The effects of ultra - fine powder technique on dissolution rates of the flavonoids in Frutus Aurantii lmmaturus (FAI) were explored. Using 0. 05% H3PO4 water solution -CH3OH -CH3CN as mobile phase, high performance liquid chromatography was employed to determine the concentration of hesperidin, naringin and narirutin in common powdered and ultra - fine powdered FAI. The results were that the dissolution rates of hesperidin, naringin and narirutin in ultra - fine powdered FAI were higher than those of the general powder, and ultra - fine powder technique promot...
