Oxygen-carrying substances based on poly-placental hemoglobin were put into freeze-drying. Sucrose was chosen to inhibit the methmoglobin(MetHb) formation. MetHb content, ultravioletes(UV) spectrum, Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were monitored during freeze-drying. As a result, when the mass ratio of sucrose to protein was above 0.5, MetHb formation was under control;the characteristic absorption of UV spectrum, SDS-PAGE and HPLC showed no visible change. Freeze-dried solids were kept under room temperature and refrigerator for 3 months. As a result, MetHb formation depended upon storage temperature and the mass ratio of sucrose to protein. For group C in which the mass ratio of sucrose to protein was 1.0; there is no marked change in MetHb content, UV spectrum, SDS-PAGE and HPLC after 3 months.

This study was intended to establish a method for preparation of purified and viral-inactivated placenta hemoglobin. The optimum preparative condition resulted in the up-grading of purity,recovery and so on. A quality control was also established for the purification of hemoglobin. Compared to present purification methods, this method is easy to operate, needs low investment and running cost, and has the advantage of simultaneous operation for purification and viral-inactivation. The resulted hemoglobin had high purity and recovery, and the physicochemical property measured up to that in international reports. So this method is suitable for preparing purified and viral-inactivated hemoglobin on an adequate scale, and is useful for further development of blood substitutes.

OBJECTIVETo study the characteristics of male sterility of Bupleurum chinense and further explore the developmental period and reason of abortion for the male sterile plants.
METHODThe morphological characteristics of B. chinense male sterile and normal plants were investigated and compared. The anther development process and pollen viability of two types of plants were examined by microscopic assay.
RESULT AND CONCLUSIONThe shapes and sizes of anther and filament were different between the male sterile and the normal plants. For the male sterile plant's, the filament size was no more than 1/2 of that of normal plants and the anthers were shriveled, failed to dehisce and pollinate naturally, and the pollen grains in the anthers had no vitality. Other morphological characteristics were similar between two types of plants. The main reason leading to male sterility of B. chinense was the abnormal development of tapetum cells with two circumstances. The one is that the tapetum cells degraded early during the period of microsporocyte phase to tetrad phase and the other is that the tapetum cells proliferated with delayed degradation in the tetrad to uninucleate phase.
