Objective To study the influence of different time of lavipeditum with traditional Chinese medicine on recovery of gastrointestinal function right after cesarean section, to find the best lavipeditum time and improve the therapeutic effect of lavipeditum with traditional Chinese medicine. Methods 388 cases parturents after cesarean section were selected and were randomly divided into the observation group(200 cases)and the control group(188 cases)according to their bed number. The observation group began lavipeditum with Chinese medicine 6 hours after operation, and was scheduled 7:00-8:00 in the morning, 21:00-22:00 in the evening, lasted 20 minutes every time for consecutive 3 to 5 days. the control group started lavipeditum with Chinese medicine one day after operation, and continued lavipeditum any time they wanted. lasted 20 minutes every time for consecutive 3 to 5 days. Recovery of intestinal function were com-pared between the two groups. Results Postoperative recovery time of bowel sounds, anal exhaust time for the first time, the first defecation time, appetite and sleep quality three days after operation in the observation group were beuer compared with the control group. Conclusions Timing of lavipeditum with Chinese medicine is more effective for recovery of gastrointestinal function after cesarean section, it embodies the importance of time medicine and reach best aims.

Objective To purify native F1 antigen from E pestis EV76 strain and determine its ef-ficacy against Y. pestis. Methods A new purification method was developed by the substitution of physical disruption ( glass beads) for organic solvent ( acetone and toluene) one, followed by a combination of ammo-nium sulfate fractionation and SephacrylS-200HR column filtration chromatography. Groups of mice were im-munized with F1 antigen adsorbed to 25% aluminum hydroxide in PBS by intramuscular route. The immu-nized animals were challenged subeutaneously(s, c. ) with 104 CFU of Y. pestis strain 141 at 18 weeks after the primary immunization. Results There was no IgG titre difference between two groups of mice with one-dose immunization, whereas in the two-dose immunization groups, the group F1-40 μg induced a statistically higher antibody titre than the group F1-20 μg. Complete protection was observed for animals immunized with purified F1 antigen by s.c. route. In contrast, the control mice immunized with aluminum hydroxide suc-cumbed to a same dose of Y. pestis 141 challenge. Conclusion This purification strategy is a simple and ef-fective, and can be operated in a large scale. Native F1 antigen extracted from Y. pestis EV76 is highly im-munagenic, and can be used as a key antigen component to develop sub-unit vaccine of plague.
