    Abstract:
    Salvianolic acid B was separated and purified from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (danshen) by microbial transformation together with chromatography of microsphere resin. The aqueous extract of danshen was transformed by Fusarium graminearum in a bioreactor containing phosphate buffer (PBS), in which rosmarinic acid was transformed into danshensu and caffeic acid and the yield of salvianolic acid B was higher than 85%. After biotransformation, salvianolic acid B was purified by microsphere resin. A parallel test for making a comparison of microsphere resin chromatography between elution by methanol water solution and water was done. The purity of salvianolic acid B was up to 95% at the yield of 62% when impurities and salvianolic acid B were eluted by 45% and 55% methanol solution respectively. The purity of salvianolic acid B was up to 99% at the yield of 90% when distilled water was used to elute the impurities and salvianolic acid B. The total yield of salvianolic acid B was up to 75% at the purity over 99% while biotransformation combined with microsphere resin chromatography by water elution. Microbial biotransformation together with water elution of microsphere resin supplied an efficient method to eliminate the micromolecular impurities and a possible method to purify water-soluble compounds in traditional Chinese medicine.
