Extraction of atropine from datura innoxia using liquid membrane technique

الملخص EN

Selective recovery of atropine from Dataram anoxia seeds was studied.

Applying pert-action in a rotating film contactor (RFC) the alkaloid was successfully recovered from native aqueous extracts obtained from the plant seeds.

Deane as a liquid membrane and sulfuric acid as a stripping agent were used.

Pertractionfrom native liquid extracts provided also a good atropine refinement, since the most of co-extracted from the plant species remained in the feed or membrane solution.

Solid-liquid extraction of atropine from Dataram anoxia seeds was coupled with RF-per traction in order to purify simultaneously the extract obtained from the plant.

Applying the integrated process, proposed in this study, a product containing 92.6% atropine was obtained.
