Essential oils from roots, flowers, fruits, and leaves plus stems of Angelica sinensis cultivated in Vietnam were obtained by hydrodistillation analyzed using GC/MS-FID. In total, 36, 30, 33, 27 compounds found accounting for 98.7%, 98.8%, 99.2%, 100% the compositions, respectively. (Z)-Ligustilide (49.4%, 29.6%, 25.8%, 28.9%) γ-terpinene (20.6%, 38.5%, 35.5%, 44.2%) main components respective ...

background & aim: kelussiaodoratissima mozaff is a valuable plant of apiaceae family that is used as medicinal and aromatic herb. according to the importance of drying treatment on quality and quantity of essential oil, the effect of different drying methods on essential oil yield and chemical composition of kelussia odoratissima mozaff was examined in this research. experimental:  this res...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of ligustilide (LIG) on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertrophy in neonatal rat myocardial cells and the expression levels of p53, Bcl-2 and Bax. Myocardial cells were isolated and purified from the ventricles of neonate Sprague-Dawley rats (age, 1-3 days) using a differential adhesion method. The cells were then were stimulated by ...

To improve the stability and oral bioavailability of Z-ligustilide (LIG), the inclusion complex of LIG with hydroxypropyl- β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was prepared by the kneading method and characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis (DTA) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. LIG is capable of forming an inclusion complex with HP-b-CD and the stoichiometry o...
