lonicera maackii/potassium

Nine new homosecoiridoid alkaloids, named lonijaposides O-W (1-9), along with 19 known compounds, were isolated from an aqueous extract of the flower buds of Lonicera japonica. Their structures and absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic data analysis and chemical methods.

A reliable and repeatable isotachophoretic method for the simultaneous determination of K(+), Na(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+), and ammonium in berries of different blue honeysuckle cultivars was developed. The usefulness of the complex-forming equilibria in determining the cations mentioned above was studied.

In this present study, we investigated the anti-hyperuricemic and anti-gouty arthritis effect of a puried water-soluble polysaccharide (LJP-1) obtained from Lonicera japonica. A series of characterization of the purified polysaccharide were carried out in this paper. Monosaccharide analysis showed

Xanthine oxidase (XOD) catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and then to uric acid, and is a key enzyme in the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia. The ability of extracts of Lonicera hypoglauca (Caprifoliaceae) to inhibit XOD was investigated in this study. An ethanol extract (LH-crude) of
