A rapid and sensitive method based on biotin-avidin mediated competitive enzyme-linked immu nosorbent assay(BA-ELISA) was established for the determination of ketamine.The optimal concentration of coated antigen and anti-ketamine monoclonal antibody were found to be 2.0 and 10.2 mg/L.The concentra tions of biotinylated goat anti-mouse IgG(Biotin-IgG) and streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase(SA-HRP) were optimized and the optimum results were found to be 0.29 and 1.0 mg/L, respectively.The linear range of the presented method was from 0.1 to 1000 μg/L, and the limit of detection was found to be 0.03 μg/L.The recoveries of ketamine spiked in human serum and urine were between 94% and 102%.Comparing the result of traditional ELISA, the present BA-ELISA method had a lower detection limit for ketamine.The experimental results indicated that the present BA-ELISA method was specific and sensitive.

Objective To study the effect of bird's nest nursing on the vital signs,gastroenteric function,body weight and growth of premature infants.Methods 456 cases of premature infants were divided into the warm box group and the bird's nest group randomly according to odd and even number of birth,namely 228 cases in each group.The warm box group adopted routine nursing care.The bird's nest group adopted routine nursing care and bird's nest nursing in the mean time,namely the bird's nest wag put into the warm box,the premature infants slept in the pre-heated bird's nest.The condition of the two groups Was compared.Results On the first day of birth,there were no statistical difference(P>0.05)between the two groups in respiration,heart rate,milk amount and body weight.On the seventh and fourteenth day,respiration and heart rate were stable and milk amount and body weight increased rapidly in bird's nest group.There Was statistical difference(P<0.05)between the two groups.In bird's nest group,the premature had long sleeping time and body temperature-fluctuation was reduced.There was statistical differencere(P<0.01)between the two groups.Conclusions After the bird's nest was used in premature care,diseases were recovered rapidly,hospitalization days were shortened and it was beneficial to the development of intelligence and body and mind of the premature infants.

Carotenoids play an important role in regulating the hydrogen production of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. The carotenoids of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. grown in acetate medium were extracted by using acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) solvent and were separated by using thin-layer chromatography on silica-gel plate. The qualitative and quantitative of the carotenoids were analyzed by spectrometry. The results showed that the carotenoids were completely extracted three times with acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) in two hours. The ultrasonication had little effect on yield of carotenoids. The yield of carotenoids was 2.81mg/g wet cell. There were 4 spots on the silica-gel plate in the order of yellow, red, light red and light yellow. Yellow spot and red spot were the dominant composition of carotenoid in Rhodobacter sp. The spectrometry data showed that the yellow and red component might be the spheroidene and spirilloanthin respectively.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of four traditional Chinese medicines distributed along lung meridian, namely Ephedrae Hebra, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Scutellariae Radix and Mori Cortex, on TLR2 and NF-κB expressions in mice with lung heat syndrome, in order to study the intervention effect of the four traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) on the lung heat syndrome.
METHODOne hundred KM mice were randomly divided into the normal control group, the model group, the Ephedrae Hebra group, the Zingiberis Rhizoma group, the Scutellariae Radix group and the Mori Cortex group (20, 10 g x kg(-1)), nasally dripped with streptococcus pneumoniae to establish the mouse lung heat syndrome model, and then administered with different TCMs. The expressions of TLR2, NF-κB p65 proteins in lung tissues were analyzed by the immunohistochemical method. The expressions of TLR2, NF-κB p65 mRNA were measured by real time PCR.
RESULTCompared with the normal control group, the expressions of TLR2 and NF-κB p65 proteins in lung tissues in the model group were higher (P < 0.01), and the expressions of TLR2 and NF-κB p65 mRNA in lung tissues were up-regulated (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, Ephedrae Hebra high and low dose groups, the Zingiberis Rhizoma low dose group and the Scutellariae Radix high dose group showed decreased expression of TLR2 protein (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01); Ephedrae Hebra high and low dose groups, the Zingiberis Rhizoma low dose group, Scutellariae Radix high and low dose groups and Mori Cortex high and low dose groups showed reduced expression of NF-κB p65 protein (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Ephedrae Hebra high and low dose groups, Zingiberis Rhizoma high and low dose groups, Scutellariae Radix high dose group and Mori Cortex high dose group showed down-regulated expression of TLR2 mRNA (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONEphedrae Hebra, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Scutellariae Radix and Mori Cortex can induce the TLR2/NF-κB inflammatory signal pathways by down-regulating the expressions of TLR2 and NF-κB p65 in protein and mRNA, so as to alleviate the lung tissue injury in mice with lung heat syndrome.

AIM: To explore the effect of physcion (P) on the level of IL-1? and expression of ICAM-1 and caspase-3 during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS: The 91 healthy adult SD rats were selected, and were randomly divided into normal group, sham-operated group, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (model), low-dose physcion (PLD) and high-dose physcion (PHD) treatment group. The level of IL-1? was detected by radioimmunoassay. The expression of ICAM-1 and caspase-3 was detected by immunohistochemistry. The changes of tissue pathology were also investigated. RESULTS: The level of IL-1? reached the peak at 6 h after ischemia-reperfusion (IR). The protein expression of ICAM-1 and caspase-3 reached the peak at 24 h after IR. The level of IL-1? and the protein expression of ICAM-1 and caspase-3 in PHD group decreased obviously compared with those in model group (P

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of extracts from ginseng, notoginseng and chuanxiong (Ext) on the angiotensin II induced aging of human umbilical endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro.
METHODSCultured HUVECs were divided into 5 groups, the blank control group (A), the model group (B), and the three intervening groups (C, D and E). Except those in Group A, all cells were induced into aging model cells by Ang II in a final concentration of 10(-6) mol/L, and to the three intervening groups, corresponding treatments with low dose Ext (C), high dose Ext (D) and valsartan (E) were accessed. Changes of aging in HUVECs were observed by SA-beta-gal staining; cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry; contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells was measured by laser confocal microscopy; levels of nitric oxide (NO) and anti-superoxide anion in culture medium were examined by nitrate reductase method; and the protein expression of NAD (P) H oxidase p47phox, as well as the angiotensin type 1 and 2 receptor (AT1 R, AT2R) were detected by Western blot.
RESULTSCompared with Group A, in Group B, the positive beta-gal stained HUVECs increased and stagnated at G0-G1 phase, with the fluorescence intensity of ROS evidently enhanced; in the culture medium content of NO and anti-superoxide anion were lowered, and protein expression of p47phox and AT1 R up-regulated. While these aging figures were improved in Group C and D. After intervention with high or low dose of Ext, beta-gal stained HUVECs decreased showing less cells in G0-G1 phase and more cells in G2-M phase, the fluorescence intensity of ROS reduced, contents of NO and anti-superoxide anion increased, and the protein expression of p47phox and AT1 R down-regulated.
CONCLUSIONExt could delay the aging of HUVECs induced by angiotensin II, it is possibly by way of down-regulating the expression of NAD (P) H oxidase subunit-p47phox through AT1 R, and further reducing the superoxide anion production.

Chronic viral hepatitis B (CHB) is a major infectious disease greatly harmful to the health of Chinese people. Chinese medicine has its speciality and advantages in treating it depending syndrome-differentiation. The objectified researches regarding Chinese medical syndromes in CHB heretofore were reviewed in this article. Moreover, aiming at existing problems and taking the angle of "disease-syndrome combining" study, authors put forward research approach, and approaches for studying systemic biology based biological basis of Chinese medical syndrome in hepatitis B with reductionism and holism, cybernetics and system theories in combination.
