Objective To study the chemical constituents of Ganoderma resinaceum. Methods Chemical constituents were isolated and purified by silica gel column, Sephadex LH-20, and ODS column chromatography. The structures were identified by means of physicochemical and spectral data. Results From the CHCl3 part of the fruiting bodies of this material, eight compounds were isolated. Their structures were determined to be ergosterol (1), β-sitosterol (2), ganoderic acid E (3), ganoderic acid G (4), ganoderic acid C2 (5), ganoderic acid B (6), ganoderic acid A (7), and lucidenic acid A (8). Conclusion All the compounds were obtained from this fungus for the first time.

Objective To investigate the genetic diversity of five populations of cultivated Morinda officinalis in Guangdong Province using random amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD).Methods Sixty-four individuals in five populations of cultivated M.officinalis were analyzed by RAPD markers to determine the genetic variations among the populations.The data of genetic diversity were analyzed with Popgen32 software.Results The levels of genetic variation and patterns of population structure in M.officinalis were investigated using RAPD markers.Of the 100 primers screened,15 primers produced highly reproducible RAPD bands,using these primers,224 discernible DNA fragments were generated with 112(50.00%) polymorphic fragments,indicating considerable genetic variation at the species level.In contrast,there were relatively high levels of polymorphism at the population level with the percentage of polymorphic bands ranging from 37.05% to 53.13%,and the mean percentage of polymorphic loic(P=45.86%).Genetic variation among populations was detected based on Nei's genetic diversity analysis(0.175 6),Shannon's diversity index(0.287 6) for every population with Shannon's index 0.103 3—0.236 2 and Nei's indexes 0.074 5—0.154 0.Conclusion There is a little genetic differentiation among populations of cultivated M.officinalis and result in different cultivated types,the genetic diversity with M.officinalis(POP2) is higher than that of other populations.It may be the main reason of the difference of cultivated M.officinalis quality.

Objective To discuss the effect of Xinxibao to rotavirus enteritis sufferers' humoral immunologic functions. Methods 260 cases rotavirus enteritis sufferers' immunoglobulin and its alexin were measured. Except conventional therapy, the treatment group plus the Xinxibao to cure, and observe two sufferer teams' clinical curative effect and the change of immunologic function. Results The acute stage sufferers' blood serum IgG, IgM, IgA, C3 were lower obviously, C4 didn't have obvious change, the activity ratio of the treatment group(81.6 % ) is obviously higher than the control group (63.5 % ). At the same time, the treatment group IgG, IgM, IgA, C3 rose obviously than before,C4 had no change. Conclusion The rotavirus enteritis sufferers' immunologic functions are disorder,Xinxibao is useful to shorten the treatment of the sufferers, and strengthen sufferers' immunologic functions in the restoration stage.

OBJECTIVETo establish chromatographic fingerprints of triterpenoid compounds in ganoderma RP-HPLC for the quality control of ganoderma.

METHODHPLC fingerprints were established. The chromatographic conditions were as follows: the separation was performed on a Diamonsil C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm), using a gradient elution with acetonitrile-water containing 0.8% perchloric acid as the mobile phases. The flow rate was 0.9 mL x min(-1), the detection wavelength was 254 nm and the temperature of column was at ambient temperature. The common patterns of HPTLC and HPLC fingerprints were separately obtained through "Chromafinger" solution software, and quality assessments were analyzed by similarity.

RESULTThe HPLC fingerprint pattern of G. lucidum consists of 18 peaks, among them 6 peaks were identified by chemical reference substances.

CONCLUSIONThis study provided theory and experimental data in order to comprehensively evaluate the quality of ganoderma.

In order to ensure the biosafety of the IFN-gamma antiviral activity assay, we used a replication-deficient VSV carrying GFP as an interferon sensitive indicator virus (VSVdeltaG*G). The antiviral activities of porcine IFN-gamma expressed in Escherichia coli and in baculovirus on MDBK cells were assessed. The results showed that the antiviral activity of porcine IFN-gamma expressed in baculovirus could reach 10(5) IU/mL, while the porcine IFN-gamma expressed in E. coli showed some antiviral activity (32 IU/mL) after refolding. The results of the VSVdeltaG*G-based antiviral assay were almost identical to that of the VSV*GFP-based assay, suggesting it is highly feasible to use VSVdeltaG*G as a substitute for VSV*GFP, making assays for IFN-gamma antiviral activity safer and more accurate.

OBJECTIVE: To study the working experience of COVID-19 care nurses. METHODS: Twenty two nurses taking care of COVID-19 patients were interviewed by means of descriptive phenomenology. All the data were transcribed and recorded, and then processed into WORD documents. The Colaizzi 7 footwork was used to classify, encode, establish nodes and extract themes based on Nvivo11.0 software. RESULTS: Two main themes were extracted: one is the positive feelings of nurses, including the sense of professional mission and pride, the sense of achievement and happiness, the improvement of self-worth and ability, the powerful support system and the power of role models; the other is the negative experience of nurses, including the worry and anxiety at work, the lack of experience and trust, the difficulty of work, and the inconvenience of isolating life. CONCLUSIONS s While fully affirming the work value of nurses, it is necessary for the society, hospitals and patients to give extensive and continuous support, care and respect to nurses, so as to stimulate their working enthusiasm and sense of professional achievement. Hospital managers need to implement all kinds of security work, meet the safety needs of nurses, pay attention to the physical and mental health of nurses, strengthen the training of nursing talents for critical and severe diseases and infectious diseases, improve the allocation of human resources, and enhance the ability of material allocation and reserve for major health events, so as to make adequate preparations for coping with public health events in the future.
