Traditional hot water reflux extraction, ultrasonic-water extraction (UW), ultrasonic-natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) extraction (U-NADES), ultrasonic-water and enzyme extraction (U-W-E) and ultrasonic-NADES and enzyme extraction (U-NADES-E) are employed for the extraction of Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii polysaccharides (RNP), in which, the U-NADES-E has being proved as the most effective method. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was utilized to optimize the conditions for U-NADES-E method. Using the optimal extraction conditions, the yield of RNP can be enhanced by nearly two-fold in comparison to the traditional extraction method, achieving a yield of 7.

A HPLC method has been developed for simultaneously detecting chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, senkyunolide I, senkyunolide H, coniferyl ferulate, senkyunolide A, ligustilide, and levistolide A in Angelicae Sinensis Radix through quantitative analysis of multicomponents by single-marker (QAMS) method with ferulic acid as internal standard substance. The relative analysis correction factors of each component in Angelicae Sinensis Radix have good reproducibility under different chromatography conditions. In addition, no significant difference of results was found between quantitative analysis of multicomponents by single-marker (QAMS) method and external standard method in determining content of these components of different Angelicae Sinensis Radix and its 12 kinds of preparations.

Background: As known to us, HPLC method was often used to determine the contents of Angelicae sinesis Radix. In view of the shortcomings of HPLC method, qNMR has prominent advantages in determining the contents of bioactive components in the quantitative and qualitative analysis of Angelicae sinesis Radix.

Objective: In this study, a quick, simple, and accurate method was established to determine the components of ferulic acid, coniferyl ferulate, and ligustilide in Angelicae sinesis Radix.

Cistanches Herba is a popular Traditional Chinese Medicine and functional food that is used to treat kidney yang deficiency (KYD) in China. In this study, we investigated the effects of different drying methods for Cistanches Herba on kidney invigoration and yang strengthening. We established a mouse model of KYD by intraperitoneal injection of hydrocortisone for 8 days.

Objective: To explore the optimal storage method, antioxidant activities of fresh Cistanche deserticola fleshy stem were studied in response to the types of packaging and storage temperature during storage. Furthermore, this research will provide theoretical guides to preserve Cistanche deserticola fleshy stem.

Methods: The fresh fleshy stem of Cistanche deserticola was stored at 4 ℃ and 25 ℃using polyethylene( PE) film, vacuum packaging and vacuum packaging with nitrogen( N2) respectively, and the antioxidant enzyme activities were assayed regularly.
