Open publisher page 44 citations

Abstract

A new Ginkgo biloba leaf extract, BioGinkgo 27/7, was prepared using a method that enriches ginkgolide B. The bioavailability of ginkgolides in these extracts was assessed in rabbits in comparison with a commercially available standardized 24/6 extract. It was found that, after a single dose, a higher concentration of ginkgolides was maintained for a longer period of time with these extracts than was found with commercial extract prepared by existing methods.
