Chemical Analysis of SU-Eohyeol Pharmacopuncture and Its In Vitro Biological Activities.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Pharmacopuncture (PA) is widely used in traditional Korean medicine to treat various diseases, including abdominal obesity, nervous system diseases, and musculoskeletal disorders. In the present study, we attempted to identify the chemical components of SU-Eohyeol PA (SUEHP), comprising extracts of eight medicinal herbs and Cervi Parvum Cornu, using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and evaluated the in vitro anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities of SUEHP. Methods: Volatile components of SUEHP were identified by GC-MS analysis of the n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), and distilled water-acetonitrile (DW-CAN) solvent fractions. LC-MS was performed to identify small metabolites of SUEHP us
