Table 1. Comparison of separation and purification methods currently used in separating C. tinctoria flavonoids
 
Purification methodsAdvantagesDisadvantages
Macroporous adsorption resin methodGood yield and purity; simple equipment and easy operation; multiple types of adsorbents, wide range of applications; reusable/regenerable resin, long service life; overall low cost, suitable for industrial productionBad desorption effect; time consuming; separation affected by adsorbent performance, eluent type, temperature, etc.
Polyamide column chromatographyGood separation effect and high product purity; good specificity; large sample capacity; reusable/regenerable resin, overall low cost, suitable for industrial productionLong separation period; large void adsorption volume; co-elution with low molecular weight impurities; adsorption process readily affected by solvents
Silica gel column chromatographyLarge adsorption capacity and wide application range; easy separation effect; broad use; inexpensive materialLow separation efficiency; disposable material, organic solvent elution
Sephadex gel chromatographyWide range of use; good separation efficiency; reusable/regenerable resinElution influenced by the number of phenolic hydroxyl groups and size and molecular weight of molecules; expensive materials
High-speed counter current chromatography or high-performance counter current chromatographyHigh purity of product; good reproducibility; separation of multiple components; automationHigh cost; low productivity; low separation capacity; often time consuming
Reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographyGood separation; multiple component separation capacity; automationVery high cost equipment; low capacity; hard to meet animal study
