 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Fibrous roots of Ophiopogon japonicus characteristics of ultra-fine powders Of: Zhangqing Dong Gou Synergy Shu Xiaoyan Wang Yongsheng Xu Jianrong [Abstract] Objective To explore the common fibrous roots Ophiopogon japonicus between powder and fine powder surface characteristics and dissolution of differences, in order to make better use of resources Ophiopogon japonicus fibrous roots. Methods ordinary optical microscope, electron microscope and ultra-fine powder of ordinary powder morphological observation, by particle size, distribution width, surface area, bulk density, compression level and extract their common determination methods such as powder and comparative analysis of ultra-fine powders. Results Compared with ordinary powder, superfine powder uniform particle size, average particle size D50 is 15.108m, 5.8 times lower than that of ordinary powder; bulk density and compression degree of decline; specific surface area increased 2.6 times; water and alcohol extract of the dried extract were increased by 45% and 457%. Conclusion The ultra-fine grinding fibrous Ophiopogon japonicus, the particle size distribution, homogeneity was improved, specific surface area and water, alcohol-soluble compounds leaching increased significantly, thereby improving bioavailability. [Keywords:] ultra-fine powder; Ophiopogon japonicus; fibrous roots; leaching; powder characteristics Abstract: ObjectiveTo develop the fibrous root of Ophiopogon japonicus (O. japonicus) by ultra-fine powder (UFP) technology, and the powder characteristics, and the contents of water extract and ethanol extract were investigated between UFP and common powder (CP). MethodsThe morphological characters of UFP and CP of the fibrous root of O. japonicus were observed with optional microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. Powder of the fibrous root of O. japonicus was characterized by laser diffraction analyzer and its compressibility and bulk de
