ABSTRACT
Wistar nonlinear rats weighing 170-220g. Rats were divided 5 groups, including control group, group-1, group-2, group -3 and reference group. Dried thistle extract and raw bovine testicle were contained by 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 ratio. Each 0.1g ratio was dissolved in 20 ml distilled water and administered 2 times per day. Blood sampling was done for each rat after 3, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days. Their testosterone level was measured by ELISA Kit. Results: The results indicated that free serum testosterone level in male rats increase and decrease in 7 days frequency. All tested groups showed gradual increase in the level of free serum testosterone when compared to that of corresponding control (p<0.05). Statistical comparison of all groups revealed that the maximum level was found in group 1. Moreover, group 3 was showed gradually increase in level of free serum testosterone, irrelative with period of decrease testosterone level. Conclusion: According to our results and previous study, it is suggested that preparation with Tribulus terrestris L. extract could be used in the androgen deficiency and erectile dysfunctions. Keywords: Tribulus Terrestris L, Free testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, Protodioscin
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Factors are increasing in Mongolia, which is producing food product using sea buckthorn berry. However, those factors use pulp oil, juice and throw skins, pulp and seeds. Those solid remains named pomace. The pomace contains many kinds of vitamins, trace elements and other biologically active substances including fat soluble vitamins /А, Е, К/, fatty acids / linoleic, linolienic, oleic/, carbohydrates, water soluble vitamins /С, В1, В2, folic acid/, flavonoids, carotenoids. Therefore, pomace is usable as raw material for biological active product. Goal: The aim of study is to invent sample of biological active product including seabackthorn pomace Materials and methods: The seabuckthorn pomace was provided by Monos Foods Co Ltd. Ascorbic acid and other expient were provided by Drug Research Institute. Sea buckthorn (H. rhamnoides) pomace was dried by Labconco freezone L12 freeze dryer in Drug Research Institute. Moisture and total ash were determined by method according to MNS 5225:2002, contents of total fat was determined by Soxhlet method, vitamin C and total acidity were analyzed by titremitric method, total flavonoid was analyzed spectrophotometric method and impurity of dry pomace was measured by The State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation XI. Quality requirements of tablet, capsule and granule were determined by Mongolian National First Pharmacopeia. Total bacteria and fungal were determined by method in MNS 5194:2002 and MNS 5193:2002. Results: Dried seabuckthorn pomace was standardized according to MNS 5225:2002. The results indicated that dried seabuckthorn contains humidity 4.3%, total ash 2.16%, β-carotin 110.3%, fiber 31.78%, total flavonoid 0.25%, impurity 0.13%, acidity 2.06%, total fat 33.3%, total fungi count 3*102 and bacterial count 2*102, respectively. We created tablets 0.3 g contain dry pomace and determined quality and quantity parameters. Quality requirements of tablets were standardized and following results were obtained: the 0.3g tablet had an average weight 0.301g, the dissolution of the 0.3g tablet was 97.6%, disintegration 2.93 minute and ascorbic acid 30.66 mg. Furthermore, capsules contain dry pomace were created. Its average weight was 0.45g ±7.5%, disintegration 24 minute and β-carotine 0.12 mg, respectively. Finally, granule product contains vitamin C and dry pomace was created. In this granules content β-carotene 1.32 mg and vitamin C 145 mg, respectively. Conclusion: Quality requirements and microbial contaminants of dry seabuckthorn pomace were agreed with MNS 5225:2002. 0.45 g capsule, 0.3 g tablets, 5g granule were created. Those new products meet the general requirements for tablet; capsule and granule by Mongolian National First Pharmacopeia, and 0.45g capsule, 5g granule products were more suitable for production of biological active products. Key words: sea buckthorn pomace, (H. rhamnoides), biological active product
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Achillea asiatiсa has been used in traditional medicine for one hundreds of years. Many compounds have been isolated from /Achillea asiatica/, including flavonoids, sesquiterpenes and essential oils. Salsola collina herb grows in Siberia, Baikal and Altai. It contains a variety of amino acids, flavonoids, glycosides, and vitamins. It has a positive effect on metabolism of fats in liver, regulates cholesterol and sugar in the blood and is recommended for weight reduction. Salsola collina is widely distributed in droughty and semi-droughty area, which is used as a kind of folk remedy in traditional Chinese and Mpngolian traditional medicine for treatment of hypertension and liver protectevity . Goal: The aim of study is to choose optimal extragent and determination liver protecting activity in Achillea asiatiсa, Salsola colina and to determine main substances in these herbals. Material and Methods: Achillea asiatiсa was collected from Dorgonot mountain Tuv province in June of 2012, Salsola colina were collected from Medicinal botanical garden of Drug Research Institute in August of 2012. Maceration was chosen by suitable extraction method and optimal extragent was ethanol. Flavonoids were determined in evaporated extract of Achillea asiatiсa, Salsola colina using the method by Mongolian National first Pharmacopeia. We use non line wistar rats, determination liver protecting activity biochemical analysis by Hospitex analyzer. Result: Liquid extracts were obtained from Achillea asiatiсa, Salsola colina with maceration method. Liquid extracts were evaporated on Vacuum rotor. The tehnological parameters of liquid extracts are the main important index to calculate the extragent correctly, to establish the material balance exactly, and to extract the process efficiently. 70% ethanol (1:10 sample/extragent) was determined by optimal extragent for Achillea asiatiсa, 80% ethanol (1:10) for Salsola colina. Achillea asiatiсa, Salsola colina were have liver protecting activity. Conclusion: Some technological parameters of liquid extract were determined such as optimal extragent and the effective extracting method of Achillea asiatiсa, Salsola colina. As the result of determining these parameters, it has much practical significant for establishing the technological condition to extract the biological activity compounds completely from their plants.
