[Studies on extraction and purification of active parts of ferulic acid from Ligusticun chuanxiong].
OBJECTIVE
To study on the process of extraction and purification of active parts from Ligusticun chuanxiong.


METHODS
The processes of extraction and purification of active parts of ferulic acid were optimized by direct comparison and orthogonal design.


RESULTS
Extract rate of active parts of ferulic acid was 1.67% and the content of ferulic acid was 5.82%.


CONCLUSIONS
Active parts of ferulic acid from L. chuanxiong were extracted and purified effectively.
