OBJECTIVE： To optimize the purification technology of total flavonoids from Sparganium stoloniferum. METHODS： Separation and purification by macroporus adsorption resin， using sample solution pH， flow rate and concentration of eluent， the purification rate of total flavonoids as evalution indexes， the purification technology of total flavonoids from S. stoloniferum were optimized by Box-Behnken design-response surface methodology based on single factor test. Validation test was conducted. RESULTS： The optimal purification technology was sample solution pH 4.8， flow rate of eluent 2.0 BV/h， concentration of eluent 72％. The purification rate of total flavonoids in 3 batches of samples was 72.34％ （RSD＝1.77％， n＝3） in validation test， relative errors of which to predicted value （73.99％） was 2.13％. CONCLUSIONS： The optimal purification technology is stable and feasible， and can be used for the purification of total flavonoids from S. stoloniferum.
