Laboratory for Bioassay and Molecular Pharmacology of Chinese Medicines

Main Research Focuses:

  1. Pharmacological and toxicological study of proprietary Chinese medicinal products by proteomics and metabolomics;

  2. Comprehensive evaluation on the quality and activity of Chinese herbal medicine by using bio-analytical chemistry method;

  3. Analysis on the pharmacokinetics and metabolite spectra of the active compounds derived from herbal medicine and its related products;

  4. Pharmacodynamic studies on the multi-components of Chinese herbal medicine;

  5. Pharmacokinetic study and safety evaluation of herb-drug interactions;

  6. Establishment of the innovative methods and standards for the proprietary Chinese medicinal products by using combinational technologies of “efficacy testing - pharmacokinetic analysis - mass spectrometry” analysis.
