A critical courier role of volatile oils from Dalbergia odorifera for cardiac protection in vivo by QiShenYiQi

Abstract Component-based Chinese medicine (CCM) is derived from traditional Chinese medicine but produced with modern pharmaceutical standard and clearer clinical indications. However, it still faces challenges of defining individual component contribution in the complex formula. Using QiShenYiQi (Q...
