This study was aimed to establish X-ray diffraction (XRD) Fourier fingerprint of mineral Chinese medicine Actinolitum, in order to provide a new method for evaluating the quality of Actinolitum. Actinolitum samples were analyzed by the technology of powder XRD. And the XRD Fourier fingerprint was determined. Accord to the fingerprints and the intensity of each characteristic peak in XRD patterns of Actinolitum, the similarity of different samples were calculated using the law of cosines and the correlation coefficient method. Systematic cluster analysis was also used for the data. The results showed that XRD patterns of 10 certified products, 3 doping products and 2 counterfeits of Actinolitum were obtained. The geometric and topological characteristics of 10 certified products were consistent. XRD fingerprint of Actinolitum from 10 certified products had 18 common characteristic peaks. The similarity analysis showed that the similarity of XRD patterns common peak of certified products were higher among 15 samples (> 0.98). The similarity of doping products was slightly lower (0.85-0.97). And the counterfeits had the lowest similarity (< 0.2). These three had significant differences which can be distinguished. The results of cluster analysis were consistent with the similarity analysis results. It was concluded that XRD fingerprint had good specificity and feasible. It was accurate and reliable, which can be used to distinguish and evaluate Actinolitum.

Objective:To further confirm the anti-endotoxin active parts of Lidanpaidu prescription through observing the anti-en-dotoxin intensity based on a half-in vivo method. Methods:The extracting solution of Lidanpaidu prescription was extracted by the sol-vents with different polarity to obtain the active part. The anti-endotoxin activity of the samples was determined by using the Azo color matrix method, and the amount of inactivated endotoxin was compared among the various extraction parts with different dosages. Re-sults:Compared with that of the control group, the amount of inactivated endotoxin by the rat plasma in each administration group was all higher, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05). The rat plasma of the whole prescription administration groups all showed endotoxin inactivation, while the differences among the groups with various dosages were without statistical significance( P>0. 05). The rat plasma of the water soluble fraction administration groups also showed endotoxin inactivation, and the difference be-tween the high dosage group and the low dosage group was statistically significant (P<0. 05). Conclusion:The results of the half-in vivo method showed the consistent anti-endotoxin effect of the whole prescription and the water soluble fraction, furthermore, the dose-effect relationship is preliminarily appeared, suggesting that the water soluble fraction remains the effective components of the whole prescription to a great extent. Therefore, the water soluble fraction can be further confirmed as the active anti-endotoxin part of Lidan-paidu prescription.

Compared with that for botanical drugs and animal-derived drugs, the identification study for mineral traditional Chi-nese medicines is relatively weak. The traditional identification methods can’ t meet the quality control requirements of mineral tradi-tional Chinese medicines, and the application of modern analysis techniques are needed urgently in the systematic research of mineral traditional Chinese medicines. In the paper, the identification of traditional methods combined with some modern analysis techniques such as X-ray diffraction, near infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy for mineral traditional Chinese medicines was summarized and analyzed to provide basic idea and methods for the systematic identification construction of mineral traditional Chinese medicines.
