Introduction@#One of the main ingredients of Anar-5 tablets is Piper longium L. Piperine alkaloids are the main active ingredients of the Piper longum and have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and gastric protection properties.In the framework of the standardization study of Anar-5 tablets, a method was developed to determine the content of piperine in highly perpormance liquid chromatography, and then it was sought to include it in the method of analysis of Anar-5 drugs.@*Goal@#Quantitative determination of piperine in Anar-5 tablets and validate the method@*Material and Methods@#The research was conducted in the Chemistry and Chemical Technology Laboratory of the Research Center of the Institute of Traditional Medicine and Technology. And Anar-5 tablets (serial number 04012020) that are produced for experimental were used in the research. The standard substance, piperine alkaloids, was purchased from Green Chemistry.Purification of HPLC (organic solvent methanol, 99.9%, distilled water) was used. The EX 1600 HP/ PUMP high-performance liquid chromatography instrument (column Arcus EP+-C18, 5µm, 4.6x250 mm) and the organic solvent filter 0.45 μm syringe filter were used. The methodology related to this research was discussed and approved at the online meeting of the Ethics Committee of the Academy of Sciences on January 26, 2021. SPSS 16 software was used to statistically program the survey results.@*Results @#According to the above method, the retention time of the standard piperine is 10.38± 0.02 minutes, and the retention time of the piperine in Anar-5 tablets is 10.42±0.033 minutes. Relative velocity deviation RSD 1.077%, accuracy 0.65446±0.0068mg, stability 0.61298±0.013mg, capture time 10.42±0.033 minutes, relative standard deviation RSD≤2%, specificity 10.35 minutes, The equation of a line constructed with a standard curve is y=43360x-33587 and the correlation coefficient R2=0.9989. The piperine content of Anar-5 tablets was determined to be 0.61298±0.013 mg. The LOD and LOQ for piperine were in 2.268 μg/ml and 6.873 μg/ml, respectively.@*Conclusion@#The content of piperine in Anar-5 tablets can be determined by the HPLC method, and the appropriate conditions for this method have been established. The HPLC method is unique, accurate, linear, and stable, and meets ICH Q2 (R1) guideline criteria.

Total phenolic, flavonoid, alkaloid and iridoid content and preventive effect of Lider-7-tang on lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in rats.

Lider-7-tang, a medicine used for the treatment of respiratory diseases especially pneumonia and fever in Mongolian Traditional Medicine, was selected for this phytochemical and pharmacological study. The objectives of the study were to determine total biological active substances and analyze the effects of Lider-7-tang treatment in rats with acute lung injury (ALI). Quantitative determination of the total active constituents (phenolic, flavonoid, iridoid and alkaloid) of the methanol extract of Lider-7-tang was performed using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, aluminum chloride reagent, Trim-Hill reagent, and Bromocresol green reagent, respectively. A total of fifty 8-10-week-old male Wistar rats (200-240 g) were randomized into three groups: control group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group (7.5 mg/kg) and LPS+Lider-7 group (90 mg/kg Lider-7-tang before LPS administration). The total content of alkaloids was 0.2±0.043%, total phenols 7.8±0.67%, flavonoids 3.12±0.206%, and iridoids 0.308±0.0095%. This study also evaluated the effects of Lider-7 on levels of inflammatory mediators by observing histopathological features associated with LPS-induced ALI. The rats pretreated with Lider-7 had significantly lower levels of IL-6 (at 3 and 6 h), and TNF-α (at 3, 6, 9, and 12 h). The current study showed that Lider-7 exerted a preventive effect against LPS-induced ALI, which appeared to be mediated by inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Result of epidemiological surveillance of anthrax which registered in Khentii province / Монголын Анагаах Ухаан

Background: Last years increased the human and animal cases of anthrax. During 2000-2009 infected 197 livestock of them 73 cattles, 7 horses, 13 goats and 104 sheep and 10 human cases of anthrax at Khentii province. Goal: We are aimed to evaluate human and animal cases of anthrax which registered at Khentii province last 10 years.Materials and methods: Used for registration of veterinary report of 2000-2009, last 10 years report of human cases of CIDNF Khentii province. Analyzed the data, compared and evaluated the result of human and animal anthrax cases. Results: The Khentii province included at zone of middle risk, active foci by classification of anthrax risk foci (Tserendorj and et all, 2006). Totally 1148 livestock infected by anthrax during 2000-2009 in national level and of them 17.1% registered at Khentii province. Infected 10 patient during 2000-2009 occurred 12.7 % than national level. Most of patients 95.2% (16) infected by used the skin, meat with died from anthrax. The 4.8% (1) of all patients infected from soil which work at soil. All patients infected by bubonic form. Last 2007, 2008,2009 disinfected at soil and decreased the detection of cultures or positive results from soil.Conclusion: The high risk of human anthrax depends on most likely from animals and soils. Herders take more risks due to their job specialization. Male workers of working age groups are generally infected by anthrax in particular. Especially assistant workers in agriculture and mining sectors are extra vulnerable in anthrax. The new areas have been infected by the virus of human and animal anthraxes because of increases of animal movement from place to place. The reasons of animal movement are number of people working in commercial and hand operated gold mining, herders movement to another area for looking pasture (otor) and growing number of celebration activities (Batshireet, Norovlin soum in 2007).
