Pharmacological potential of ginseng and its major component ginsenosides

TL;DR: Ginseng could be a valuable resource for future drug development; however, further higher quality evidence is required as it may have drug interactions although the available evidence suggests it is a relatively safe product.
Journal ArticleDOI

Approaches to establish Q-markers for the quality standards of traditional Chinese medicines.

TL;DR: This review delineates the background, definition, and properties of Q-marker, and the associated technologies applied for its establishment, and strategies and approaches for establishing Q- marker-based TCM quality control system.

Saponin-Based, Biological-Active Surfactants from Plants

TL;DR: This chapter has been prepared by participants of the Marie Sklodowska‐Curie Action—Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) in the frame‐ work of the proposal ‘ECOSAPONIN.’
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytical methods and biological activities of Panax notoginseng saponins: Recent trends

TL;DR: The chromatographic technique remains the most extensively used approach for the identification or quantitation of PNSs, coupled with different detectors, among which the difference mainly lies in their sensitivity and specificity for analyzing various compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

A green protocol for efficient discovery of novel natural compounds: characterization of new ginsenosides from the stems and leaves of Panax ginseng as a case study.

TL;DR: The established 2D LC/LTQ-Orbitrap-MS/NMR approach outperforms the conventional approaches in respect of significantly improved efficiency, much less use of drug materials and organic solvent.
