The great contribution made by mongolian scientists to the Tibetan medicine / Монголын эм зүй, эм судлал

Abstract@#In the late 16^th century, Tibetan medical schools which were based on Indian Ayurvedic medicine were spread in Mongolia when Buddhism was revived the third time in Mongolia. This was a brand new page in the history of the Mongolian health system. Monasteries were set up in every corner and larger monasteries had doctor’s schools to train tens of doctors. At the end of the 17^th century, Mongolian doctors, scholars started translating and explaining the fundamentals of Indian Ayurveda and Tibetan medicine and even established new branches (schools) blending the Tibetan theory and treatment methods with their empirical knowledge.@*Conclusion@#At that time, in the 18^th century, complete bases were established for the start of the golden period of Mongolian medical development which was characterized by theoretical and practical compliance with the “Four Medical Tantras”. Tens of books of this time were written in the Mongolian and Tibetan languages by Mongolian doctors and scholars alike. A new paradigm containing progress, unique opinions can be seen on pages of “The Mongolian Four Medical Tantras” written by Sumbe khamba Ishbaljor, and “Satisfaction for the Readers” or Uzegsdiin Bayasgalan by Jigmeddanzan jamts and “Secrets of Prescription Recipes” or Uvidasyn Dalai by Mindol Jambal. These scholars reflected new concepts that were not specifically clear in the Four Fundamentals such as warm and cold diseases, which were the basis to categorize cold and common diseases and treat them differently, and the theoretical and practical understanding of the categorization of infectious diseases, in their book.

Some of the medicinal herbs used for arthritis in the traditional Mongolian medicine / Монголын эм зүй, эм судлал

Abstract@#The study of the use of active substances in the raw materials of drugs used in traditional medicine by modern medical methods, especially the relationship between their secondary metabolites and their biological activity, has become a topic of great interest. The purpose of this study is to clarify the taste, potency, and chemical composition of some medicinal herbs used in traditional Mongolian medicine to treat arthritis. The main methods used in the research are analysis of ancient source materials and checklist. Four herbs were selected for the study: <i>Linari buriatica Turcz, Veronica incana, Inula Britannica</i>, and <i>Ledum palustre L.</i> According to the theory of traditional medicine, the taste, potency and general use of these four herbs are different, but the medicinal herbs have the ability to cure arthritis. In addition, the active substances in the chemical composition of these four herbs has been shown to be effective against a variety of diseases, including: <i>Linari buriatica Turcz</i>, used in large doses has purgative action and in small doses, it has the effect of stimulating gastrointestinal peristalsis and secretory function, <i>Veronica incana</i> contains cardiac glycosides and saponins while <i>Inula Britannica</i> contains inulin, and <i>Ledum palustre L</i> have been shown to suppress inflammation and promote apoptosis, or programmed cell death, which is essential for healthy living. However, the use of these four herbs in the treatment of arthritis in traditional medicine is noteworthy and needs to be studied in more depth.

PHYTОCHEMICAL RESEARCH OF GENTIANA BARBATA / Монголын эм зүй, эм судлал

Introduction It grows a larch forest, in its meadow, edge and glade, bank of the river and thick bushes forests covering Khuvsgul, Khentii, Khangai, Gobi Altai, mountainous and fertile pastures, Mountain range and Mongol Altaic Mountain range. Upper part of the land of Gentiana barbata, its preparation is effective to release poisoning, reduce inflammation, support liver and gall procedure internal treatment and an application external are inflammation fast healing, recover transfer activities of cell membrane. Drug preparations extracted from upper part of the land is confirming cell membrane, to jaundice. Its upper part of the land are for fast healing scald and inflammation, gallbladder diseases, to jaundice in Mongolian traditional Medicine. Goal The aim is to study of phytochemical Gentiana barbata. Materials and MethodsWe performed the research taking material assistance of pharmacognozy laboratories in Monos university from 2014-2015. The quantitative and qualitative analyses of plant bioactive compounds were evaluated by Russian XI Pharmacopeia and the method according to Mongolian National Standard, mineral substances were evaluated using roentgen fluorescence method. Result of the study was developed by SPSS 16 and End notе programme.ResultThe quantitative and qualitative analyses of plant bioactive compounds of Gentiana barbata upper part of the land were evaluated alkaloid, tannin, coumarone, flavonoid and mineral substances were found. Conclusion It was carried out phytochemical investigation of the Gentiana barbata using spectrophotometer as a result we determined that contains 6.0 % of sum flavonoid, 15.7 % coumarone. Amount of biological active compound-tannins was 3.2 %, alkaloid 0.5 %. When content of mineral substances in upper part of the land of Gentiana barbata contained K 60.2 %, Ca 25.12%, S 6.7%, CL 5.8 %, Sr 0.09%, Fe 0.83%, Ba 0.73%, Mn 0.152%, Rb 0.058%, Cu 0.069%, Zn 0.207%.Key words: Gentiana barbata, phytochemical, mineral substances, flavonoid, and 5,7,3´-Trihydroxy-4´-methoxyflavon.
