Objective:
To optimize the extracting condition of fatty constituents from Tabanus bivittatus and analyse by GC-MS.
Methods:
Taking fatty yield as index, the extraction technology parameters of fatty constituents of Tabanus bivittatus ere optimized by single factor test and orthogonal test.
Results:
The optimum extraction parameters were as follows: the ratio of acetone to petroleum ether 1: 2, extraction time 2 h, solid-liquid ratio 1: 50. Twenty-one fatty acids were identified by GC-MS.
Conclusion:
The process is reasonable and with good reproducibility. The main components of fatty acids in Tabanus bivittatus are palmitoleic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid and stearic acid.
