Thirty-two mice were randomly divided into two groups and injected intraperitoneally (IP) with HK dissolved in soybean oil or HKE at a dose of 20 mg/kg. At 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h after injection, the mice were sacrificed to collect plasma and hearts. Hearts were accurately weighed, homogenized in 0.5 ml deionized water with a tissue homogenizer, and extracted with methanol. Tissue homogenate extracts and plasma were analyzed using an ultra-fast liquid chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometer system (LC/MS) (UFLC system, Shimadzu; AB5500 mass spectrometer, Applied Biosystems).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
