Objective: To develop a method to determine Astragaloside IV in spray-dry of Radix Astragali by HPLC-ELSD. Methods: ELSD was used to determine directly Astragaloside IV in spray-dry of Radix Astragali on Elite-OSD column, using CH 3CN-H 2O(36∶64) as a mobile phase. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min. The temperature of drift tube for ELSD was 105 ?C and the flow rate of N 2 was 2.84 ml/min. Results: The recovery of the added sample was 91.68% and RSD 1.64%. Soluble amylum was helpful for spray-dry but it can influence was determination of Astragaloside IV. Conclusion: The method is accurate and can be used in the determination of Astragaloside IV in spray-dry of Radix Astragali. Better adjuvant should be found.

Objective To observe the curative effect of repairing the distal foot skin and soft tissue defect by using flap.Methods We used nutrient artery flap and low external ankle to repair the foot distal skin soft tissue defect in 16 cases.Results The flap survived,necrosis happened in small skin edge part and distal skin flap of sural nerve nutrient artery flap in two cases,and the skin graft healing with dots after removed the necrotic tissue and changed dressing.16 cases were followed up for 3-16 months,2 cases of flap slightly bloated,1 case back to the hospital got thin skin flap repairing technique;14 cases of walking were as usual,2 lame cases,related to some tissue defect in patients with forefoot injury.The use of flap to repair the foot injury,could maximially recover the limb function,reduce the rate of the sick.Conclusion Skin flap is a kind of operation which is simple,with smaller cost for skin area,beautiful and effective to repair skin and soft tissue defect of foot.

This study aims to develop a method to detect bovine multi-cytokines based on flow cytometry. Previously we have prepared and screened monoclonal antibodies against bovine cytokines IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α, IP-10 and MCP-1. These bovine cytokine monoclonal antibodies were fluorescently labeled, and the combination of antibody and cell surface molecules were used to develop the method for detecting bovine multi-cytokines. Subsequently, the developed method was used to determine the cytokine expression profile of Mycobacterium bovis BCG infected bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro, and evaluate the cytokine expression level of peripheral blood CD4+ T cells of tuberculosis-positive cattle. The bovine multi-cytokine flow cytometry detection method can effectively determine the cytokine expression of BCG-infected bovine peripheral blood T lymphocytes. Among them, the expression levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α continue to increase after 40 hours of infection, while the expression levels of IP-10 and MCP-1 decreased. The combined detection of IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α on CD4+ T lymphocytes in peripheral blood of cattle can effectively distinguish tuberculosis-positive and tuberculosis-negative samples. This method may facilitate evaluating the level of cellular immune response after bovine pathogen infection and vaccine injection.
