An ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric (UPLC-MS) method was developed to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of ephedrine, methylephedrine, amygdalin, and glycyrrhizic acid after oral gavage of Ma Huang Tang (MHT) in Beagles. Beagle plasma samples were pretreated using
Dietary supplements that contain Ma Huang (ephedra alkaloids) and guarana (caffeine) are widely marketed and used in the U.S. for weight loss and athletic performance enhancement, despite a lack of adequate research on the pharmacology of these botanical stimulants. We developed and applied a novel
Dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DM-beta-CD) modified capillary electrophoresis has been developed for chiral separation of ephedrine and related compounds, such as (+/-)-norephedrine, (+/-)-N-methylephedrine, (+/-)-ephedrine and (+)-pseudoephedrine. The influence of some crucial parameters such as
Acute effect of Mao-Bushi-Saishin-To (Ma-Huang-Fu-Zi-Xi-Xin-Tang in Chinese: MBS) on histamine release was investigated. The IgE-mediated anaphylaxic response in Wistar rats was significantly suppressed by MBS and Mao. However, Saishin and Bushi had no or little effect on the antigen-mediated
An international collaborative study was conducted of a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-UV method for the determination of the major (ephedrine [EP] and pseudoephedrine [PS]) and minor (norephedrine [NE], norpseudoephedrine [NP], methylephedrine [ME], and methylpseudoephedrine [MP])
The preliminary validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography particle beam mass spectrometry method (HPLC-PB/MS) with electron impact ionization source for analysis of botanical extracts is presented. The LC-PB/MS system was evaluated for the analysis of ephedrine alkaloids using
A coupling method of field-amplified sample injection (FASI) CE with amperometric detection is developed for ultratrace analysis of ephedrine alkaloids stereoisomers. FASI was introduced by injecting electrokinetically the sample solution for 10 s into the capillary filled with highly conductive
The content of ephedra alkaloids in herbal dietary supplements containing ephedra (ma huang) was studied. The ephedra alkaloid content of 20 ephedra-containing supplements was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Contents of (-)-ephedrine, (+)-pseudoephedrine, (-)-methylephedrine,
Herbal formulas containing ephedra herb (mao-zai) are among the most important medicinal prescriptions in Japanese traditional kampo medicine to treat cold symptoms, bronchial asthma, arthralgia, and rheumatism. Shokan-zatsubyo-ron (Shanghan zabing lun in Chinese), a classical textbook of kampo
Six Ephedra alkaloids, namely ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, norephedrine, norpseudoephedrine, methylephedrine and methylpseudoephedrine, in 12 species of Chinese Ephedra were successfully separated and determined by gas chromatography with the highly specific and sensitive nitrogen phosphorus detector
The contents of six Ephedra alkaloids, namely ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, norephedrine, norpseudoephedrine, methylephedrine and methyl-pseudoephedrine, in 12 species of Chinese Ephedra collected in 24 districts were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Zorbax CN column (25 cm
An interlaboratory study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy and precision of a method for ephedrine-type alkaloids [i.e., norephedrine (NE), norpseudoephedrine (NPE), ephedrine (E), pseudoephedrine (PE), methylephedrine (ME), and methylpseudoephedrine (MPE)] in dietary supplements and
The resources of wild Ephedra plants in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were surveyed. Ephedra plants mainly grow on the fringes of the Taklimakan Desert and Gureban-tonggute Desert. We found six genotypes of Ephedra przewalskii growing widely in Xinjiang. Three genotypes of Ephedra intermedia
BACKGROUND
Herba Ephedra (Mahuang in Chinese), is derived from dried Ephedra sinica Stapf stems and has been widely used to treat the common cold, coughs, asthma, and edema for thousands of years. The Mahuang-Guizhi herb-pair is a famous formula composed of Mahuang and Ramulus Cinnamomi (Guizhi in
The purpose of this study was to evaluate heart rate and blood pressure responses to a commercially available source of ma-haung, a natural source of the sympathomimetic substance, ephedrine, and to evaluate the pharmacokinetic properties of the product in normotensive, healthy adults. On day 1,
