Panax notoginseng (BurK.) F.H.Chen is a traditional Chinese medicinal material with a time-honored history of cultivation.There are a series of problems,such as high pesticide residues,serious disease and pest,and continuous cropping obstacles in the process of the cultivation of notoginseng.Pollution-free cultivation is an effective strategy for the sustainable development of notoginseng industry.We herein summarized three points of the pollution-free cultivation of notoginseng in this review.The standard of lands suitable for the cultivation of notoginseng was established on the basis of the analysis of medicinal plants around global producing areas.The integrated measures of soil improvement were put forward by cfficient rotation and soil disinfection with new varieties breeding combined with the management of water,light and fertilization,and the safe and low-toxic methods of disease and pest control.Additionally,the mode of wild tending should be carried out when the marker-assisted breeding of new varieties was developed,and the platform of comprehensive disease and pest control was founded.Above-mentioned points can effectively perfect and optimize the pollution-free cultivation of notoginseng and promote sustainable development of notoginseng industry.

This study analyzed the pesticide residue and heavy metal contents in Panaxnotoginseng (Burk.) F.H.Chen to provide the basis for the quality criterion of pollution-freemedicinal materials and slices of notoginseng.We randomly collected 100 samples of notoginseng from farmer's markets,producing areas of notoginseng and internet markets.We entrusted the third-party authoritative testing institutions to detect 203 items of the pesticide residues and 4 items of heavy metals.According to relative standards of Japan,Korea,the United States and the European Union,we analyzed and summarized the data in this study.We confirmed the 25 species of pesticides with high operating frequency and detection rate and the limited amount index of 4 heavy metals.In conclusion,these results enriched the limited amount index of the pesticide residues and heavy metal contents based on the previous notoginseng standard system serving as the quality criterion of pollution-free notoginseng,which was applicative and operable.

Objective: To optimize the ion selective electrode method of measuring urinary fluorine in WS/T 30-1996. Methods: The volume of 5 mol/L NaOH solution was fixed to confect the TISAB buffer solution. The samples were prepared by mixing 5 ml urine and equal volume of TISAB solution. Fluorine electrode and calomel electrode was used to test. When the potential value changed less than ±0.5 mV in one minute, it could be recorded. The standard curve method was selected as a quantitive method. Results: The linear range of this method was 0.07~50.0 mg/L, E=238.96-57.50lgC, r=0.999 8. The LOD and LOQ were 0.02 mg/L and 0.07 mg/L (with 5 ml urine) , respectively. The RSD of intra -and inter-batch precision were 0.80%~2.82% and 2.17%~2.86%, respectively. The recovery rate was 102%~107%. The urine sample could be preserved stably for 14 days at room temperature, and for 30 days at 4 ℃ and -20 ℃. Conclusion In this method, the preparation process of TISAB buffer solution was simplified, and the linear range was expanded. It could meet the needs of occupational population detection.

Objective: To establish a method to determine fluorine ion in human urine by ion chromatography method. Methods: The samples were centrifuged, diluted and processed by C₁₈ solid-phase column, potassium hydroxide as mobile phase, gradient elution, separated by AS₁₅, and determined by anion conductivity detector. Results: The linear correlation coefficient of fluoride ion in the range of 0.02-10.00 mg/L was more than 0.999. The lowest detection limit of urinary fluoride was 0.06 mg/L (in 3 ml urine) . The recoveries of the method were 96.9%-99.5%, the inter batch precision range was 0.40%-2.89%. The intra batch precision was from 1.01 to 7.23%. Fluoride samples could be stored for 7 days at room temperature and 4 ℃, and be stored for 14 days at -20 ℃. Conclusion Determination of fluoride in urine by ion chromatography, the method could meet the requirement in GBZ/T 210.5-2008.

Objective: To analyze the results obtained from the proficiency testing program for determination of bovine blood lead and urinary cadmium, so as to evaluate the proficiency of the laboratories, and improve the detection and quality control capability of occapational health laboratory. Methods: Prepared 3 levels of lead samples with bovine blood as base material, taking Technical Norm of Primary Reference Material as Operating standard, 60, 80, 180 μg/L were used as the standard concentration. All samples were made for 200 bottles. Normal urine were used to prepared 3 levels of cadmium samples with 5.0, 7.0, 10.0 μg/L as standard concentration, then 3 level of samples were made for 200 bottles respectively. Blood lead and urinary cadmium samples were sent to each laboratory in the form of sample pairs. One-way ANOVA was used to investigate the homogeneity. The results of each laboratory were statistically analyzed by robust statistical method, and the detection ability of the laboratory was evaluated by the Z ratio score method. By consulting the test reports and original records of each participating laboratory, the reasons for the unsatisfactory results were analyzed. Results: The statistical F of the uniformity of blood lead 1.42, 1.37 and 2.85, F<3.13, P were 0.294, 0.314 and 0.059, respectively in 31 labs. There is no statistical significance in the difference of blood lead (P>0.05). And urine cadmium was less than the critical value (P>0.05). In all, 31 laboratories participated in the test of blood lead, and 28 loboratories paticipated in urine cadmium verification. The statistical F of the uniformity of urinary cadmium 1.90, 1.35 and 1.19, F<3.13. The homogeneity of the samples were in accordance with the requirements of proficiency testing program. The satisfactory rate of the results for blood lead was 84% (26/31) , and the satisfactory rate of urinary cadmium was 93% (26/28) . In the test of blood lead, 21 of the 31 laboratories were controlled by the standard material method. Totally, 20 of them get an satisfactory level, the rate was 95%. Conclusion Most of the laboratory test results were satisfactory, which showed that the detection capability for blood lead and urine cadmium was good. The main causes of unsatisfactory results were detection methods, tools of quality control ortraceability standards.
