Neuroprotective Effect of a Formula, Moschus Combined with Borneolum Synthcticum, from Traditional Chinese Medicine on Ischemia Stroke in Rats
Figure 1
The major components of the formula were determined by GC-FID method as follows. Helium at a flow rate of 1.1 mL/min was used as the carrier gas. The initial oven temperature was 80°C, followed by a ramp to 180°C at 20°C/min, and then ramped to 280°C at 30°C/min (held at 280°C for 5 min). The injection port and detector temperatures were at 280°C, respectively. The hydrogen and air flow rates in FID 40 and 430 mL/min, respectively. (a) Was the GC-FID chromatogram of the standard references mixed with muscone and borneol. (b) Was the GC-FID chromatogram of the tested formula composed of moschus compatible with borneolum synthcticum.
