OBJECTIVETo study eleven organophosphorus insecticides residuals in four kinds of Chinese crude drugs.

METHODThe organophosphorus insecticides were extracted with dichloromethane and cleaned-up with a mixture of Celite 545-activated carbon. The extracts were analyzed by gas chromatography equipped with a flame photometric detector (FPD).

RESULTAnalysis of fortified Chinese crude drug showed that the average recoveries ranged from 77.5% -112.3% at three different levels, the RSDs were below 10% (n = 4). Trace organophosphorous pesticide residues were found in samples of Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae and Flos Chrysanthemi.

CONCLUSIONA method was established for determination multi-residues in Rhizma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, Radix Curcumae, Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii and Flos Chrysanthemi. It provides a method for the risk assessment of organophosphorous pesticide in Chinese crude drugs.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effects of VSD combined with continual irrigation in treating the infection of limbs fracture after internal fixation.

METHODSFrom March 2010 to June 2015, 10 patients with infection of limbs fracture after internal fixation were treated with VSD combined with continual irrigation. There were 7 males and 3 females, aged from 11 to 58 years with an average of 34.4 years. Course of disease was from 1 to 8 months with an average of 4.8 months. Postoperative infection occurred in fractures of ulna and radius of 4 cases, tibiofibular fractures of 3 cases, calcaneal fractures of 2 cases, femoral fractures of 1 case. Eight infections were open fracture and 2 infections were close fracture. In additon to above treatment, antibiotics, dressing changing or skingrafting were used in the patients. Informations of wound surface healing, change dressings, original infection focus were observed.

RESULTSAll infections got control, the wound healing after change dressings or skingrafting, and no complications such as osteomyelitis were found. The mean treatment time was 38.4 days(ranged, 29 to 45 days) and replacement times was 2.2 times(ranged, 1 to 4 times). All patients were followed up, no recurrent infections were found at 1 year after fracture healing.

CONCLUSIONSVSD combined with continual irrigation can effectively decrease the incidence of complications and promote the wound growth, healing and considerably shorten the healing time. It is an effective method for the treatment of infection of limbs fracture after internal fixation.

Callicarpa nudiflora,which is a big brand of Li nationality medicine with Hainan characteristics,has the effects of dissolving stasis,hemostasis,anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. At present,there is a lack of information about the reference genome of C. nudiflora. The study of the genome size,heterozygosity rate and characteristics of SSR of C. nudiflora,can provide an effective basis for the formulation of the whole genome de novo sequencing strategy and development of SSR molecular markers of C. nudiflora. To realize this purpose,high throughput sequencing platform Illumina Hiseq was used to sequence the genome structure of C. nudiflora and K-mer analysis was applied to estimate genome size,repeat sequences and heterozygosity rate. Simple-sequence repeat( SSR) loci that are suitable as markers were identified by MISA software. The results showed the estimated genome size of C. nudiflora was 822. 43 Mb,with a 0. 85% heterozygosity rate and 71. 67% repeats,and the GC content of genome was about 49. 20%. Therefore,C. nudiflora belongs to a complex genome with high heterozygosity and repetition. SSR molecular genetic markers were analyzed in the genome sequence,and a total of 206 049 SSRs were identified,among which mono-nucleotide,di-nucleotide and tri-nucleotide repetitive motifs summed up to 198 993,accounting for 96. 57% of the total SSRs. Among the 2-6 nucleotide repeats,AT/AT,AAT/ATT,AGCC/CTGG,AAAAT/ATTTT and AGATAT/ATATCT have the largest number,respectively. This report represents the first genome-wide characterization of C. nudiflora,and provides a reference for the construction of the library for the fine sequencing of the genome,and a molecular basis for the development of SSR molecular markers as well as for the protection and utilization of gene resources.
