To study optimum inclusion process conditions for volatile oil from Aucklandia lappa.
The study was carried out with orthogonal design. The process conditions were studied by determining the utilization ratio of volatile oil from Aucklandia lappa, the oil-bearing rate and extract ratio of inclusion compound.
The optimum preparation conditions for inclusion were established as: oil: beta-CD was 1:8, the inclusion temperature and time were at 40 degrees C and for 1 h respectively, the utilization ratio of oil is 87.1%.
The method can be used for production of beta-CD on a large scale.
