Purification of Danshensu from Salvia miltiorrhiza Extract Using Graphene Oxide-Based Composite Adsorbent

Danshensu has generated significant interest due to its therapeutic properties as a cardiovascular, antitumor, and neurology drug. Column chromatography techniques that are currently used for the separation of danshensu from Salvia miltiorrhiza extract have some drawbacks such as high pressure drop, slow separation, and the need for organic solvents. We discuss the use of a novel composite adsorbent consisting of graphene oxide (GO)-modified …
