ABSTRACT
High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was used to high performance separate and prepare lignans from Schisandrae chinensis fructus. The solvent system is composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (9 : 1 : 5 : 5) and n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (9 : 1 : 9 : 5), speed is at 900 r.min-1, and flow rate is at 2.0 mL.min-1. Five fractions from Schisandrae chinensis fructus extract were separated and prepared with one HSCCC process. They were identified as schisandrin, gomisin J, schisandrol B, schisantherin A and deoxyschizandrin by electrospray ionization-multiple tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn), respectively. Their contents were obtained in 98.74%, 94.32%, 99.53%, 94.23% and 98.68% by ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), separately. The rapid and simple method can be applied for the preparation of lignans from Schisandrae chinensis fructus.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of MT egg-milk powder on the contents of lead,zinc,iron and copper in brain and femur of lead poisoning rats. Methods 30 Wistar rats were divided into three groups(n=10): normal control group, lead poisoning group and lead poisoning rats treated with MT egg-milk powder group. After treated with 0.2% lead acetate daily for three weeks, the rats were fed with 500 g?L~ -1 MT egg-milk powder for three weeks. At the end of the experiment,samples of brain and femur were collected for trace elements detection by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The concentration of hemoglobin was determined by haemiglobincyanide method. Results Compared with the control, the contents of zinc and hemoglobin in brain and femur were significantly decreased (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of metallothionein(MT) egg-milk power on excluding lead in vivo in saturnic rats.Methods A total of 60 Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: control(n=20),black control(n=10) and lead-treated groups(n=30).After the rats in lead-treated group were treated with 0.2% lead acetate daily for three weeks,they were randomly divided into two groups: lead-treated group(n=10) and MT egg-milk power treated group(n=20).The rats in the last group were treated with MT egg-milk power for three weeks.At the end of the experiment,samples of whole blood,liver,kidney,brain,femur,faeces and urine were collected for lead detection by atomic absorption spectroscopy.Results As compared with controls,the lead content of samples were significantly elevated in lead-treated rats(P
