AIM: To establish an identification method of Fritillaria based on near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(NIRDRS). METHODS: Seven certified Fritillaria,i.e.,F.przewalskii Matim,F.cirrhosa D.Don,F.unibraacteate Hsiaaoet.K.C.Hsia,F.thunbergii Mig,F.pallidiflora,F.ussuriensis Matin and F.kupehensis Hsiaet K.C.Hsia,and three fake "Fritillaria",i.e.,F.thunbergii Varchekiugensis Hsiaet K.C.Hsia,Tulipa edulis and Iphigeniaindica were dried,grinded and sieved before their NIRDRS spectra were detected.Cluster analysis,convolution transform-visualization-similarity analysis were further employed to(identify) the NIRDRS of the ten herbal medicines. RESULTS: The zero-order NIRDRS spectra of the ten herbal medicines were too similar to be identified respectively.The cluster analysis helped differentiate the three fake "Fritillaria" from seven certified Fritillaria,but the identification between the certified Fritillaria remained dissatisfactory.The convolution transform-visualization-similarity analysis magnified and then quantified the minute differences between the certified Fritillaria,which significantly improved their identification. CONCLUSION: NIRDRS is a direct,non-destructive analytical method of solid samples.Coupled with information treatment techniques,DIRDRS provides a new identification method of crude traditional Chinese medicines.

CD,the concentration and pH of buffer are the major factors influencing the separation of terbutaline and it can be completely separated.

Objective:To ascertain the optimized ultrasonic condition for extraction of flavone from Radix Astragali by orthogonal design. Methods: The contents of calycosin-7-O-?-D -glucoside and formononetin were taken as the indices and were determined. The ultrasonic time (10 min, 20 min, and 30 min), concentrations of methanol (50%, 75% and 100%) and times of extraction (1, 2, and 3) were analyzed by orthogonal design; the best ultrasonic condition was ascertained and compared with those of soak extraction and Soxhlet extraction. Results: Ultrasonic with 100% methanol twice (20 minutes each time) was the optimized condition for extraction of flavone from Radix Astragali. The efficiency of ultrasonic extraction was better than those of soak extraction and Soxhlet extraction. Conclusion: Compared with other methods, the ultrasonic extraction of flavone from Radix Astragali is efficient, quick and simple.

The average recovery and RSD were 99.4 % and 2.0 % respectively(n=5).Concl usion The method is simple,rapid,stable and reliable,and can be used to determine diosgenin content in Jingangteng soft capsule.

Objective:To establish a method by combining microwave-assisted extraction(MAE),solid phase extraction(SPE)and high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)for determination of the mefenacet residues in rice.Methods:Acetone and acetontrile(37)were used as extraction solvent.Microwave-assisted extraction was used to extract mefenacet residues in the rice.The extracts were then cleaned up with a Florisil cartridge and then subjected to Hypersil C18 column(5 ?m,4.6 mm?200 mm),with acetonitrilewater(5050,V/V)solution as mobile phase and with a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min;the ultraviolet detection wavelength was at 217 nm.Results:Good linear correlation for mefenacet was found within a concentration range of 0.198-9.900 ?g/ml.The detection limit was 0.039 6 ?g/mL for mefenacet(S/N=2).The average recovery rate of rice hull and brown rice were 90.8%(RSD 1.8%)and 85.6%(RSD 2.5%),respectively.Conclusion:The present method is simple and rapid;it can be used for the determination of mefenacet residues in rice.

With the expansion of herbal medicine (HM) market, the issue on how to apply up-to-date analytical tools on qualitative analysis of HMs to assure their quality, safety and efficacy has been arousing great attention. Due to its inherent characteristics of accurate mass measurements and multiple stages analysis, the integrated strategy of liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) and ion trap mass spectrometry (IT-MS) is well-suited to be performed as qualitative analysis tool in this field. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview on the potential of this integrated strategy, including the review of general features of LC-IT-MS and LC-TOF-MS, the advantages of their combination, the common procedures for structure elucidation, the potential of LC-hybrid-IT-TOF/MS and also the summary and discussion of the applications of the integrated strategy for HM qualitative analysis (2006-2011). The advantages and future developments of LC coupled with IT and TOF-MS are highlighted.

Objective: To establish capillary zone electrophoresis method for determination of sildenafil citrate (Viagra) content in its troche. Methods： Using tetrandrine as internal standard(IS), the electrophoretic separation was achieved with 25 mmol/L borate (pH=7.89) running buffer. And a voltage of 14 kV was applied to the 40 cm×75 μm(i.d) capillary. The analytes were introduced into capillary by siphon (1 s) and determined with on-column monitoring at 214 nm. Results：The determination could be completed within 4 min and the minimum concentration of detection was 5 μg/ml.The analytical results of sildenafil citrate samples demonstrated a good linear relationship within the range of 24-480 μg/ml.The relative standard deviations (RSD) of intra-day was less than 1.58% and that of inter-day was less than 2.46%.The present recoveries were between 95%-105％. Conclusion：The CZE method is accurate, simple, rapid and reliable, so it can be applied to the determination of sildenafil citrate content.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of coiling-dragon warm needling atHuatuo jiaji points plus Chinese herbal fumigation in treating ankylosing spondylitis (AS).MethodEighty AS patients were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 40 cases each. The treatment group received coiling-dragon warm needling at Huatuo jiaji points plus Chinese herbal fumigation and the control group, oral administration of salicylazosulfapyridine (SASP). An investigation was made of the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), the patients’ overall assessment, the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), the total number of swollen joints, the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Measurement Index (BASMI) and laboratory inflammatory indices: erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), platelet (PLT) and C reactive protein (CRP).ResultThere was a statistically significant difference in the marked efficacy rate between the two groups (P<0.05). Clinical indices: disease activity index and functional index and laboratory indices: ESR, PLT and CRP improved somewhat inboth groups of patients after treatment (P<0.05). After two courses of treatment, the therapeutic effect was better in the treatment group and there was a statistically significant difference compared with the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionCoiling-dragon warm needling at Huatuo jiaji points plus Chinese herbal fumigation can effectively relieve the clinical symptoms and reduce inflammatory reactions in the active stage in AS patients. It is an effective way to treat AS.
