{Abstract}: In this study, high-performance liquid chromatography was used to determine four components of Shaoyao Gancao Decoction (SGD), and the effect of purification was evaluated using fingerprints, similarity analysis and cell experiments. An effective method for isolation and purification of SGD was established. The adsorption/desorption properties of SGD were evaluated using resin screening, isothermal analysis, adsorption kinetics, and dynamic adsorption-desorption experiments. It was shown that the Langmuir equation fitted the isotherm data well and that a pseudo-second-order model accurately described kinetic adsorption on AB-8 resin. Analysis of thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption process was exothermic. Under the optimal process conditions, the concentrations of albiflorin, paeoniflorin, liquiritin and ammonium glycyrrhizinate in the product were 73.05, 134.04, 45.04 and 75.00 mg/g, respectively. The yields of the four components were 71.89 %-86.19 %. Cell experiments showed that the purified SGD retained anti-inflammatory activity. This research lays the foundation for the separation and purification of SGD and subsequent preparation research.
