Absorption of dodeca-2E,4E,8Z,10E/Z-tetraenoic acid isobutylamides after oral application of Echinacea purpurea tincture

B Dietz et al. Planta Med. 2001 Dec.

Abstract

Alkamides are suspected to contribute to the activity of Echinacea preparations. In preliminary experiments a quantification method for dodeca-2E,4E,8Z,10E/Z-tetraenoic acid isobutylamides in human blood has been developed by which it was possible to detect dodeca-2E,4E,8Z,10E/Z-tetraenoic acid isobutylamides in human blood after oral application of Echinacea purpurea mother tincture.
