OBJECTIVE: To optimize the soxhlet extraction technology of Atractylodis macrocephalae, and to provide evidence for research and preparation of its formula granules. METHODS: Using the contents of atractylenolide Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ as index, based on single factor test, the Soxhlet extraction technology of A. macrocephalae formula granules was optimized and verified by L9(34) orthogonal test with extraction time, solid-liquid ratio, extraction times as factors, and then compared with other technologies (normal temperature extraction method, ultrasonic extraction method, reflux extraction method). RESULTS: The optimal extraction technology was as follows as 6-fold ethanol, extracting for 3 times, lasting for 8 h. Results of validation test showed that the extraction amounts of atractylenolide were 0.769, 0.752, 0.781 mg/g (RSD=1.99%, n=3) for 3 times, which were higher than the extraction amounts of other 3 methods (0.683, 0.489, 0.693 mg/g). CONCLUSIONS: The optimized extraction technology possesses high extraction rates of atractylenolide Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and can be used for the extraction of internal ether from A. macrocephalae formula granules.
