title: [Experimental study on anaphylactoid reactions induced by different components of shengmai injection (new production process) on Beagle dogs].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the sensitization effect of different components of Shengmai injection (new production process) on Beagle dogs.
  
  
  METHODS
  Beagle dogs were randomly divided into 7 groups, 3 in each group. Each group was respectively injected with 5% glucose injection, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma Rubra extract, Ophiopogonis Radix extract, Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus extract, Schisandrae Chinersis Fructus distillate, Shengmaifang, 0.2% tween 80. The changes of each dog were observed from injection before until 24 hours after injection, and the response level was determined according to the severity of the symptoms. Blood samples were collected before injection and at 10 min after injection for measuring histamine content in plasma by ELISA. Sensitization of the injection was comprehensively determined by combined the response level of symptoms and the histamine level.
  
  
  RESULTS
  One dog of Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma Rubra extract group showed untypical symptoms of anaphylactoid reactions, and serum histamine of two dogs increased more than doubled. The Beagle dogs administrated with 0.2% tween 80 showed typical symptoms of anaphylactoid reactions, while there was no significant increase of serum histamine. Other groups were observed with no typical anaphylactoid reactions.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The sensitization effect of Shengmai injection (new production process) may be associated with Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma Rubra extract and 0.2% tween 80.
