Objective : To optimize the extraction technology of total flavonoids from Tricyrtis maculata. Methods : With UV spectro- photometry as detection method and the content of total flavonoids as index, using single factor experimrnt and L9 (34) orthogonal test, the optimal condition was deterined. Results:The best extraction technology was as follows:soaked the medicinal materials for 15 mi- nutes, water-decoted for 3 times, the solid-water ratio was 1: 45,1: 40,1: 40 and the decotion time was 1,0. 5,0.5 h respectively. Con- clusion:The optimal extraction technolo...
