Part Used : เหง้า
Activity : DRUG INTERACTION
Solvent/Active Compound : red ginseng powder
Type of experiment : in vitro
Type of animal : -
Type of study : -
N(Total) : -
N(Treatment) : -
Sex : -
Age : -
Route : -
Dose/Conc.(herb) : -
Duration : -
Type of interaction : Pharmacokinetics
Interaction with drug : Methoxyflurane
Dose/Conc.(drug) : -
Result : Negative
Remark : - Twenty rats were divided into 4 groups (n=5) as follows: group 1 - control, group 2-4 fed with red ginseng powder 15, 75 and 200 mg/kg/day, respectively. Red ginseng powder was dissolved in deionized water based on 20 ml/rat/day. After 2 weeks of drinking ad libitum they were killed and collected liver microsomes for measurement of protein content and anesthetic defluorination activity. - The rates of enflurane and methoxyflurane defluorination by rat liver microsomes determined by incubation of 10 microliters of each anesthetic with 5 mg of microsomal protein.
Note : There were no statistically significant differences in hepatic microsomal cytochrome p-450 content or defluorination of enflurane and methoxyflurane between control and experimental groups using either red ginseng extract or powder.

Remark : - Twenty four rats were divided into 4 groups (n=6) as follows: group 1 - control, group 2-4 red ginseng extract 62.5, 125 and 250 mg/kg/day, respectively. Each dose was dissolved in 0.9% saline (0.5 ml) and administered with 22G gavage needle three times a day for three days. End of study rats were killed and collected liver microsomes for measurement of protein content and anesthetic defluorination activity. - The rates of enflurane and methoxyflurane defluorination by rat liver microsomes determined by incubation of 10 microliters of each anesthetic with 5 mg of microsomal protein.
