Simultaneous determination and pharmacokinetic comparisons of multi-ingredients after oral administration of radix salviae miltiorrhizae extract, hawthorn extract, and a combination of both extracts to rats.

A simple and sensitive HPLC method was developed for simultaneous determination of danshensu (DSS), rosmarinic acid (RA), lithospermic acid (LA), salvianolic acid B (SAB), and hyperoside (HP) in rat plasma. This method validated was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of the main active ingredients after oral administration of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae extract (SME), hawthorn extract (HTE), and a combination of both extracts (2.5 : 1) to rats.

[Applied study on clustering of variables around latent components method in wavelength region selection with near-infrared spectroscopy].

The present paper introduced the principle of clustering of variables around latent components method, and used this method in selecting spectrum range of the NIR quantitative analysis models. Taking tobacco samples as experiment materials, we dealed with 107 sample spectra, divided the spectra into 5 clusters, and explained the information reflected by each of these 5 clusters in terms of chemistry. On this basis, we chose the corresponding wavelength range to set up the quantitative models of the total sugar, reducing sugar and nicotine by PLS method.
