Abstract: Depending on the detection of RP-HPLC,the change trend of the extraction rate of anthocyanins from Vaccinium uliginosum L. with the hydrochloric acid concentration was investigated. The best hydrochloric acid concentration is determined as 1.5 mol/L. The Vaccinium uliginosum L.extracts were purified by AB-8 macroporous resin,polyamide resin (eluted with 80% or 40% ethanol solution) and combination of the two resins,respectively,and four anthocyanins samples were obtained and then detected by RP-HPLC. The results showed that the anthocyanins purity of the four samples are 13.36397%,36.95687%,13.21466% and 8.559135%,respectively. According to the above results,the polyamide resin is apparently better than AB-8 macroporous resin in the purification of anthocyanins,and the anthocyanins purity is increased by 23.5%.
