This study was aimed to quickly and accurately identify different origins and categories of commodity edible bird’s nest (EBN) using DNA barcoding technique, in order to reveal its genetic differences. The total genomic DNA was isolated from the EBN samples. And Cytb gene sequences were amplified and sequenced by PCR. Then, 32 sequences were aligned and analyzed with DNAStar and MEGA 6.0 software. NJ phylogenetic tree was constructed. The nearest distance was calculated. The results showed that the original species of 32 samples of EBN were identified.Aerodramus fuciphagus was the genetic origin of 23 white nest samples. AndAerodramus fuciphagus germaniwas the genetic origin of the other 8 samples. The origin of black nest sample wasAerodramus maximusorAerodramus maximus lowi. It was concluded that the genetic origin of different EBN categories was variant. The identification of EBN’s origin species with Cytb sequence was quick and accurate.

Objective To optimize the soaking treatment method for increasing the germination of Amomum villosum Lour.(AVL) seeds.Methods Nine groups were set up: the control group(without soaking treatment),treatment group 1(soaking AVL seeds with naphthylacetic acid 15 mg/mL for 8 hours),treatment group 2(soaking with gibberellin 100 mg/L for 30 hours) and treatment groups 3~8(soaking with clean water for 8,20,30,40,45 and 50 hours respectively).The sowing amount was 100 grains in each group for each time,and the seeds were planted in the outdoor pot at a planting space of 4cm?4cm.Results Naphthylacetic acid had an obvious inhibition on the germination of AVL seeds and delayed the shooting.Gibberellin promoted the germination and shooting of the seeds.Soaking with clean water for 8 hours had no obvious effect on the seed germination,but soaking for 20~50 hours increased the seed germination to various degrees,in particular soaking for 30~50 hours.Conclusion Soaking with gibberellin or clean water can increase the germination of AVL seeds.This method is simple and practical and economic,and is worth of extensively applying in the sowing and breeding of AVL seeds.

Objective To study the effect of different treatment methods on seed germination of wild Morinda officinalis How(MOH),which will provide evidence for breeding new cultivars of MOH.Methods We observed the morphological feature,thousand-seed weight and hygroscopicity of wild MOH,and studied the effect of different treatment methods on the germination rate,germination vigor,and germination index of the seeds.Results The thousand-seed weight was 38.03 g and the seed coat had good hygroscopicity.Stripping seed coat,acid etching with sulfuric acid,and the combined treatment of stripping seed coat with exogenous hormones of gibberellin(GA) and 6-benzyladenine(6-BA) had an effect on increasing germination rate,and the germination rate arrived 88.89% after the combined treatment of stripping seed coat with 4 mg/L 6-BA.Conclusion The germination inhibitors containing in the seed coat mainly contribute to the difficulty of the germination of MOH,and the germination inhibitors containing in the seed also have some influences on the germination.

Objective: To study the technological parameters of the enrichment purification process of Baohe Pills with macroporous resin. Methods: With the enriched degree of hesperidin of Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae of Baohe Pills as a marker, the optimum technological parameters of the enrichment process were studied. Results: The optimum process is that 5mL of the extract of BaoHe Pills (500mg/mL) was adsorbed for 30min with a column of macroporous resin (R15mm?H100mm) and the resin was washed with 100mL of distilled water, then the hesperidin was eluted from the macroporous resin with 100mL of 50% ethanol. Conclusion: The elutive rate of hesperidin was above 95% by means of the macroporous resin. So this process enriching the active components of Baohe Pills is feasible.

Objective To study the influences of polysacch arides(PS)from Radix Codonopsis on immune function and hematopoiesis in mice.Methods Several experiments have been condu cted for detecting delayed type hypersensitivity(DTH),hemolysin antibody concentration,endogenous spleen colony,3 H-TdRpermeate nuleated cells in bon e marrow.Results By oral administration,PS from Radix Codonopsis can promote the humoral immunity and PS at a small dosage en-hance the cellular immunity.PS from Radix Codonopsis can also elevate the hemoglobin cont ent of the hemolysis -induced blood -deficiency mice and increase the formation of endogenous spleen c olony,but has less effect on DNA synt hesis in the bone marrowof blood -deficiency mic e caused by 60 Co -?ray.Conclusion PS from Radix Codonopsis can enhance the im-mune function and improve the compen satory hematopoiesis of spleen and t heir mechanisms need to be further studied.

Objective To establish a method for the determination of berberine and salvianolic acid B in Fuyankang En- ema.Methods The chromatograhie separation was performed on a Kromasil C_(18) column (250 mm?4.6 mm,5?m) with a gradient elution of acetonitrile-0.04 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution containing 0.1% phosphoric acid.The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and column temperature was set at 30℃.The detection wavelength was 230 nm.Results There was a good linearity in the range of 0.0924~2.3100?g (r=0.999 9) for berbeine,and 0.1000~2.5000?g (r=0.999 9) for salvianolic acid B.The average recoveries of berberine at high,middle and low concentra- tions were 100.40 %,99.51% and 99.15 % respectively with RSD being 0.59 %,0.67 %and 1.02 % (n=3) re- spectively.The average recoveries for salvianolic acid B were 101.52 %,99.32 % and 98.68 % respectively with RSD being 0.60 %,0.92 % and 1.00 % (n=3),respectively.Conclusions This method is convenient,specific and re- producible for the determination of berbeine and salvianolic acid B in Fuyankang Enema by HPLC.
