Abstract:

Objective: To compare the effects of normal and superfine comminution on leaching of ginsenosides in Panax ginseng. Method: The contents of ginseosides in Panax ginseng powders of different particle sizes (1-12 mm, 0.5-1 mm, 200-500 nm, 200 nm, and 20-80 nm) were determined using RP-HPLC method developed. Results: The determined value of content of ginseosides in 0.5-1 μm particle-size Panax ginseng powder was notably higher than those of others. Conclusion: Superfine comminution can effectively promote the leaching of ginsenosides from Panax ginseng.

Key words: Panax ginseng, superfine comminution, ginsenoside
