ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the RP-HPLC method for the determination of cinnamic acid in different parts of Cortex Cinnamomi which comes from Wulong and Xinyi in Guangdong province. Methods The samples were assayed on a DiamonsilTM C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)with temperature at 40℃. The mobile phase was aqueous acetonitrile-0.01 %phosphoric acid (gradient elution); flow rate was 1 mL/min and the detection wavelength was at 278 nm. Results The contents of cinnamic acid in one-year branches were the highest in the samples from the two differents habitats.Conclusion The method is simple,reliable,repeatable,and is suitable for the determination of cinnamic acid in Cortex Cinnamomi.
ABSTRACT
Objective To determine the content of monotropein in the different parts of Morinda officinalis and in its counterfeit species.Methods The method of HPLC was used with chromatographic conditions as follows:Kromasil C18(150 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) column,the mobile phase of methol-0.4 %phosphate solution(5:95→28.8:71.2,15 min),the velocity of flow being 1 mL/min,the detection wavelength at 231 nm and column temperature being 25 ℃.Results The content of monotropein in the leaves and radix of Morinda officinalis and Morinda parvifolis is the highest.Conclusion It is reasonable to replace the root of Morinda officinalis with the leaves of Morinda officinalis and Morinda parvifolis for the monotropein extraction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the genuineness of Amomum Villosum Lour.at DNA molecular level.Methods Forty -nine samples from 3different habitats(Chunwan,Panlong,Yunnan)were analyzed by RAPD.The data of amp li-fied bands were analyzed by the softw are Popgene 3.2and Phylip.Results The molecular phylogenetic tree of Amomum Villosum Lour.from 3habitats indic ated that the Chunwan' s had a close consanguinity with the Panlong' s and the consan-guinity of the Yunnan' s was distant to the Chunwan' s and the Panlong' s.Conclusion This provide evidence of the gen-uineness of A.Villosum Lour.at molecular level.
ABSTRACT
The infectivity of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers' blood was studied in 36 recipients.Their positive rate of anti-HBs was 56.2% before transfusion. After transfusion hepatitis B developed in 2 recipients and SGPT became abnormal in 4(11.1%) of the 36 recipients. The anti-HBs became positive in 83.3% (10/12). The incidence of hepatitis B among blood recipients was lower than that of Western Europe and North America, but similar to that in Southeast Asia. The overall infection rate of HBV was higher than that of the other localities. The infectivity of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers' blood correlated well with the titer of HBsAg. There was no apparent changes in the titer of HBsAg in all the 3 recipients with positive HBsAg before transfusion.No new HBsAg carriers developed in 36 recipients.
