Objective To develop an efficient method for separating and purifying puerarin from the roots of Pueraria lobata.Methods Separation by fast centrifugal partition chromatography(FCPC)was processed with a biphasic solvent system composed of ethyl acetate-n-butanol-water(2:1:3).The separation conditions were determined as follows:sample loading of 10 mg,flow rate of 2 mL/min,rotation speed of 2200 r/min,ascending mode,and detection wavelength of 254 nm.High speed countercurrent chromatography(HSCCC)was used as a comparative method with the rotation speed of 800 r/min,flow rate of 2.0 mL/min,and sample loading of 10 mg in tail-to-head mode.Results Puerarin was obtained by FCPC with a resolution of 0.90 and a purity above 99%,while a resolution below 0.50 and a purity below 90%by HSCCC.Compared with HSCCC,FCPC has the advantages with higher purity and better resolution.Conclusion FCPC is a powerful method to separate and purify puerarin.
