The Application of Time Driven Activity-Based Costing Approach in the Mode of Hospital Total Cost Accounting / 中国卫生经济

Objective: To build total cost allocation model based on Time Driven Activity-based Costing (TDABC) and explore how to use it to improve the hospital cost accounting system. Methods: Take an ultrasonic cardiogram department of public hospital as a cost object to estimate the cost of medical service, as well as the efficiency of service and operating benefit analysis by using TDABC method. Results: Parts of routine services of the ultrasonic cardiogram departments having policy loss in a public hospital, the department’ s capacity are not fully utilized in a certain period. Conclusion: TDABC not only plays positive role in raising the level of hospital cost management, but also provides useful references and scientific basis for the formulation and revision of medical service fee and carring out the DRGs payment.

Analysis on Cistanche tubulosa that parasites on different Tamarixs by RAPD / 中国中药杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study genetic difference of Cistanche tubulosa that parasites on different Tamarixs and give a reference to select host of C. tubulosa.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Sixteen selected primers by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to analyze genetic distance of C. tubulosa that parasites on eight different hosts.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Sixty-six point seven percent of the total bands were polymorphic, that proved the genetic diversity level in different C. tubulosa types was relatively high, especially the two that parasites on Tamarix hispida and T. chinensis. Cultural areas had more remarkable influence on genetic distance of Cistanche tubulosa than the hosts, and introduction was helpful to maintain the more genetic diversity in different C. tubulosa types. Genetic difference in different C. tubulosa types was far less than that between different species in Cistanche.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>C. tubulosa types which parasite on different Tamarixs have high genetic diversity.</p>

Soluble Proteins SDS-PAGE of C.tubulosa(Schenk) R.Wight / 中华中医药杂志

Objective: To identify 5 specimens of C.tubulosa(Schenk) R.Wight on different parasitifers,and explore the relationship between electrophoretic fingerprint and identification on soluble-protein,meanwhile providing data for establishing electrophoresis pattern library of Chinese crude drugs.Methods: The electrophoretic characteristics of soluble-proteins from 5 specimens of C.tubulosa(Schenk) R.Wight on different parasitifers were studied with SDS-PAGE.Results: It indicated that reproducible and high resolvable electrophoresis patterns of soluble proteins of C.tubulosa(Schenk) R.Wight on different parasitifers by SDS-PAGE.Their degrees of polymorphism were 55.56%.Conclusion: Each specimen had its own unique band pattern distinguish from the others.The electrophoresis pattern of SDS-PAGE of soluble proteins can be regarded as protein fingerprints for identification of C.tubulosa(Schenk) R.Wight on different parasitifers.

Study on viability of Cistanche deserticola seeds / 中草药

Objective To improve the 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) solution method for measuring the viability of Cistanche deserticola seeds and investigate the change in viability during storage at 5 ℃. Methods The effect of the testa,TTC concentration,sodium hypochlorite concentration (NaClO),and staining time were studied,and seed viability during storage at 5 ℃ was measured with the improved method. Results Seeds were kept for 48 h in 0.5% TTC solution at 40 ℃,and then for 2 h in 0.2% NaClO solution;Seed viability was measured under a stereomicroscope. Storing seeds of C. deserticola for 1 to 2 years at 5 ℃ had no significant effects on their viability. However,the percentage of seeds with high viability was increased with the extension of the storage time at 5 ℃. Conclusion A convenient and rapid method for measuring the viability of C. deserticola seeds is developed. Storing C. deserticola seeds at 5 ℃ could improve their viability

Enhancing accumulation of indole alkaloids in Catharanthus roseus leaves / 中草药

Objective To study the effect of three kinds of reagent: ethrel, Aspirin, tryptophan on the accumulation of medicinal component in Catharanthus roseus leaves. Methods To treat these potplants of C. roseus in green house with the three reagents in different concentrations, respectively. Then, two days later, the contents of catharanthine and vinblastine in leaves were determined by RP-HPLC. Results The three reagents can obviously improve the accumulation of indole alkaloids, including catharanthine and vinblastine in C. roseus leaves. Their optimum treatment concentration was finally comfirmed. Conclusion These three kinds of reagent apparently promote the accumulation of total indole alkoloids in the leaves of C. roseus.

Morphology of seed germination and haustorium formation in Cistanche deserticola / 中草药

Object The process of seed germination and haustorium formation in Cistanche deserticola Y C Ma was observed Methods Seeds were inoculated on culture medium, the process of seed germination and haustorium formation were observed using light and electron microscopy Results The seedling sprouted after two weeks, then a tube like organ formed, finally the apex expanded to attachment organ The outer papillar surface of the extended apex bears wall protuberances that are encircled with a thick cuticular belt and covered with a thin cuticle Conclusion The seed germination of C deserticola is single pole of racidle The attachment organ adheres host first
