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.

Lymphokine-osteoclast activating factor(OAF) is a potent mediator of bone resorption. PGs which mediate bone resorption are necessary for OAF. It has been reported that mononuclear is an important factor in bone resorption; and circulating monocytes may be osteoclast precursors,but it is not clear at present. We used CT and PTH which are potent physiological calcium-regulator hormones to stimulated mono-nuclear to study it's role for bone resorption. Mononuclear was isolated from normal human peripheral blood by Ficoll-Hypaque. After cultured in C02 incubator at 37℃ for 24h. 0.05g/L PTH and 100U/L CT were added and incubated in the same condation. After 2.5min, 5min, 10min, and 15min cAMP was measured by RIA. In the sam way PGE was determined. Our experiment exhibited that circulating mononuclear responds to CT and PTH with an increase in cAMP firstly, and enhances PGE production by CT and PTH stimulated mononuclear secondly. The results suggest that mononuclear participated in the regulation of bone resorption by PGE, OAF and other factor.

AIM: To optimize the extraction process for coumarins in Angelica Dahurica by supercritical CO 2 as guided by the contents of oxyimperatorin, imperatorin and the total coumarins in the extract. METHODS: HPLC was applied to determine the contents of oxyimperatorin and imperatorin. orthogonal design was applied to optimize SFE process. Range and variance analysis as well as stepwise nonlinear regression analysis were applied to deal with experimental results. RESULTS: The optimum process was established as following: 21MPa as extracting pressure, 50℃ as extracting temperature, 3.5h as extracting time, 20 mesh as pulverized degree and 6.5MPa as separating pressure. The relative error between experimental data and calculated value was less than 5%. CONCLUSION: Changes in extracting pressure, temperature, time, pulverized degree would affect the extracting results remarkably. Some factors had interactions on the extraction of coumarins in Angelica Dahurica . Regression equation was reasonable and could forecast results precisely.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of evidence-based nursing on the health behavior of elderly hypertensive patients in the community.Methods 187 elderly hypertensive patients who were hospitalized in December 2015 and met the inclusive criteria were divided into observation group (n=93) and control group (n=94).The observation group received evidence-based nursing according to the evidence-based medical system evaluation while the control group was given regular nursing both for 6 months.The clinical efficacy of two nursing modes was observed and the differences between pre-intervention and pose-intervention and groups were recorded and analyzed with a self-designed questionnaire, drug compliance questionnaire and health behavior scale.Results In the observation group, the blood pressure was effectively controlled or reduced, treatment compliance was significantly increased and body mass index (BMI) was within the ideal range 6 months later.Scores of unhealthy behaviors such as those in living habits and mental stress were lower than those in the control group, which showed significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in activity participation between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Evidence-based nursing intervention can effectively control the hypertension, improve the treatment compliance of the community elderly hypertension patients and help lead them to a more positive and healthier life style.
