Abstract
The present invention relates to development of a simplified process for purification of
kutkin from Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth. Particularly, this invention relates to
separation of kutkin (also known as picroliv R) from Picrorhiza kurroa underground parts by
aqueous alcohol extraction, solvent - solvent partition, treatment with activated charcoal to
remove colouring matters. The processing steps of the invention results into 2.0-3.0% yield.
The process gave higher recovery of picroliv from the extract and 3.2% from plant powder
(dry basis).
