[Research advances of macroporous resin]

Abstract

We surveyed the literatures domestic and abroad, and summarized the physical and chemical characterizations as well as preparation and applications of macroporous resin. The research of physical parameter and chemical parameter includes the measurement of the organic residue, the application research includes the separation and purification methods of the phytochemical ingredients. Macroporous resin show its advantages in the field of phytochemical studies, traditional Chinese medicine development and production, but there exist some disadvantages in its performance and application. It's necessary to establish the quality standard and the technical specifications to promote the standardization of the research and the application of the macroporous resin.
