ABSTRACT
In order to ensure the superior quality and safety of the raw materials of Reduning Injection-Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, a standard operating procedure was established on the base of Good Agriculture Practice (GAP) of Chinese herbal medicine as well as practice investigation and experiments. This standard operating procedure provides the technical requirements for the production suitability, growing, field management, diseases and pests controlling, harvesting and processing, packing and storing, transporting, and quality monitoring of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos. The experiences and problems in the process of the standardized planting were analyzed and discussed.
ABSTRACT
Aims: To evaluate the present status of microbiology laboratory by comparing the test results of investigator with that of laboratory staff for sputum for Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB) withZiehl-NeelsenStaining (Z-N Staining) at primary and secondary level andto assess the present status of a microbiology laboratory for sputum for Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB) withZiehl-NeelsenStaining (Z-N Staining) at tertiary level. Material and Methods: Type of study : Cross sectional, descriptive type of study. Place of study: Department of Microbiology of Dhaka Medical College,Narsingdi Sadar Hospital,Narsingdi,PolashUpzilla Health Complex ,Polash, Narsingdi andDOTS centers. Duration of study: From July, 2007 to June,2008 Method of sampling: Non probability, purposive and convenient sampling Sample Size: Sputum for AFB: 300 sputum samples were collected for detection of AFB by direct Z-N staining, Z-N staining after bleach centrifugation and Auramine phenol staining before implementing SOP. After following SOP 150 sputum samples were collected and tested in direct Z-N method. Results: In the present study, before SOP out of 100 sputum smear at each level, discrepancy was found in 3% cases at primary level, 2% cases at secondary level and 1% case at tertiary level.After following SOP out of 50 sputum smear at each level, discrepancy was reduced to 2% cases at primary level and no discrepancy was found at secondary and tertiary level. Conclusion: Each laboratory must have SOP for laboratory testing to set the minimum acceptable standard for every test in order to improve and maintain the quality of laboratory services.
ABSTRACT
Object To study the standard operating procedure (SOP) for Alisma plantago aquatica L. so as to make its high quality, high yield and public nuisance free, and correspond to international standards, then enter into world market. Methods The historical culture, essential ecological environment, species resources and seed selection for the plant were investigated, the content of index components and active components in the plant was determined. Results The traditional cultural manner was improved and SOP for the plant was set up. Conclusion The plant cultured under SOP is excellent.
