Objective: The HPLC method was established for assessment of quality of Lasiosphaera seu Calvatia (LSC) based on the determined indicator of ergosterol. The contents of ergosterol in 42 batches of LSC were comparatively analyzed. Methods: The contents of ergosterol in LSC from different origins were determined by HPLC. The conditions were as follows: BDS Hypersil C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm); flow rate: 1.0 mL/min; detection wavelength: 282 nm; column temperature: 30 ℃; injection volume: 20 μL; mobile phase: acetonitrile (A): 0.1% formic acid (B) as the mobile phase gradient elution: 0-15 min, 95% A, 15-50 min, 100% A. Results: The HPLC method to determine the ergosterol content of puffball was established.The ranges of ergosterol contents among different samples was 0.009 9%-0.150 3%. Conclusion: The contents of ergosterol in different LSC are obviously different, and the quality of commercial LSC is not coincident. So the quality control of LSC a needs further normalization and standardization. The data in this paper would provide a reasonable reference for the quality control of LSC.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Asiaticoside cationic liposomes,and to investigate the characteristics of drug release in vitro. METHODS:The thin film dispersion method was used to prepare liposome;using encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading amount as index,the formulation of Asiaticoside liposomes was optimized by central composite design-response surface method with the ratio of drug to lipid(X1),the ratio of cholesterol to lipid(X2)and the concentration of D-mannose(X3) as factors. Using sodium lauryl sulfate as medium,in vitro release characteristics of cationic liposomes prepared with 1%octadecyl-amine was investigated by bag filter method,and compared with those of Asiaticoside solution and common liposome. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was X1 0.07,X2 0.17 and X3 0.03 g/ml. The encapsulation efficiency was (75.529 ± 1.071)%,and drug-loading amount was(2.539±0.029)%(n=3);the deviation from the predicted values were -0.217% and 0.205%;1% oc-tadecylamine was add into formulation to obtain cationic liposomes,and the Zeta potential had changed from -5.6 mV to 20.8 mV. in vitro accumulative release rates of Asiaticoside solution,common liposomes and cationic liposomes were 89.13%(12 h), 87.58%(72 h) and 94.46%(72 h),and the latter was in line with Weibull model. CONCLUSIONS:Asiaticoside cationic lipo-somes have high encapsulation efficiency,and can releases for 72 h.

A highly sensitive and selective method for specific DNA sequence detection is developed using a non-labeled molecular beacon (MB) and a nucleic acid dye Hoechst 33258. It is demonstrated by a specific DNA sequence of wild-type HBV as a model system. In this strategy, the stem of MB is completely designed as C/G base pairs. In the absence of target DNA, the interaction between Hoechst 33258 and the MBs is very weak,and the fluorescence signals of Hoechst 33258 is very low. In the presence of target DNA, the MBs hybridize with the target DNA and form double-stranded structure. Hoechst 33258 binds to dsDNA, and the fluorescence intensity is significantly enhanced. Under the optimum conditions, the fluorescence intensity of Hoechst 33258 exhibits good linear dependence on target DNA concentration in the range of 2 × 10-10-2 × 10-8 mol/L. The fitted regression equation is △I=3. 3439C(10-10 mol/L) ﹢18. 6949(R2=0. 9982) with a correlation coefficient of 0. 9982 (R2), and the detection limit is 9 × 10-11 mol/L (3σ). The proposed method has good precision, simple operation, fast detection speed, low detection limit, high accuracy and high sensitivity.

BACKGROUND:Zinc oxide has shown extraordinary antibacterial effect. But the antibacterial mechanisms of zinc oxide have not been wel developed, and the safety of zinc oxide has not yet been confirmed.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the antibacterial mechanism and safety of zinc oxide based on the current research situation of zinc oxide.
METHODS:The CNKI database and PubMed database (2005-01/2013-08) were used to search the related articles about zinc oxide antibacterial mechanism and safety. The retrieval keywords were“zinc oxide or ZnO, antibacterial”,“zinc oxide or ZnO, safety”both in English and Chinese.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSTION:The antibacterial mechanism of zinc oxide is complex. Zinc oxide reveals its antibacterial power by photo catalysis, zinc ion dissolve out, and active oxygen. But the relationship between photo catalysis and active oxygen is different based on different studies. The safety of zinc oxide is not confirmed, and different studies have different results. Especial y for the nano-zinc oxide, some studies have showed that the zinc oxide is toxic. Al of these mean much more researches are needed to verify the safety of zinc oxide.
