A method for performing a multi-phase extraction of plant biomass to obtain active substances is provided. The method uses a novel freeze-dry extraction technique to obtain a volatile terpene fraction from frozen plant material. In particular, the method disclosed provides terpene extracts with compositions that strongly resemble that of the parent plant material.

Provided is use of Corydalis saxicola Bunting and a Corydalis saxicola Bunting total alkaloid capsule in the preparation of drugs for treating non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis, drug induced liver injury, and chemical liver injury.

Phytoceutical compositions from polar organic extracts of the Ambrosia maritima plants and uses thereof for treatment of coronavirus infections are described.

The present invention provides a composition for treating atopic dermatitis, the composition containing, as an active ingredient, a butanol fraction of an S. fusiforme extract.

This invention relates to the extraction of psychoactive compounds from psilocybin fungus for use in medicine. Raw psilocybin fungus is dried and ground. The solvent used for extraction is a lower aliphatic alcohol, water, a hydro-alcohol mixture, an acidic hydro-alcohol mixture, or an alkaline hydro-alcohol mixture. The extraction slurry is filtered and pH-adjusted if necessary. The solvent is then partially evaporated, or completely evaporated with water added back, to form a concentrated slurry. The concentrated slurry is then standardized to provide a known concentration of the psychoactive alkaloids that have been extracted. The standardized slurry may then be dried to result in a powdered psilocybin mushroom extract with a precisely defined purity.

Provided herein is anti-aging health food and cosmetics having better anti-aging effect than any known substance to be expected to have anti-aging effect, such as resveratrol, and a method of manufacturing a grape seed-derived anti-aging ingredient having the better anti-aging effect. The anti-aging health food and anti-aging cosmetics according to the present invention include a grape seed-derived anti-aging ingredient consisting of 60 wt. % or more of crudely-purified grape seed-derived polyphenol.

The present application relates to the technical field of medicine, and in particular to Periplaneta americana L. extract, a preparation thereof, a preparation method and application thereof. The method for preparing Periplaneta americana L. extract includes the steps: 1) soaking fresh Periplaneta americana L. extract with ethanol; 2) reflux extracting with ethanol, and then filtering and combining the filtrates; and 3) concentrating the filtrate into extractum. The method uses environmental protection reagents such as ethanol, increases the content of bioactive substances of Periplaneta americana L. extract, saves time, human and material resources, saves energy and reduces production cost. The Periplaneta americana L. extract obtained by the present method has better anti-inflammatory activity and higher content of amino acids.

A composition is produced by a method of extracting a Kanna plant, wherein the method comprises the steps of harvesting and drying the plant, extracting the alkaloids comprising Mesembrine from the plant in a solvent, and filtering the solvent-Kanna plant mixture to remove the solvent and extracted alkaloids from a spent Kanna plant matter. The method further includes drying the spent Kanna plant matter, purifying and separating the extracted alkaloids from the solvent, and mixing the extracted alkaloids back into the dried spent plant matter.

An application of a traditional Chinese medicine composition in preparing a medicine for treating or preventing coronavirus infection. The traditional Chinese medicine composition is characterized by being prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 5-15 parts of Cornu saigae tataricae or 50-150 parts of goral horns, 10-60 parts of Bulbus Fritillariae Ussuriensis, 15-60 parts of Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, 7-30 parts of Radix scutellariae, 7-30 parts of Lapis Chloriti, 10-50 parts of gypsum fibrosum, 5-20 parts of calculus bovis artifactus, and 15-60 parts of radix glycyrrhizae. The traditional Chinese medicine composition can inhibit 2019-nCoV replication in cells, so that cells infected by 2019-nCoV viruses have no lesion. Therefore, the traditional Chinese medicine composition can treat or prevent coronavirus related diseases.

Provided is a process of stabilizing active ingredients of plant materials in an aqueous suspension, the process including: extracting one or more active ingredients of a plant material using an extraction solvent, wherein the extraction of the one or more active ingredients of the plant materials comprises: transferring the plant material into a temperature-controlled reactor; adding the extraction solvent to the temperature-controlled reactor, thereby producing an eluant from the plant material; incubating the eluant at a first selected temperature for a pre-determined duration of time; and running the eluent through a filtration process to obtain an extractant solution filtrate and a separated solid plan material product; encapsulating the one or more active ingredients in one or more nanoparticles; and dispersing the one or more nanoparticles in an aqueous suspension.
