Methods Ultraviolet spectrophotometry was used to determine the concentration of total flavonoids in different extraction time (t) and solvent load (M). Then the predicted procedure was carried out using the following data: 1 ) based on Ficks second law, the parameters of the kinetic model could be deduced and the equation was established; 2) Locally weighted regression (LWR) code was developed in the WEKA software environment to predict the concentration. And then we used both methods to predict the concentration of total flavonoids in new experiments. Results After comparing the predicted results with the experimental data, the LWR model had better accuracy and performance in the prediction. Conclusion LWR is applied to analyze the extraction process of Chinese herb for the first time, and it is totally fit for the extraction. LWR-based system is a more simple and accurate way to predict than the established equation. It is a good choice especially for a process which exists no clear rules, and can be used in the real-time control during the process.展开更多

The plasma samples were incubated with β-glucuronidase/sulfatase, the total(free + conjugated) naringenin and hesperitin were extracted with acetonitrile. The validated HPLC-MS/MS method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study.Results: The results showed that, compared with the normal group, AUC0–∞, AUC0–tand Cmaxfor total naringenin and hesperitin were significantly higher(P < 0.01 or P < 0.05), while CLZ/F for total naringenin and hesperitin was significantly lower(P < 0.01) in the GMD group. Tmax, t1/2 z, MRT0-t, and MRT0-∞for naringenin were longer(P < 0.01) in the GMD group than those in the normal group.Conclusion: The results showed that there were significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters of naringenin and hesperitin between normal and GMD groups. It was suggested that the absorption of naringenin and hesperitin was increased, and the elimination processes of naringenin and hesperitin were slower in the GMD group than the normal group. The data are of value for further pharmacological studies of ZSTFG and would be useful to provide a reference for improving the therapeutic regimen of ZSTFG in clinical trials.展开更多
