The content of polysaccharide was determined by phenol sulfuric acid method. The research investigated FL-3 resin on the adsorption and desorption effect of Gentiana scabra Bunge polysaccharide. FL-3 resin was used to purify the polysaccharide. Using the adsorption rate and desorption amount of polysaccharide as the index, the FL-3 resin purification process of polysaccharide was studied. The optimum conditions for the adsorption and resolution of polysaccharide by FL-3 resin were obtained. The experimental results showed that the polysaccharide can be effectively adsorbed and desorbed by the FL-3 resin. The optimum purification conditions were as follows: the sample concentration was 5 mg/mL, the sample flow rate was 2 BV/h, the sample volume was 4 BV, the elution flow rate was about 2 BV/h, and the concentration of ethanol solution was 30%，the elution volume was 200 mL. After purification, the color of polysaccharide become shallow, and the content of that was increased from 26.42% to 71.29%.The recovery rate of polysaccharide was 49.52%.
