Pilot Plant Processing Data for the Isolation of Artemisinin from the New Variety of Artemisia annua ‘Jeevanraksha’

Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: Artemisia annua, known, as 'qinghao' in China is a major source of artemisinin, used for the synthesis of many potent drugs effective against malaria caused by chloroqunine sensitive and resistant strain of Plasmadium falciparum. CIMAP has recently developed a new variety of Artemisia annua 'Jeevanraksha' containing high levels of artemisinin. Processing parameters for an improved and economic process for the isolation of artemisinin from Artemisia annua have been standardised that are useful for commercial equipment design.
