Analytical grade standards of biologically active ingredients of botanicals (curcumin, demetoxycurcumin, bisdemetoxycurcumin, α-boswellic acid, β-boswellic acid, 11-keto-β-boswellic acid, 3-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid, neoandrographolide and piperine) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA), while andrographolide (≥98.0%) was obtained from TCI (Tokyo, Japan). Warfarin (PESTANAL®, analytical standard) was obtained by Sigma-Aldrich. Buffer solutions were prepared using phosphate buffer saline (PBS) tablets (Sigma Aldrich), di-sodium hydrogen phosphate dihidrate (buffer substance for chromatography) and sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate (EMSURE® reagent Ph. Eur.) both by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany. Organic solvents n-octanol (gradient grade for liquid chromatography, ≥99%) and methanol (gradient grade for liquid chromatography LiChrosolv® Reag. Ph Eur.) as well as formic acid (for LC-MS, LiChropur®, 97.5–98.5%) and dimethyl sulfoxide (suitable for HPLC, ≥99.7%) were obtained by Merck KGaA. Dead volume of HPLC system was evaluated using sodium nitrate (reagent for USP/NF monographs) by J.T. Baker, Gliwice, Poland. Ultrapure water was produced using an Ultra Clear UV water purifying system (SG Water, Barsbuttel, Germany); resistivity > 18 MΩ/cm at 25 °C and total organic carbon < 5 ppb.

The reference standards keto boswellic acid (1), 3-O-Acetyl 11-keto β-Boswellic acid (2), α-Boswellic acid (3), β-Boswellic acid (4), 3-O-Acetyl-ɑ-boswellic acid (5) and 3-O-Acetyl-β-Boswellic acid (6) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). The purity of reference standards was >98% (Confirmed with HPLC and MS). Acetonitrile and formic acid were obtained from BioSolv (ULC/MS Grade) (Dieuze, France). Ammonium hydroxide solution (25%), methanol and Milli Q water were procured from Merck KGaALi Chrosolv LC-MS grade (Darmstadt, Germany).

All bacterial strains
are listed in Tables S1 and S2. S. aureus USA300; S. aureus USA400, MRSA 252; S. aureus ATCC
29213; S. aureus ATCC 25904; and S. aureus ATCC 25923 were purchased from American
Type Culture Collection (ATCC). Animal- and human-origin clinical
isolates, including MRSA, E. coli,
and K. pneumoniae, were collected in
Shandong and Jilin, China; these isolates carried one or more β-lactamases.27 (link)S. aureus 8325-4
was obtained from Prof. Timothy J. Foster.15 (link)E. coli BL21(DE3)(pET28a-SP-NDM-1)
carried an NDM-1 gene originating from K. pneumoniae QD-KP2. E. coli BL21(DE3)(pET21a)
was used as a type C β-lactamase-positive strain. In addition, E. coli BL21(DE3)(pET28a) and S. aureus ATCC 25923 were used as negative control strains.
OA and its
analogues (corosolic acid (CA), ursolic acid, maslinic acid, glycyrrhizic
acid, α-boswellic acid, and arjunolic acid) (Figure S1) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO.
All antibiotics were purchased from the National Institute for the
Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products (Beijing, China).

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.
