1. A method for manufacturing a composition for lowering blood lipid and elevating high-density lipoprotein, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
(1) providing a Monascus fermented product; (2) treating the Monascus fermented product with acetone for three times, so as to obtain an extract from the Monascus fermented product, wherein the ratio between the Monascus fermented product and the acetone is ranged from 1:10 to 1:50; (3) enhancing the concentration of the extract obtained from the step (2) by a process of decompress concentration in a specific temperature ranged between 40° C. and 60° C.; (4.1) adding the extract obtained from the step (3) into a silica gel column; (4.2) adding a plurality of washing solutions into the silica gel column sequentially, wherein the plurality of washing solutions are sequentially hexane, hexane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of hexane to ethanol being nine to 1 (9:1), hexane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of hexane to ethanol being eight to two (8:2), hexane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of hexane to ethanol being seven to three (7:3), hexane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of hexane to ethanol being five to five (5:5), and ethanol; (4.3) collecting 12˜15 fractions flowing out from the silica gel column; (4.4) analyzing the fractions collected in the step (4.3) by using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with a photodiode-array (PDA), and then collecting fractions containing monascin and ankaflavin; (4.5) mixing the fractions containing the monascin and the ankaflavin collected in the step (4.4), so as to form a pigment fraction; (5.1) adding the pigment fraction into a Sephadex LH-20 column; (5.2) adding a washing solution into the Sephadex LH-20 column, wherein the washing solution is a methanol acetonitrile mixture with the volume ratio of methanol to acetonitrile being nine to one (9:1); (5.3) collecting 3˜5 fractions flowing out from the Sephadex LH-20 column; (5.4) analyzing the fractions collected in the step (5.3) by using one HPLC-PDA, and further collecting fractions containing monascin and ankaflavin; (5.5) mixing the fractions containing the monascin and the ankaflavin collected in the step (5.4) to form a yellow pigment fraction; (6.1) adding the yellow pigment fraction obtained from step (5.5) into a silica gel column; (6.2) adding a plurality of washing solutions to the silica gel column sequentially, wherein the plurality of washing solutions are sequentially dichloromethane, dichloromethane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of dichloromethane to ethanol being ninety five to five (95:5), dichloromethane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of dichloromethane to ethanol being nine to one (9:1), and dichloromethane ethanol mixture with the volume ratio of dichloromethane to ethanol being four to one (4:1); (6.3) collecting 3˜5 fractions flowing out from the silica gel column; (6.4) analyzing the fractions collected in the step (6.3) by using a HPLC in combination with a PDA, and further collecting fractions containing monascin and ankaflavin; (6.5) mixing the fractions containing the monascin and the ankaflavin collected in the step (6.3) to form the fraction containing high-purity monascin and high-purity ankaflavin; (7.1) washing and separating the fraction containing the high-purity monascin and the high-purity ankaflavin obtained from the step (6.5) by using a C18 column in combination with one HPLC, wherein the washing solution is a methanol water mixture with the volume ratio of methanol to water is eighty five to fifteen (85:15); (7.2) collecting 2 fractions flowing out from the C18 column; and (7.3) analyzing the fractions collected in the step (7.2) by using a HPLC in combination with a PDA, and then collecting fractions containing the high-purity ankaflavin. |
