Methods The constituents were separated and purified by different chromatographic methods, and their structures were elucidated by MS and NMR. Results Six compounds were isolated from Asterias amurensis Lutken. Their structures were identified as 3β-O-sulfated-cholest-5-en sodium salt (1), 3β-O-sulfated-6α-ol- pregn-9( 11 ) -en-20-one sodium salt ( 2 ), 3β-O-sulfated-6α-ol-cholest-9 ( 11 ) -en-23-one sodium salt (3), 3β-O-sulfated-6α, 20β-diol-cholest-9 ( 11 )-en-23-one sodium salt ( 4 ), 3β-O-sulfated-6α-ol- cholesta-9 ( 11 ), 20 ( 22 ) -dien-23-one sodium salt ( 5 ), and 3β-O-sulfated-6ct-ol-ergost-9 ( 11 ) -en-23- one sodium salt (6).

Polysaccharides from T. amurensis flowers were isolated and determined by spectrophotometry. Results show that the optimal ultrasonic temperature was 75℃ and ex tracting time 52 min. The content of polysaccharides in T. amurensis flowers measured by anthrone--H2SO4 colorimetry under 580 nm, was 9.74% with 0.47% of relative standard deviation (RSD, n=3). This study demonstrated that ultrasonic extraction method was simple, and the color of the treated samples was stable in 4 h. The average recovery value for the polysaccharides measured was 99.48%±1.01%, with 0.112% of RSD (n=3).展开更多
