ABSTRACT
Objective To study the influence of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizome (SMR) and Carthami Flos (CF) before and after compatibility on activitis of cytochrome P 1A2 (CYP1A2),cytochrome P2E1 (CYP2E1),and cytochrome P3A4 (CYP3A4) from rat liver microsomes.Methods Using caffeine,chlorzoxazone,and midazolam as the probe drugs ofCYP1A2,CYP2E1,and CYP3A4,the SD rats were randomized divided into four groups:control group,SMR (1.2 g crude drug/kg) group,CF (0.4 g crude drug/kg) group,and SMR (1.2 g crude drug/kg) + CF (0.4 g crude drug/kg) group.According to the above dose,rats were ig given drugs for 7 d.Rats were injected with caffeine,chlorzoxazone,and midazolam solution in tail vein 30 rain after the last administration,and the blood was collected at different time points.Metronidazole as internal standard,method has been established to determine the levels of caffeine,chlorzoxazone,and midazolam to evaluate the activities of CYP1A2,CYP2E1,and CYP3A4 by HPLC.Results Compared with control group,SMR increased the clearance rates (CL) of caffeine,chlorzoxazone,and midazolam,reduced the AUC,and t1/2 was also show a decreasing trend,but the difference was not significant.In CF group,CL of caffeine and chlorzoxazone was decreased,but the difference is not significant.CL of midazolam significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.01).AUC of chlorzoxazone increased,but the difference was not significant.AUC of caffeine and midazolam increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05 and 0.01).In SMR + CF group,the CL of caffeine and chlorzoxazone decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),the AUC of caffeine and chlorzoxazone increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),and t1/2 also showed a decreasing trend,but the difference is not significant.Conclusion Compatibility of SMR and CF has an inhibitive effect on CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 in rats,and it could be one of the mechanisms ofinteractive synergy.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To determine the optimal molding technology of Forsythia Suspense leaves healthy instant tea. Methods:The effects of the ratio of different excipients to dry extract powder and the concentration of wetting agent on the indices including dis-solubility, appearance and formability were investigated by single factor tests. The drying time was determined with moisture as the in-dex, and the final forming process was optimized. Results:The optimal molding progress was as follows:the ratio of dry extract powder to lactose was 1 :1. 5, and after mixed completely, 80% ethanol was used as the wetting agent to prepare wet granules, finally dried at 60℃ for 1. 5 h. Conclusion:The molding technology of Forsythia suspense leaves healthy instant tea is feasible, which can provide ref-erence for the comprehensive development and utilization of Forsythia Suspense leaves.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the habitat processing method of Forsythiae Fructus based on the different indexes, and to choose the best habitat producing process.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The habitat producing process was researched by the L9(3(4)) orthogonal and the single factor test. The contents of phillyrin and forsythiaside A were determined by HPLC.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The contents of phillyrin and forsythiaside A from Forsythiae Fructus processed by evaporating were 1.33-3.05, and 9.71-44.82 mg x g(-1), respectively. The contents of phillyrin and forsythiaside A from Forsythiae Fructus processed by cooking were 4.63-5.46 mg x g(-1), and 40.20-64.84 mg x g(-1), respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>With phillyrin and forsythiaside A as evaluation indexes, cooking method is superior to evaporate method while it is superior to dry method. It is conductive to the preservation and stability of phillyrin and forsythiaside A that add 4 times water of material volum and boil 10 min.</p>
