A Research on the Limited Amount Index of the Pesticide Residue and Heavy Metal Content of Notoginseng Medicinal Materials and Slices Based on the Pollution-Free Quality / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

This study analyzed the pesticide residue and heavy metal contents in Panaxnotoginseng (Burk.) F.H.Chen to provide the basis for the quality criterion of pollution-freemedicinal materials and slices of notoginseng.We randomly collected 100 samples of notoginseng from farmer's markets,producing areas of notoginseng and internet markets.We entrusted the third-party authoritative testing institutions to detect 203 items of the pesticide residues and 4 items of heavy metals.According to relative standards of Japan,Korea,the United States and the European Union,we analyzed and summarized the data in this study.We confirmed the 25 species of pesticides with high operating frequency and detection rate and the limited amount index of 4 heavy metals.In conclusion,these results enriched the limited amount index of the pesticide residues and heavy metal contents based on the previous notoginseng standard system serving as the quality criterion of pollution-free notoginseng,which was applicative and operable.

Content Determination of Heavy Metals in Xiaohuoluo Pills by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry / 中国药师

Objective:To determine the content of lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury and copper in Xiaohuoluo pills produced by 34 enterprises. Methods:Using microwave digestion, the contents of lead, cadmium and arsenic were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry;the content of mercury was determined by hydride generation atomic absorption spectrophotometry;the content of copper was determined by air-acetylene flame atomic absorption. Results: Lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury in Xiao-huoluo pills from 34 different manufacturers were beyond the limits in various degrees. Conclusion: The method is simple and accu-rate, and can be used in the heavy metal determination of Xiaohuoluo pills.
