Objective To optimize the ethanol extraction technology ofLichong ShengsuiDecoction.Methods An L9(34) orthogonal test was used in the study. The extraction rates of calycosin glycoside, icariin, baohuosideⅠ, ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Re, ginsenoside Rb1, astragaloside, and ginsenoside Rd were set as indexes. The influence of ethanol concentration, extraction time, extraction temperature, and amount of ethanol on the yield of Lichong ShengsuiDecoction were detected by comprehensive scoring method.Results The optimal ethanol extraction technology forLichong ShengsuiDecoction was soaking for 2 h with ten times of 60% ethanol and then reflux extracting for two times; extraction time was 1.5 h each time at 80℃.ConclusionThe optimal extraction technology is efficient, stable and feasible, which can provides data for the further study ofLichong ShengsuiDecoction.

In order to study genetic variation diversity of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) strains in Shanxi,the genomic sequences of nine PCV2 strains including SXQX,SXCZ,SXTY2,SXJC,SXJX,SXLL,SXPY,SXPG and SXXY recently isolated from some areas of Shanxi from 2013 to 2016,was cloned,sequenced and received by GenBank.The amplified PCV2 genomic sequences,ORF2 sequences and Cap protein amino acid of these nine strains were analysed and compared with those of published 28 PCV2 strains by DNAStar,drawing phylogenetic tree.The results showed that the genomic sequences of SXJX,SXJC and SXXY PCV2 strains were 1 768 bp,and the others were 1 767 bp,which accounted for 33％ and 67％,respectively.The homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains were 94.7％-99.8％,the homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains with the 28 isolates from different regions of the world PCV strain were 93.9％-99.9％,and the homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains with the domestic vaccine strains were 95.1％-99.8％.The phylogenetic analysed that SXJX,SXJC and SXXY belonged to genotype PCV-2D,SXLL,SXPY and SXCZ belonged to genotype PCV-1C,and SXTY14,SXPG and SXQX belonged to genotype PCV-1A/1B.Thus it proved that the epidemic strain of PCV2 was mainly PCV-2b in Shanxi.The homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains were 90.0％-100.0％ and 87.1 ％-100.0％ respectively,the homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains with the 28 isolates from different regions of the world PCV strain were 87.6％-100.0％ and 84.1％-100.0％ respectively,and the homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains with the domestic vaccine strains were 91.0％-100.0％ and 89.3％-100.0％ respectively.The Cap amino acids of SXQX,SXJX,SXTY14,SXPG,SXJC and SXXY PCV2 were 233,ORF2 of SXQX,SXTY14 and SXPG located at 1 033-1 734 bp,ORF2 of SXXY,SXJX and SXJC located at 1 033-1 734 bp,and the Cap amino acids of SXCZ,SXLL and SXPY PCV2 were 234,ORF2 of them located at 1 030-1 734 bp,in addition,the positions of 1 030-1 734 bp were more three bases TCA than other ORF2 genome sequence of 1 767 bp,resulting in increasing a K (Lys) of amino acid sequencein at the 234 position.Also Cap protein of 9 PCV2 strains showed more amino acid variation in addition to the only high-ly conserved glycosylation sites (NYS) (pp.143-145 amino acid).It provided theoretical basis for the PCV2 immune prevention of research in Shanxi,and the data of basic theory of molecular pathogenesis of PCV2.

Objective To imvestigate the application value of combined newborn deafness genetic and hearing screening in the prevention of deafness in poor families in Ningxia.Methods Heel blood was collected from 3 023 neonates in Guyuan City,and 15 loci of 4 deafness genes were detected by gene chip technology of hereditary deaf-ness.At the meantime,heaning was screened and followed-up in all newborns.Results Among the 3 023 neo-nates,123 were positive for deafness gene screening(4.07％,123/3 023),including 56 cases with GJB2 mutation(1.85％,56/3 023),46 cases with SLC26A4 mutation(1.52％,46/3 023),6 cases with GJB3 mutation(0.20％,6/3 023),14 cases with mtDNA12SrRNA(0.46％,14/3 023).The mutation detection rates of c.235delC and c.IVS7-2A＞G loci were 1.36％(41/3 023)and 0.93％(28/3 023)respectively,which were the main mutation types.A total of 98 cases were found in Hui nationality to carry deafness gene mutation,with a carrying rate of 4.26％(98/2 302).A total of 25 mutations were detected in the Han nationality(3.49％,25/715).The total mu-tation rate of four common deafness mutation genes between Hui and Han was not significantly different(P＞0.05).All 123 newborns with deafness gene mutation passed the hearing screening(100％).The hearing screening passing rate of 690 Han newborns with negative deafness gene screening results was 99.71％(688/690),and the hearing screening passing tate of 2 204 Hui newborns with negative deafness gene screening results was 99.86％(2 201/2 204).There was no significant difference in the failure rate of hearing screening between Hui and Han newborns with positive deafness gene screening(P＞0.05).All 3 023 neonates completed follow-up(100％).Five neonates failed to pass the hearing re-examination,and 3 neonates were diagnosed with hearing loss.The hearing follow-up of 123 neonates with positive deafness gene mutation showed normal hearing and language development.Conclusion GJB2:c.235delC and SLC26A4:c.IVS7-2A＞G are the main pathogenic gene mutations in the neonates of poor and registered households in Guyuan area.The mitochondrial 12SrRNA carrying rate in Han neonates is higher than that in Hui neonates.
