Abstract:

Objective: The extraction and separation conditions of cerebrosides from sea cucumbers were investigated. Methods:The objective substances were extracted with mixture of chloroform and methanol, primarily isolated with petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, further isolated by silica gel column chromatography, purified by HPLC, and structurally identified by GC-MS. Results: Cerebrosides were successfully extracted and purified from sea cucumbers.

Key words: cucumber, cerebroside, extraction and isolation, HPLC
