Autologous blood clot was used to produce pulmonary macroembolism, and lycopodium spores to produce microembolism in nolmal mongrel dogs. Pressures were recorded from the pulmonary artery, left atrium and femoral artery; cardiac output and pulmonary blood volume (PBV) were determined using sequential indicator dilution curves from injections into the pulmonary artery and left atrium. Macroand m...

Modified lycopodium spore method has been developed for simple and rapid quantification of herbal powdered formulations. Lycopodium spore method was performed on Panchsakar churna, an Ayurvedic formulation used in constipation and piles. Estimation of diagnostic characters of each ingredient of Panchsakar churna individually and collectively on the powdered formulation was carried out. Microsco...

Ten new alkaloids, lycoposerramines-F (1), -G (2), -H (3), -I (4), -J (5), -K (6), -L (7), -M (8), -N (9), and -O (10), having lycopodine-related structures, were isolated from the club moss Lycopodium serratum THUNB. and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and/or chemical transformation.
