Simultaneous Quantitative Determination of Five Saponins in Notoginseng Total Saponins by HPLC with a Monolithic Column / 中国药师

Objective:To establish a rapid HPLC method for the quantitative determination of 5 saponins ( notoginsenoside R1 , ginsenoside Rg1 ,ginsenoside Re,ginsenoside Rb1 and ginsenoside Rd) in Notoginseng total saponins using a monolithic column. Meth-ods:The analysis was performed on a Merck Chromolith Performance RP-18e column (100 mm × 4. 6 mm,2μm) with gradient elution of acetonitrile and water. The detection wavelength was set at 203 nm. Results:Satisfactory separation of all analytes was obtained in 20 min. All calibration curves showed good linearity within the testing ranges (r≥0.9998). The average recoveries were between 98. 6% and 100. 4%. The RSDs were less than 2. 1% (n=6). Conclusion:The method is efficient and accurate for the quality con-trol of Notoginseng total saponins.

Molecular characteristics of two Phi glutathione S-transferases in Selaginella moellendorffii / 生物工程学报

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is important in plants to resist various stresses. In this study, two Phi GST genes (SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2) were cloned from Selaginella moellendorffii. SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 genes encode proteins of 215 amino acid residues. Gene expression analysis showed that the two genes were expressed in roots, stems and leaves. The recombinant SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 proteins were overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and purified by Ni-affinity chromatography. SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 had the catalytic activity towards 1-Chloro-2,4-Dieitrobenzene, 4-Chloro-7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl), and 4-Nitrobenzyl chloride substrates. SmGSTF1 also had the activity towards Fluorodifen and Cumyl hydroperoxide (Cum-OOH), whereas SmGSTF2 not. The enzyme kinetics analysis showed that SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 had high affinity towards glutathione, and low affinity towards 1-Chloro-2, 4-Dieitrobenzene. The enzymatic activity of SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 had high catalytic activity between pH 7 and 8.5, and between 45 and 55 °C. SmGSTF1 and SmGSTF2 may have an important role in the resistance of Selaginella moellendorfii against stress.

Clinical observation of oral administration and external application of traditional Chinese medicine for treat meat early stage of osteofascial compartment syndrome / 中国基层医药

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of oral administration and external application of traditional Chinese medicine on early stage of osteofascial compartment syndrome. Methods56 early osteofascial compartment syndrome patients had assigned in two groups randomly, each group had 28 patients. The treatment group used topo-application Xiaoyu tincture,after aseptic gauze sodden by physic liquor,affected limb would coverd by the aseptic gauze and change of dressing every two hours,oral administration of Xingqihuayu decoction. The control group used 250ml of 20％ mannitol with dehydration therapy,two times everyday;654-2 bullet 10ml to intramuscular injection,three times every day. ResultsAfter the treatment,the results showed that the treatment group was much better than the control group at the time of ache abatement,swelling regression and disappear of all levels injury, arteriae dorsalis pedis changing. The difference had statistical significance( P ＜ 0.05). ConclusionTopo-application chinese drugs pharmaceutics of Xiaoyu tincture and oral administration of Xingqihuayu decoction was a available nonspecific treatment to early osteofascial compartment syndrome.
