Besides, the foreground of these modern separation technolog ies was discussed.

The studies on the antihypoxia mechanism of 18?-SGA were reported. The survival time of hypoxia mice were longer than those of the control after intraperitoneal injections of 14mg/kg or 21mg/kg of 18?-SGA ( Sodium 18?-glycyrrenetic acid). Changes of various physiological indications after administration of the drug were as follows: blood pH was risen; acidosis was relieved; and the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixed blood was decreaed. The blood thyroxine level remain unchanged. It suggests the utilization of oxygen by the tissues was strengthened.

Objective To explore the relationship between the serum level of leptin,growth hormone(GH),insulin like growth factor-1(IGF-1),insulin like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3)and those modulatine effects on fetal growth.Methods One hundred and thirty-five cases of newborns were divided into 4 groups according to the relationship between born weight and gestational age.Group A:premature infants small for gestational age(SGA),n=30.Group B:premature infants appropriate for gestational age(AGA),n=36.Group C:mature infants small for gestational age,n=32.Group D:mature infants appropriate for gestational age,n=37.All infants were measured se-rum leptin,GH,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 level with radiommunosassay(RIA).Results There were significant difference in the levels of leptin,GH,IGF-1,IGFBP-3 as group C0.05).There were positive correlation between levels of leptin,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 in group A,B and C,while,there was positive correlation between only level of IGF-1 in group D.Conclusions Leptin,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 may play an important role in the fetal growth regulation of premature infants and IUGR infants.IGF-1 also regulate intrauterine growth of group D.Another side,in group D,Leptin,GH,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 don't regulate fetal growth.

The nutritive composition from tissues of Perinereisaibuhitensis was analyzed. The result indicated that there was 67. 43% amino acids and 14. 24% fatty acids in the tissues, a-mong them the EPA comprises 6. 5343% of the total fatty acids and the glutamic acid comprises 10. 288% of the whole tissues. In the meanwhile, the tissues also contains high content of trace elements, such as zinc, iodine, selenium as well as fibrinolytic enzymes and so on, showing a prospective application value in the future.

Active fractions were obtained from the c(?)amworm homogenate by reverse-phase concentration, gel filtration and affinity column chromatography. The MTS/PMS assay was used in the screening of antimicrobial peptide in vitro. The MTS/PMS assay and ELISAAFP method were combined to evaluate the effects of antimicrobial peptide on the proliferation and ?-fetoprotein secretion of HepG2 cells as well as on the proliferation of normal mouse osteoblast MC3T3-E1. The results showed that the purified antimicrobial peptide from clamworm Murphysa sanguinea was a constitutive basic protein with MW 8.1 kDa and pI 8.6, which showed inhibition effects on the proliferation and ?-fetoprotein secretion of HepG2 cells at different levels. These effects have a positive correlation with the concentrations of antimicrobial peptide. No obvious inhibition and damage effects were observed on the normal osteoblast.

Objective:To determine the curative effect of Ginkgo Biloba extract on the back chapped skin in SD rats. Methods:Totally 60 SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats in each. One group was the blank control group, while the other five groups with the same back chapped skin were respectively treated with different therapy regimen, namely one group was the model group without any treatment, one group was urea group treated with the commercially available urea, and the last three groups were re-spectively treated with Ginkgo Biloba extract at the dose of 5%, 1% and 0. 2%. The pathological tissue was observed after HE stai-ning, and the content of hydroxyproline ( Hyp) in skin was determined by alkaline hydrolysis. Results:The skin lesion and the score of pathological section were studied and the content of Hyp in the damaged skin was determined. The comprehensive score for the groups was 0, 13. 2, 7. 4, 11. 0, 5. 8 and 6. 6, respectively, and the content of Hyp was (4. 57 ± 0. 07), (2. 41 ± 0. 27), (3. 29 ± 0.57), (2.55 ±0.31), (3.24 ±0.26) and (3.37 ±0.24) μg·mg-1,respectively. There was significant difference in the curative effect between the Ginkgo Biloba extract groups at high dose (5%) and medium dose (1%) and the model group (P<0. 05), which showed no obvious difference when compared with the urea group (P>0. 05). Conclusion:The extract of Ginkgo Biloba has a certain effect on the back chapped skin in SD rats, which may contribute to the external preparations of Ginkgo Biloba extract.
