Tissue distribution of solid lipid nanoparticles loaded garlic oil in rats / 中国中药杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the tissue distribution of the diallyl disulfide (DADS) and diallyl trisulfide (DATS) in solid lipid nanoparticles loaded garlic oil (GO-SLN) in rats.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The gas chromatography-electron capture detection (GC-ECD) method was established to determined the DADS and DATS simultaneously in the biological samples of rats after administration of 0.5 mL garlic oil injection or GO-SLN (containing about 10 mg garlic oil) via jugular vein cannula. The conditions for gas chromatographic separation were as follows. The oven temperature was set at 110 degrees C and maintained for 15 min. Temperatures at the injection port and detector were 180 degrees C and 300 degrees C, respectively. Ultra-pure nitrogen (purity > 99.999%, Shenyang Kerui Special Gases Co. Ltd., China) was used as a carrier gas and made-up gas at flow-rates of 1 mL x min(-1) and 60 mL x min(-1), respectively. All injections were carried out in the split injection mode with a split ratio of 1:10.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The GC-ECD method was fit for determing the concentration of DADS and DATS in garlic oil. The distribution character of GO-SLN in rats had changed to some extent and the concentration of GO-SLN in tissues was higher than that of GO-Injection.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The SLN can elevate the passive targeting of drugs and lengthen their action time in tissues.</p>

Study on the preparation of venenum bufonis beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes / 中国中药杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the preparation of Venenum Bufonis beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>An optimal condition was established by the uniform design. Under the optimal conditions the Venenum Bufonis beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes were prepared with 5 different methods.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The ball grinding method was superior to other four methods. The bufadienolide inclusion rate of Venenum Bufonis beta-cyclodextrin prepared with ball grinding method was 85.42%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Ball grinding method is the best method for the preparation of Venenum Bufonis beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes.</p>
