Improved anticancer effect of ginseng extract by microwave-assisted processing through the generation of ginsenosides Rg3, Rg5 and Rk1
In this study, we demonstrated the efficient structural conversion of ginsenosides, which enhances the anticancer activity of ginseng by microwave irradiation. The microwave-irradiated product of ginseng (MG) had a higher content of ginsenosides, Rg3+Rg5+Rk1, particularly Rg5 and Rk1, and, thus, has...
