Abstract: Pomegranate flowers contain flavonoid compounds. In this test the total flavonoids contents are assayed by using spectroscopic methods with rutin as a standard. The results showed that the optimum extracting conditions are 45% ethanol with 1:60 solid liquid ratio and heated at 60℃ for an hour. The results can provide important theoretical basis for exploitation of pomegranate resources.

Key words: pomegranate flowers, total flavonoids, spectroscopic method, extraction technology
