STUDY OF BAICALIN HYDROLYSIS KINETICS IN THE PROCESS OF ITS EXTRACTION FROM SCUTELLARIA BAICALENSIS GEORGI ROOTS by N. N. Boyko, D. I. Pisarev, E. T. Zhilyakova, A. Yu. Maljutina, O. O. Novikov, M. A. Bocharnikova

“…The experimental points of dependency of baicalin concentration in the extract on the time of extraction for ethanol solutions with a concentration of 43 and 72% v/v are closely approximated by a linear equation in coordinates lnC=f(t). The value of determination coefficient is more than R²˃0,99. Half lifetime for baicalin has been calculated: for ethanol with the concentration of 43% v/v it is 4.3±0.7 hours, and for ethanol with the concentration of 72% v/v it is 42.3±1.8 hours.Conclusion. …”
