How is this Astragalus root oil extracted, and which method is preferred?

Astragalus root oil is produced by supercritical CO2 extraction (the mainstream premium route), traditional steam distillation, or the patented ethanol-soak + steam synergistic process.

Extraction Methods

MethodKey parametersNotes
Supercritical CO2 extraction (preferred)25–27 MPa, 50–52°C, 3–4 hAstragaloside IV retention ≥92.3%; calycosin-7-O-glucoside isomerization loss only ≤1.2% (vs 7.8% for aqueous ethanol extraction); polysaccharide yield +67%; batch pass rate 98.8%
Steam distillation (traditional)50–6000 L stills, 0.3 MPa jacketLower yield, classical aroma profile
Patented synergistic route (CN117736806A)Ethanol soak (40–60 mesh powder) + petroleum-ether ultrasonic (50–60 min, 20–25°C) + sc-CO2 (25–27 MPa, 50–52°C, 3–4 h) + steam extraction (6–10 h, bentonite + 15–18% NaCl brine)Highest marker recovery for premium/lab grades
Supercritical CO2 extraction is recommended when maximum Astragaloside IV and isoflavone-glycoside retention is required; steam distillation is chosen for the classic distilled-aroma profile.
