The Effects of Amino Acid Electuary (Ganan Elemental Granules) on Experimental Acute Hepatic Failure / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

The effects of amino acid electuary (Ganan Elemental Granules) on experimental acute hepatic failure induced by D-galactosamine in rats were studied. The results showed that the electuary could significantly prevent the decrease in body weight and food intake, the prolongation in time of blood coagulation time and increase in the levels of serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase activity, elevate contents of total serum protein and serum albumin, normalize the serum ratio of BCAA to AAA and disordered amino acid pattern, increase survival of animals and improve encephalopathy in rats with acute hepatic failure. These results suggest that the amino acid electuary has a better protective effects on acute hepatic failure.
