OBJECTIVE:To establish the detection method for pyrogen-related factor interleukin 1β(IL-1β)through optimiz-ing detection condition,and to conduct preliminary methodology study. METHODS:The in vitro fresh human whole blood detec-tion method was used. The bacterial endotoxin standard solution(5,2,0.8,0.32 EU/ml)were added into diluted blood;using di-luted RPMI 1640 as blank control,the content of IL-1β in blood sample was determined by ELISA after incubation. The relation-ship of the addition of different attenuants(RPMI 1640 culture,sterilized normal saline)and fetal bovine serum,final dilution vol-ume fraction(40%,20%,10%and 8.3%)and storage duration(2,5,6,8,26 h)with the contents of endotoxin IL-1βwere in-vestigated,and related coefficient and detection limits were calculated. Different dilution times of Qingkailing injection and Ginaton injection samples and interference solutions were added into diluted blood to detect their recovery. RESULTS:The results indicated that RPMI 1640 media and 40% diluted blood was more sensitive(detection limit was 0.128 EU/ml,r=0.993);while the addition of fetal bovine serum didn’t influence the results. The detection limits of blood sample storied at 4 ℃ for 26 h were 0.128 EU/ml (r>0.990). When Qingkailing injection and Ginaton injection were diluted 10,32 and more times,the detection method was not interfered and the recovery ranged 68%-118%. CONCLUSIONS:Established in vitro fresh human whole blood detection method can be used for the detection of pyrogen,and provides trial evidence for the pyrogen detection of TCM injection.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of N,N'-diacetyl-L-cystine in com-pound amino acid injection.Methods:The HPLC method parameters were as follows,The Atlantis dC18 column(4.6 mm × 150 mm,3 μm),The mobile phase was aammonium formate solution(315 mg ammonium formate was taken and dissolved with 960 mL water)-acetonitrile-methanoic acid(970∶30∶1)as a mobile phase,at a flow rate of 0.7 mL·min-1,and the detection wavelength of 210 nm.Results:The linear range of N,N'-diacetyl-L-cystine was 2.697-53.94 μg·mL-1(r=0.999 9),the limits of detection and quantification were 1.4 μg·mL-1 and 4.4 μg·mL-1 respectively.The average recovery was 100.2％with RSD of 0.5％.Conclusion:The method was proved to be suitable for the determination of N,N'()-diacetyl-L-cystine in compound amino acid injection.
