OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for the simultaneous determination of contents of 4 heavy metal elements in cultured Cordyceps militaris. METHODS:The samples were digested by nitric acid heating method and then determined by ICP-MS including radio-frequency power of 1.15 kW,sampling depth of 65 nm,auxiliary gas flow rate of 1.0 L/min,cooling gas flow of 13.0 L/min,temperature of 25 ℃,automatic plasma. RESULTS:The linear ranges of arsenic(As),cadmium(Cd),mer-cury (Hg) and lead (Pb) were 0-20 μg/mL(r=0.9970),0-10 μg/mL(r=0.9995),0-5 μg/mL(r=0.9955),0-20 μg/mL(r=0.9960),respectively. Detectio limit were 0.128,0.003,0.002,0.004 mg. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 6.5%. Recoveries of them were 90.4%-100.6%(RSD=3.45%,n=9),94.3%-101.3%(RSD=2.93%,n=9), 90.0%-102.3%(RSD=4.03%,n=9),92.3%-103.0%(RSD=3.53%,n=9),respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The method is sim-ple,precise,stable,reproducible,and can be used for simultaneous determination of contents of 4 heavy metal elements in cul-tured C. militaris. The contents of As,Cd,Hg and Pb in 10 batches of sample are all in line with related national standards.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of 5 nucleoside from different parts of cultured Cordyceps militaris. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on InertSustain C18 column with mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.02 mol/L monobasic potassium phosphate solution (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 254 nm,the column temperature was 30 ℃. RESULTS:The linear ranges of uridine, inosine,guanosine,adenosine and cordycepin were 0.568-3.408 μg(r=0.9999),0.284-1.704 μg(r=0.9999),0.264-1.584 μg(r=0.9999),0.232-1.392 μg(r=0.9999)and 1.672-10.032 μg(r=0.9998),respectively. RSDs of precision,stability and repeatabili-ty tests were all lower than 3.0%. The recoveries were 98.2%-103.9%(RSD=1.97%,n=9),96.2%-101.6%(RSD=1.76%,n=9),96.7%-102.0%(RSD=1.94%,n=9),95.1%-99.4%(RSD=1.43%,n=9) and 95.6%-101.3%(RSD=1.82%,n=9). CON-CLUSIONS:The method is simple,precise,stable and repeatable,and can be used for simultaneous determination of 5 nucleoside from cultured C. militaris,the content of nucleosides are different in different parts of C. militaris.

COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which has being spreading around the world, posing a serious threat to human health and lives. Neutralizing antibodies and small molecule inhibitors for virus replication cycle are the main antiviral treatment for novel coronavirus recommended in China. To further promote the rational use of antiviral therapy in clinical practice, the National Center for Infectious Diseases (Beijing Ditan Hospital Capital Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine) invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory and intensive care to develop an Expert Consensus on Antiviral Therapy of COVID-19 based on the Diagnosis and Treatment Guideline for COVID-19 ( trial version 10) and experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in China. The consensus is concise, practical and highly operable, hopefully it would improve the understanding of antiviral therapy for clinicians and provide suggestions for standardized medication in treatment of COVID-19.
