  • * The method achieved a linear detection range for the ginkgolic acids from 0.2 to 36.0 µg·L(-1) with very low limits of quantification for each acid, showcasing its sensitivity.
  • * Average recovery rates of the method ranged from 73.28% to 87.56%, and the total ginkgolic acid content in samples was significantly below regulatory standards, indicating the method's efficiency and potential for quality control.

Article Abstract

To develop a LC-MS/MS method for the determination of five kinds of trace ginkgolic acids in diterpene ginkgolides meglumine injection materials, the column was Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse plus C18 (3.0 mm x 50 mm, 1.8 µm), and the mobile phase consisted of methanol-water (containing 0.2% formic acid) (95:5) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL · min(-1). The multiple reaction ion monitoring (MRM) with an ESI interface in the negative ion mode was selected. The results showed that the linear ranges of five kinds of ginkgolic acids were in the range of 0.2-36.0 µg · L(-1) (r ≥ 0.999 5). The lowest limit of quantification (LOQ) of ginkgo acid C13: 0, C15:1, C17:2, C15:0 and C17:1 were 0.18, 0.18, 0.21, 0.10 and 0.20 µg · L(-1), respectively. The average recovery was between 73.28% and 87.56%, and the average content of total ginkgolic acids in three batches of samples was in the range of 0.023-0.028 µg · g(-1), which was much lower than 2 µg · g(-1) prescribed in drug registration standards. This method is simple and rapid with high sensitivity, which can be used for the determination of five kinds of trace ginkgolic acids in diterpene ginkgolides meglumine injection materials.

This study aims to address the challenge of detoxifying ginkgolic acid and transform it from waste into a valuable resource. By using pseudo-template molecular imprinting technology to chemically modify polysaccharide materials, we developed a polysaccharide-based molecular imprinted material (MMCC-CD/CS-MIP) for the targeted separation and controlled release of ginkgolic acid. Under optimal conditions, MMCC-CD/CS-MIP demonstrated excellent adsorption performance (Q = 47.

The Ebola virus, a filovirus, has been responsible for significant human fatalities since its discovery. Despite extensive research, effective small-molecule drugs remain elusive due to its complex pathogenesis. Inhibition of RNA synthesis is a promising therapeutic target, and the VP30 protein plays a critical role in this process.

Background: A prebiotic is defined as an indigestible feed substance that beneficially affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria in the large intestine, thereby improving host health and products.

Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effects of supplementing prebiotic fructooligosaccharide (FOS) to the diets of Hy-Line W-36 laying hens.

Methods: A total of 168 Hy-Line W-36 laying hens were allocated to four dietary levels of FOS (0, 1.

Pulsed light (PL) is a prospective non-thermal technology that can improve the degradation of ginkgolic acid (GA) and retain the main bioactive compounds in Ginkgo biloba leaves (GBL). However, only using PL hasn't yet achieved the ideal effect of reducing GA. Fermentation of GBL to make ginkgo dark tea (GDT) could decrease GA.
