Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To establish the method of percutaneous microdialysis of "Water-lipid" binary components of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and to study the characteristics of percutaneous penetration enhancement in vivo in different processing method of Fu's cupping therapy(FCT).
METHODS The influence of perfusion velocity, temperature and drug concentration on the recovery rate of the probe was investigated. The consistency of the permeability of the probe in vitro and in vivo was investigated by incremental and decrement methods. The skin kinetics of water-soluble and fat-soluble components of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma was studied under different FCT treatment times(FCT on the back for 5, 10 and 15 min).
RESULTS The higher the flow rate, the lower the recovery rate; the higher the temperature, the higher the recovery rate. Under different drug concentrations, the recovery rate and the loss rate of the probe were approximately equal; and the recovery rate of the probe was stable within 10 h. FCT on the back for 15 min had a significant effect on the permeation of water-soluble components, and FCT on the back for 15, 10 min had a significant effect on the transdermal permeation of the fat-soluble components of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma.
CONCLUSION The FCT technique can be used as a new physical penetration technique.
