Table 2. Moisture content, dry yield, and extraction yield by solvents of Aster glehni (AG) and dried A. glehni (DAG)

Sample Moisture content (%)1) Dry yield (%)2) Extraction yield (%)3)
Hot water 70% ethanol 100% ethanol
AG 85.87±0.11 18.20 41.06 23.29 18.31
DAG 84.06±0.09 21.45 36.61 38.27 33.58
All values are mean±SD (n=3).
Dry yield (%) = (Sample weight afer lyophilization / Sample weight before lyophilization) × 100.
Extract yield (%) = (Extract weight afer lyophilization / Extract weight before lyophilization) × 100.
