Platycodon Grandiflorum Extract Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Platycodon grandiflorum extract is the dried root extract of Platycodon grandiflorum Platycodongrandiflorum (Jacq.) A.DC., the main active ingredient is saponins, and also contains flavonoids, polysaccharides and anthocyanosides, fatty acids and fatty oils, trace elements and amino acids.

The anthocyanosides have antioxidant, eliminating free radicals, lowering blood cholesterol content, anti-tumour and anti-mutagenic effects.

Chromoside has good stability, good water solubility, high content, with the characteristics of natural pigments, so in the body to play a certain role in regulating physiological functions at the same time, Erythrina Chromoside can also be applied to food and beverages and other aspects of natural food colouring.

Uses of Platycodon Grandiflorum Extract.

Platycodon grandiflorum extract is obtained from the dried root of Platycodon grandiflorum, family Platycodonaceae, and has a variety of pharmacological effects. Platycodon grandiflorum extract contains a variety of active ingredients, of which Platycodon grandiflorum saponin is its main active ingredient.

Platycodon grandiflorum extract has the efficacy of promoting the lungs, inducing sore throat, expelling phlegm and draining pus, and can be used to treat cough, sore throat, bronchitis and other diseases. In addition, Platycodon grandiflorum extract has the effects of lowering blood sugar, lowering blood lipids, sedation, analgesia, antipyretic, vasodilator, slowing down the heart rate, antiulcer and so on.

Pharmacological Effect of Platycodon Grandiflorum Extract.

1. Hypoglycaemic effect

In normal rabbits, 200 mg/kg of aqueous or alcoholic extract of Platycodon grandiflorum can reduce blood glucose, similar to that of toluene sulfobutylurea.

Experimental tetrachloropyrimidine diabetic rabbits also have hypoglycemic effect, and can inhibit the rise of food glucose, the reduction of hepatic glucose in the drug is also seen in the recovery, of which the effect of alcoholic extract is stronger than that of aqueous extract.

2. Expectorant, cough suppressant effect

The ethanol extract of Platycodon grandiflorum and the aqueous decoction of the root can reduce the excretion of phenol red in the stomach, and have very significant expectorant effect. Mainly due to its saponins contained in the oral administration of stimulation of the hypopharyngeal nerve endings, reflexively cause hypersecretion of the respiratory tract, so that sputum diluted and easy to cough up.

Platycodonopsis saponins D, D3 may be effective phlegm components. Studies have shown that Platycodonis Saponin Capsule has obvious anti-inflammatory cough asthma expectorant effect on chronic bronchitis has a certain preventive and therapeutic effects.

3.Anti-tumour and antioxidant effects

Petroleum ether extract of Platycodon grandiflorum root has antioxidant effect, and the results of tetramethyl azole salt (MTT) colourimetric test show that the extract shows strong cytotoxicity in vitro against human colorectal cancer cells HT-29, ileo-caecal cancer cells HRT-18, and hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2.

The study showed that Platycodonopsis saponin D has the activity of significantly inhibiting the proliferation of human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) and human acute promyelocytic leukaemia cells (HL-60 cells). The specific mechanism of action and the structure-effect relationship of the anti-tumour activity of Platycodonopsis saponins need to be further investigated.

4、Antibacterial effect 

Platycodon grandiflorum aqueous infusion and decoction with test tube dilution method, 1:10 in vitro on the flocculent epidermolysis bullosa has inhibitory effect. The decoction 4.50% plate small ditch method, on the staphylococcus aureus, typhoid fever bacillus, dysentery bacillus fowleri, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli have inhibitory effect.

Extraction method of Platycodon Grandiflorum Extract.

Reflux method

Platycodon grandiflorus powder→add 7% ethanol-water sulfate (1:3) mixed solution→heating reflux 3h→cooling→trichloromethane extraction→combine extracts→wash with water, discard the washings→trichloromethane dehydrated with anhydrous sodium sulfate→filtration→evaporation of filtrate→total saponin

Alcohol extraction

Powder of Platycodon grandiflorum → add 95% ethanol → placed at room temperature for 1.5h → filtration, take the supernatant → rotary evaporation → to get dark brown viscous liquid → dried at 105 ℃ to constant weight → Platycodon grandiflorum saponin crude.

Hot water extraction method

Platycodon grandiflorum powder → add distilled water → room temperature 1.5h → filtration → distillation → dark brown viscous liquid → dried at 105 ℃ to constant weight → Platycodon grandiflorum saponin crude product
