Objective To establish the quality standard ofQizhu-Fuzheng Yin, and to conduct a preliminary study on its stability.Methods Corydalis tuber and licorice were identified by TLC. The content of astragaloside was determined by UPLC-ELSD. The initial stability was studied by accelerated test method. Results The spots on TLC plates were clear without interference in the blank reference. The response of astragaloside was linear in the ranges of 36.5-365.0 μg/ml (r2=0.999 2), and the average recovery was 102.8 %, and theRSD was 2.4%. After 1, 2, 3, 6 months tests, the average contents of 3 batches astragaloside were 61.6, 60.4, 60.6μg/ml.ConclusionQizhu-Fuzheng Yin was simple preparation, quality control and stability.

Objective To establish the quality control ofBaiduyin syrup.Methods The TLC was used to identity Radix paeoniae rubra, Radix Scutellariae. The quantitative determination of baicalin and buddleoside was completed by HPLC.Results The spots on TLC plates were distinct and high resolution. Compared with the negative samples, the contrast medicinal materials or control products showed that there were no spots of the same color in the corresponding position. The linear ranges of baicalin and buddleoside were 0.2179-2.1790 μg (r2=0.999 9), 0.1319-1.3190 μg (r2=0.999 7). TheRSD were 1.51% and 2.01%. Conclusions The established quality control method is simple, accurate and reproducible, which can be used for the quality control ofBaiduyin syrup.

Objective To establish the quality standard of Fufang-Shiwu-Zhixue powder. Methods The microscopical identification was adopted to analyze charred typha pollen and cuttlebone. TLC was used to identity rhubarb and radix notoginseng. UV-HPLC was used to determine the contents of notoginsenosides R1, ginsenosides Rg 1, ginsenosides Rb1.

In order to explore a dose distribution verification procedure of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and establish its evaluation criteria, we performed 35 two-dimensional (2D) patient-specific IMRT verifications over the year 2006. The percent of pixels passing gamma and the normalized agreement test (NAT) index were mainly used to represent the agreement between the measured and computed dose distributions with three criteria (2%/2 mm, 3%/3 mm and 5%/3 mm) as recommended in the literature. The results were that all cases passed through verifications with three criteria except that the NAT index of one case was beyond the limitation, and the three tolerance levels of 2%/2 mm, 3%/3 mm and 5%/3 mm produced similar clinical verification results but led to different percent of pixels passing gamma and NAT index. Our data showed that the percent of pixels passing gamma and the NAT index were complementary to evaluate future IMRT verifications as two significant metrics. Due to the influence of the noise and the trait of the software, we considered an IMRT plan as acceptable in case of the percent of pixels passing gamma >95% and the NAT index <5 with the 5%/3 mm criteria for IMRT patient-specific quality assurance (QA).

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and therapy of levofloxacin-induced prolonged Q-T interval in patients with multi-drug resistant tuberculosis ( MDR-TB) . Methods Clinical materials of 6 patients with MDR-TB who developed prolonged Q-T/QTc interval caused by levofloxacin therapy were analyzed. Those cases were collected from the Tuberculosis Prevention and Control of Wuhan City form April 2010 to August 2014. Results The proportion of patients with levofloxacin-induced prolonged Q-T interval was approximately 3.0%.The condition occurred 2-8 months after the administration. The initial value of QTc interval ranged from 397 ms to 439 ms, while the average was (410.17±14.62) ms.The value of QTc interval was extended to 470-486 ms after treatment of levofloxacin, while the average was (476.33±6.16) ms.The increase of QTc interval was 47-85 ms, while the average was ( 66 ± 11. 48 ) ms. None of them developed Tdp. Conclusion The application of high dosage and long treatment course of levofloxacin in patients with MDR-TB could result in the extension of the Q-T/QTc interval, which should arouse our serious attention. In order to detect the abnormal Q-T/QTc interval in early stage, electrolyte level examination as well as ECG examination should be considered as routine tests before initiation of treatment and during the follow-up treatment.

ATP(adenosine 5′-triphophate)is a kind of purine involved in neural transmission and regulation.With the in-depth studying about purine and pyrimidine receptor subfamilies,ATP and its receptor will become a variety of potential drug targets of disease control.The application of resonance energy transfer technology,systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment in vitro and small interfering RNA technology in vivo not only expand the perspective of purinergic signaling research,but also promote their progress in disease prevention and drug screening.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different flushing and scanning processing on optical density (A) responding and set up the clinic quality assurance protocol based on silver halide emulsions radiographic films.MethodsSetting different flushing temperature and choosing different batch's film and developer and fixer or fixer in the same batch with different analyzing dose were performed to analyze the effect on A value; The effect of light uniform,the stabilize work time and the noise of different scanning resolution were discussed.ResultsThe A value at the same dose level would enhance as the temperature increased;the responding curve of dose and A value with different batches of films varied a lot;the responding curve of dose and A value with different batches of films and developer and fixer solution had marked variations;the responding of dose and A with the same batches would show some low.The heterogeneity of the scanner would achieve 0.03 ; the A value of the same dose would gradually steady while the time ofscanning was more than 10 minutes:the affect of noise would increase as the dose and resolution ratio increased.ConclusionsThe best processing temperature is 29-31 ℃.Different batches of film couldn't be confounded.A new calibration must be obtained when the film dosimetry to evaluate dose distribution is used.A 5 - 10 min warm up for stabilize work and the best setting resolution/depth lever are 72 dpi/16 bit for scanning films are determined.

Objective To investigate effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on pharmacokinetics (PK) of cephradine (CED).Methods DM model was induced by iv.alloxan 60 mg·kg-1.A reversed phase HPLC internal standard method was developed for measurement of CED plasma concentration.After blood collection,rats were sacrificed to collect kidneys for calculating kidney index(KW/BW).DM and normal control (CTL) rats were randomly assigned to receive iv.or ig.CED at a dose of 180 or 90 mg·kg-1.The 3p97 program was used to calculate PK parameters.Results The developed HPLC method was validated to have high specificity,precision,recovery and good storage stability,and met requirements for PK study of CED.The CED in rats of both DM and CTL groups showed the iv.two-compartment PK and ig.one-compartment PK and followed the first-order kinetics.Following iv.dosing,a remarkably decreased t1/2β and MRT,increased CLt were evident in DM group as compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).After ig dosing,a significant decrease in t1/2k and t a remarkable increase in CLt and Cm=were observed for DM group as compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).The DM rats showed a trend of decreased t1/2ka vs CTL rats.There was no significant difference in the oral bioavailability between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).KW and KW/BW in DM group were increased remarkably compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The DM vs CTL results in faster absorption and elimination of CED in rats,but does not have significantly affect in oral bioavailability.The compensatory hypertrophy and hyperfunction of early-stage diabetic kidneys may constitute one of causes of quick elimination of CED in rats with DM.
