Objective To establish a method for the determination of chimoni and forsythiaside in Kangbingdu Oral Liquid(KOL) and to develop a new quality standard for KOL. Methods A RP-HPLC method was adopted for the determination of chimonin and forsythiaside of KOL. The chromatographic conditions were as follows:Kromasil RP-C18(250 mm? 4.6 mm,5 ? m) column was used,a mixture of acetonitrile -0.1 % acetic acid(15 ∶ 85,v/v) served as mobile phase,the flow rate was 0.80 mL? min-1,and detective wavelengths of time process were 0→ 25 min:258 nm,and 25→ 30 min:277 nm. Theoretical plate number of chimoni was over 6000 and that of forsythiaside was over 5000. Results The chimonin showed a good linearity in the range of 48.8ng～ 1525 ng(r=0.999 4),and the linear range of forsythiaside was in the ranged of 56ng～ 1750 ng(r=0.999 5).The mean recovery of chimonin and forsythiaside was 97.65 % and 99.21 % respectively. The content of chimonin in the 10 batches of samples was in the range of 14.40～ 20.41 ? g? mL-1,and that of forsythiaside was in the range of 28.70～ 36.01 ? g? mL-1. Conclusion The developed method has been proven to be simple,stable and reproducible,and can be applied for quality control of the Kangbingdu Oral Liquid.

Objective To establish a HPLC method for the assay of psoralen and isopsoralen in different effective extracts of Fructus Psoraleae. Methods HPLC was carried out on the column of Kromasil RP-C18. The mobile phase was methanol -water(65 ∶35). The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and the UV detection wavelength was 245 nm. Results Good linearity of psoralen was showed within the range of 10.5 ng～525 ng(r= 0.999 3)and isopsoralen within the range of 9 ng～450 ng (r= 0. 999 9). The content of psoralen and isopsoralen differed in different extractions of Fructus Psoraleae. Among them,the extract C (extracted by ethyl acetate ) contained the highest contents of psoralen and isopsoralen,while the contents of psoralen and isopsoralen were very low in the extract D (extracted by n-butyl alcohol) and E (supernatant of water extract). Conclusion The method is simple,accurate and reproducible. The anti-asthma effect and the dose-effect relationship of the different effective extracts of Fructus Psoralea need further pharmacodynamics study.

ObjectiveTo investigate the in vivo biological performance of 5 porous bioceramic scaffolds,which were bioglass,β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP),hydroxyapatite (HA),β-calcium silicate (β-CS) and α-CS,implanted in rabbit dorsal muscle.MethodsThe 5 porous bioceramic scaffolds were fabricated by adding pore-forming materials and sintering,and then were investigated by X-ray diffraction,porosity mensuration and biomechanics test.The scaffolds were implanted into rabbit dorsal muscle for 4,8,12,16 weeks,respectively.The samples were analyzed by X-ray,Micro-CT,histological analysis,scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS).The expression of bone morphogenetic protein(BMP-2) and BMP-7 in the muscle in touch with bioceramic scaffolds were also investigated by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).ResultsThe characteristic analysis of 5 scaffolds showed that the sequence of compressive strength was bioglass＞α-CS＞β-CS＞β-TCP＞HA,the sequence of elasticity modulus was α-CS＜β-TCP＜HA＜β-CS＜bioglass.It was confirmed by X-ray,Micro-CT and histological analysis that the sequence of biodegradability was β-CS＞α-CS＞β-TCP＞bioglass＞HA.The histological observation showed no new bone formation in five scaffolds.A Ca-P layer was formed in the surface of bioglass,α-CS and β-CS,which suggested their in vivo bioactivity.After 16 weeks,the expression of BMP-2 and BMP-7 was found only in β-CS.Conclusion The porous calcium silicate scaffold,which was promising for bone tissue engineering,was with good in vivo bioactivity and biodegradability,without in vivo osteoinductivity.
