Abstract: | Lycopene was isolated from 100 mg of crude extract of tomato paste containing about 9% of lycopene. Analytical high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was first used for the systematic selection of the two-phase solvent system. Then preparative HSCCC separation was performed with a nonaqueous solvent system composed of n-hexane-dichloromethane-acetonitrile at an optimum volume ratio of 10:3.5:6.5. This yielded 8.6 mg of lycopene at over 98.5% purity as determined by HPLC analysis. |
