin in purification study of different effective ingredients in Chinese medicines].
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the possibility of applying macroreticular resin to the purification of different effective ingredients in Chinese medicines and study its working characteristics.


METHODS
Four samples (water extracts of four single Chinese medicinal materials) containing alkaloids, anthraquinones, water soluble phenols and inorganic salts were employed.


RESULTS
LD605 resin is able to adsorb different effective ingredients except inorganic salts.


CONCLUSIONS
