Abstract: This invention relates to the compound extracted from husk and fruit stem of Xanthoceras Sobifolia and its extracting method and use thereof.

Abstract: This invention proposed applications of the extracted materials from shell of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge to making drugs for enhancing brain functions. The extracted materials from the shell of X. sorbifolia include 2˜10 percent of crude fats, 15˜20 percent of crude protein, 15˜25 percent of Bunkankasaponin A. B. C. D., 20˜30 percent of sugar and 7˜12 percent of water as well as two kinds of sterols of (3&bgr;,5&agr;,20R,24S)-stigmasta-7, trans-22-dien-3-ol and (3&bgr;,5&agr;,20R,24R)-stigmasta-7-en-3-ol. The applications of this invention shows evidently effective for curing diseases of mental retardation and deficiency, dementia, enuresis, and increasing body's ability of resistance to activity of glycosuria. The extracted materials can also be made of functional foods for increasing brain's functions.

Abstract: It is discovered that Bunkankasaponin A. B. C. D., crude fats, crude proteins and sugar can be extracted from the shell of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge. The shell of X. sorbifolia used to be treated as waste material and not be utilized at all. This invention extracts 15˜25 percent of Bunkankasaponin A. B. C. D., 2˜10 percent of crude fats, 15˜30 percent of crude proteins, 20˜30 percent of sugar from the shell of X. sorbifolia. These extracts can be used making drugs to treat people with mental retardation and deficiency, etc., and has shown good effectiveness. The extracts can also be used as brain functional foods. The applications of these extracts from the shell of X. sorbifolia will convert the waste into useful materials and produce significant economic and social benefits.
