In order to evaluate the differences and similarities between the liposoluble constituents in Cynomorium songaricum populations, stem liposoluble constituents in five populations of C. songaricum collected from three different geographic regions and four different hosts were obtained by solvent extraction and analyzed by GC-MS. Cluster analysis of the percentage composition of 80 compounds showed differences in chemical composition which were related to the geographic origin rather than the host. Hexadecanoic acid was the most abundant compound in the essential oils of C. songaricum from hosts Nitraria sibirica and Nitraria tanguticum. Whereas (Z)-9-octadecenoic acid was accumulated in the oils of C. songaricum from Zygophyllum xanthoxylum and Peganum harmala. Four of the five populations had characteristic components, which were specific to each population.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignant epithelial tumors in men worldwide. PCa patients are initially sensitive to chemotherapy, but patients in the advanced stages of PCa eventually develop resistance, leaving them with limited therapeutic options. Therefore, it is very important to screen new drugs for treating PCa.

Breast cancer is one of the most deadly malignancies in women worldwide. , a perennial plant that belongs to the genus , has long been used in the management of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The main anti-breast cancer constituents in are liposoluble tanshinones including dihydrotanshinone I, tanshinone I, tanshinone IIA, and cryptotanshinone, and water-soluble phenolic acids represented by salvianolic acid A, salvianolic acid B, salvianolic acid C, and rosmarinic acid.

A switchable deep eutectic solvent-based liquid-phase microextraction was proposed and applied to the preconcentration and determination of liposoluble quality-markers of diterpenoid quinones (dihydrotanshinone I, cryptotanshinone, tanshinone I, and tanshinone IIA) in traditional Chinese medicine coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection. In the procedure, the hydrophilic deep eutectic solvent of diethanolamine-hexanoic acid (molar ratio 1:1) was prepared and added into the sample phase as an extractant, and a homogeneous solution was formed under slight vortex stirring. After the addition of HCl solution, the deep eutectic solvent miscible with the sample phase was converted to hydrophobic form, and a cloudy solution was generated.
