Product Description:
Plant extracts serve as the carrier of modern phytomedicine science and technology and constitute the primary raw material for botanical pharmaceutical preparations. Traditional botanical extraction methods involve a series of processes including maceration, percolation, decoction, reflux, and continuous extraction. Throughout the extraction process, factors such as solvent concentration, solid-to-liquid ratio, extraction temperature, and extraction time directly influence the yield of active compounds.
Ultrasonic botanical extraction utilises the intense vibration and cavitation effects generated by ultrasound to form microscopic bubbles within the liquid. These bubbles rapidly expand and collapse, producing powerful shear forces that fracture and agitate plant cell walls. This mechanism enables the rapid release of active compounds from plant cells into the solvent, thereby accelerating the release, diffusion, and dissolution of intracellular materials while preserving the structure and bioactivity of the extracted substances. The principle of ultrasonic extraction is predominantly physical.
Compared with traditional extraction methods, ultrasonic botanical extraction significantly reduces processing time, requires less solvent, achieves higher extraction rates, and offers superior efficiency. Ultrasonic extraction technology can be applied across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and cosmetics.

Product Advantages:
1. Ultrasonic botanical extraction is largely unrestricted by the choice of solvent and allows for the addition of co-extraction agents to further increase the polarity of the liquid phase, thereby improving extraction efficiency.
2. Compared with supercritical CO₂ extraction and ultra-high pressure extraction, ultrasonic extraction requires simpler equipment and results in lower operational costs.
3. Unlike traditional boiling or reflux methods, ultrasonic extraction typically does not require heating, preventing heat damage to active compounds over time. This makes it particularly suitable for extracting thermosensitive substances.
4. In most cases, ultrasonic extraction involves fewer steps and a simpler process, reducing the risk of contaminating the extract.
5. Ultrasonic extraction technology increases the yield of active compounds, ensures optimal utilisation of raw materials, and reduces solvent consumption, delivering significant economic benefits.
6. Ultrasonic botanical extraction is a physical process; no chemical reactions occur during the extraction, so the activity of the active components is largely preserved.
FAQ:

Saponins
Polysaccharides
Ultrasound is suitable for extracting a variety of plant active ingredients.
How efficient is ultrasonic botanical extraction?
The extraction yield of ultrasonic plant extraction is influenced by various factors including temperature, time, solvent, and sample type.
Taking alkaloid extraction as an example:
When extracting stramonium alkaloids from Datura leaves, ultrasonic extraction for 30 minutes yields 9% more alkaloid content than conventional decoction for 3 hours. For alkaloid extraction from ipecac root, ultrasonic treatment for 30 minutes produces a higher alkaloid yield than Soxhlet extraction for 5 hours. In the extraction of berberine from Coptis chinensis, ultrasonic extraction achieves over 50% higher berberine yield than alkaline soaking for 24 hours.
