Objective: To optimize extraction technology of volatile oil from Cortex Cercis Chinensis by central composite design and response surface methodology. Method: With yield of volatile oil as dependent variable
based on single factor tests
central composite design-response surface methodology was adopted to optimize extraction technology by taking soaking time
extraction time and the amount of water as independent variables
through multiple linear regression and binomial fitting of each level of independent variables to prediction analysis of extraction technology. Result: Optimum process conditions were as follows:soaked 1 h with 14 times the amount of water
extraction time 5 h;Yield of volatile oil was 0.8%
average mass of volatile oil was 0.391 2 g with a small deviation between the predicted value(0.391 5 g). Conclusion: This optimized extraction process was simple and reasonable with a good predictability.
