ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the safety of Solanumprocumbens by studying its acute toxicity to mice. Methods The dosage of 100% death ( Dm) and 100% survive ( Dn) were determined. Five groups were set between the dosage of Dm and Dn in a 1:0.8 ratio, and then were intragastrically administrated once at the dosage of 250,200,160,128,102.4 g·kg-1 respectively.Toxicity and mortality of mice after intragastricly administration of Solanumprocumbens were observed for 14 days continuously. Results After four hours of administration, there were death in each group except the lowest dosage group (102.4 g·kg-1).Number of death of the groups 250,200,160 and 128 g·kg-1 were 10,8,6 and 3 respectively.LD50 of Solanumprocumbens was 153. 02 g · kg-1 , the 95% confidence interval was ( 136. 55, 171. 47 ) g · kg-1 . Conclusion Solanumprocumbens has a certain toxicity.More attention should be payed to its toxicity for clinical rational drug use.

ABSTRACT
Object To establish the method for quality control of Fushengkang Capsule. Methods Semen Livistonae Chinensis, Fructus Camptothecae Acuminatae and Rhizoma Curcumae in this capsule were identified by TLC. The content of camptothecine was determined by HPLC. Condition of HPLC was: Dikma Diamonsil C 18 column (250 mm? 4 6 mm, 5 ?m) the mobile phase was a mixture of methanol water (55∶45), the flow rate was 0 8 mL/min, and detection wavelength at 254 nm. Results The spots of TLC were clear and concentrative. There was a good linear relationship for camptothecine within the range of 0 050 6 - 0 253 0 ?g. The average recovery was 96 90%, RSD=1 74% (n=6). Conclusion This method is sensitive, accurate, reproducible and exclusive. It can be used for quality control of Fushengkang Capsule
ABSTRACT
Objective To optimize the method and condition s for the extraction process of Fushuning Granules.Methods Different factors and levels were in vestigated by orthogonal design wit h yields of oleanolic acid and tanshi noneⅡ A as the markers.The yields of effective com ponents by percolation and reflux we re compared.Results The extraction ratio by re-flux was higher than that by percolation.The primary factors influencin g extraction ratio by reflux were the pulverization degree of medicinal materials,concentration of alcohol,refluxing times and refluxing perio d.Conclusion The opti-mum extraction process was:refluxing and extracting the pulverized med icinal materials for 3times(1hours each time )with 6-fold 90%alcohol added in the f irst time and then 5-fold in the secon d and the third time.
