A traditional Chinese medicine composition, made from cassia twig, poria, Cortex moutan, Radix paeoniae alba, peach kernel in equal proportions. The traditional Chinese medicine composition comprises paeoniflorin, amygdalin, benzoylpaeoniflorin, cinnamic acid, paeonol, and cinnamaldehyde. The composition has the advantages of high production efficiency, high content of effective ingredients, high transfer rate of poria acid, reduced hygroscopicity, and improved dissolution of index ingredients.

Crystallized cannabis extract having a purple color is made by first providing cannabis having a detectable amounts of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) as well as secondary components including terpenes. Pentane or other solvent is added to the cannabis material to dissolve the secondary components. The cannabis material is enclosed in a filter basket, or a rosin press filter bag, having an average pore diameter of 25 microns. The centrifuge spins the filter bag or filter basket to separate the THCA from the cannabis material and thereby yielding a primary product that is a concentrated cannabis material having at least 95% THCA and a secondary product (high terpene extract) having combined THCA and secondary components including terpenes. The concentrated cannabis material is distilled in a wiped film evaporator or a short path evaporator to oxidize the concentrated cannabis material and yield a super concentrated cannabis material having at least 98% THC.

The present invention discloses a preparation method of an albumin peptide combination and the action of inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells thereof, the preparation steps comprise: mixing albumin and water in proportion, heating, adjusting pH, adding alkaline protease to perform enzymatic hydrolysis, deactivating, filtrating; mixing coix seed and water in proportion, decocting to extract, filtrating, adding certain proportional of water to filter residue, continue decocting to extract, collecting filtrates, determining solid matter content respectively, mixing two solutions, concentrating, spray drying, and obtaining an albumin peptide combination having the action of inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells. The present invention found that, as compared with using coix seed individually, the effect of inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells of albumin peptide combination is stronger, and process is simpler.

The present invention provides a method of treating and/or preventing pulmonary hypertension in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a bioactive peptide preparation derived from at least one botanical source.

A process for producing an arginine-rich peptide mixture and the application thereof in cervical cancer therapy is provided. The process includes the following steps: A suspension of walnut meal and egg albumin is pretreated with ultrahigh pressure, and then digested by alkaline proteinase and papain in separated steps with the ultrasonic and microwave-assisted extraction. The peptides of interest are isolated from filtration supernatant obtained after the enzyme digestion by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography. By using the peptide mixture as a template, acrylic acid and methyl acrylic acid as functional monomers, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate as cross-linking agent, and isopropylthioxanthone in acetone as a photoinitiator, polymerization is induced by ultraviolet light to form a surface imprinted membrane for isolating and enriching the peptides of interest from the supernatant. The arginine content in the peptide mixture is more than 18%. The arginine-rich peptide mixture is able to strongly suppress the proliferation of human cervical cancer Hela cells. The approach is applicable to reduce the cost of production and speed up the commercialization of large-scale production.

The present invention refers to the use of an extract from chestnut shells (CSE), peeling waste of the chestnut, (fruit of the tree Castanea sativa Mill., European Chestnut), or fractions of said extract, with specific antiviral activity in the treatment and/or prevention of Herpesviridae, Retroviridae, and Coronaviridae infections.

A Syringa microphylla seed extract includes the following components by weight based on a total weight of the Syringa microphylla seed extract: 0.4944-0.7142 mg/g of echinacoside, 6.624-7.617 mg/g of oleuropein, 0.4276-0.6309 mg/g of verbascoside, 3.927-4.684 mg/g of syringin, and 4.505-5.250 mg/g of forsythiaside B. A method of preparing the Syringa microphylla seed extract is disclosed. A composition for treating antibiotic-resistant infections that includes the Syringa microphylla seed extract is also disclosed.

A powdered, water-soluble Full Spectrum Hemp Oil is formed using organic materials and natural products to form a non-GMO, fast acting, whole plant hemp extract without harsh chemicals such as hexane. The Full Spectrum Hemp Oil may be extracted using CO2 concurrent gas extraction to avoid use of chemical additives.

The present invention provides an advanced absorption and delivery system to an ecdysterone-based nutritional supplement, specifically a turkesterone-based nutritional supplement, a turkesterone hydroxypropyl β-cyclic dextrin complex manufactured using a co-precipitation technique, the manufacturing process including a fluid bed drying system wherein the complex is dried using hot air blown into contact with a fluidized bed.

A method for extracting a ceramide-containing material or ceramide from whole apples and/or apple juice extraction residue. Furthermore, to ensure utility as a food, especially a functional food, or a raw material for a cosmetic or medicine, that includes the ceramide-containing material. [Solution] In the present invention, an adsorbent is added to an ethanol treatment solution of whole apples and/or apple juice extraction residue, the mixture is stirred and subjected to solid-liquid separation, and solid material precipitated from the solution is separated, after which water is added to the resultant concentrate and the temperature thereof is maintained, whereby the resultant settled component is recovered and dried to obtain a ceramide-containing material or ceramide. Using the ceramide obtained from whole apples and/or apple juice extraction residue, there are formed a composition for promoting production of hyaluronic acid and/or type II collagen, and a composition for promoting improvement of memory impairment and/or enhancement of the level of phosphorylation of extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK1/2).
