    A Selective Ion HPLC-APCI-MS Method for the Quantification of Pentacyclic Triterpenes in an Anxiolytic Botanical Dietary Supplement for the Animal Health Market
    (Natural Product Incorporation, 2019) Liu, Rui; Carballo Arce, Ana Francis; Singh, Ranpreet; Saleem, Ammar ; Rocha, Marco; Mullally, Martha; Otarola-Rojas, Marco; Poveda Alvarrez, Luis; Sanchez-Vindas, Pablo; Garcia, Mario; Baker, John; Merali, Zul; Guerrero-Analco, José A.; Durst, Tony; Harris, Cory; Arnason, John
    A new anti-anxiety dietary supplement was developed for the animal health market, by combining 2 triterpene containing botanicals, Souroubea sympetala (Marcgraviaceae) with Platanus occidentalis (Platanaceae) A validated method for a quality control of the botanical blend was achieved using HPLC-APCIMS. The method resulted in the detection and quantitative determination of betulinic acid (1), and ursolic acid (2) in P. occidentalis and 1, 2, lupeol (3), β-amyrin (4) and α-amyrin (5) in S. sympetala and the finished product ZentrolTM. Detections were at low ng on column for 1 and 2 and in low µg range for 3, 4 and 5 using calibration curves within 10-100 ng (R2 > 0.993). Recovery of spiked samples for all the recoveries observed were > 94%. Inter-day and intraday variations were 0.8-3.5% and 5-10.4%, respectively. These results indicate the suitability of the developed analytical method to detect and quantify triterpenes of raw materials used in the manufacture of natural health products

    Clinical observations and safety profile of oral herbal products, souroubea and platanus spp: a pilot-toxicology study in dogs
    (Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2014-04-07) Villalobos, Pedro; Baker, John; Sánchez Vindas, Pablo; Durst, Tony; Masic, Aleksandar; Arnasont, John
    This pilot-study evaluated the toxicity and safety profi le of two herbal products Souroubea spp Botanical Blend (SSBB) and Platanus Tree Bark (PTB) after oral administration to dogs at elevated doses for 28 days. SSBB and PTB botanicals are the major active ingredients of Sin Susto, a novel natural product for the treatment of anxiety in dogs. Three healthy female dogs were administered elevated doses of either SSBB, PTB or a placebo and then monitored for the occurrence of any systemic and local adverse events. Data from this pilot-study revealed that SSBB and PTB had no untoward effects on the health of dogs and were deemed safe which enabled the design and execution of a larger controlled target safety and toxicology study for Sin Susto.
