Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2016;47(4):585-590
Objective: To determine the prescription technology of gastrodin starch microsphere and investigate its nasal mucoadhesion and in vitro release characteristics. Methods: Gastrodin starch microspheres were prepared by compound emulsion crosslinking method. According to the particle diameter, drug loading efficiency (DLE), and entrapment efficiency (EE), the best prescription technology was selected by using single-factor investigation and uniform design. Using toad palate mucosa as model and average residence time as indicator, mucoadhesion of gastrodin starch microsphere was evaluated. Using gastrodin API as a control, paddle method was applied to in vitro release test of gastrodin starch microspheres. The content of gastrodin was determined to calculate the cumulative release percentage. In addition, the curve of drug release in vitro was fitted with different release model to analyze the in vitro release characteristics of gastrodin starch microsphere in nasal cavity, synthetically. Results: The optimum prescription and preparation technology of gastrodin starch microsphere were as follows: gastrodin 2.0 g, starch 4.5 g, liquid paraffin 100.0 mL, Span80 3.5 g, ECH 5.1 mL, preparation temperature 40℃, and rotational speed 1000 r/min. The particle diameter of gastrodin starch microsphere was (47.69±1.92) μm, the DLE and EE of microsphere were (9.78±0.70)% and (35.72±3.28)%, respectively. It was about (176.92±23.25) s that in adhesive powder resided in nasal cavity, which translated into human nasal residence time was just 20-30 min, while the average residence time of gastrodin starch microspheres was extended to (944.33±68.29) s, translated into human nasal residence time was about 3 h. The cumulated release percent of gastrodin starch microspheres was more than 90% in 3 h. Compared with other in vitro release models, Weibull model was the fittest model to gastrodin starch microspheres, the t50 of gastrodin starch microspheres was 40.08 min, and t90 was 245.73 min. Conclusion: Gastrodin starch microspheres prepared with optimum prescription technology have uniform particle diameter, high DLE and EE. Microspheres have good mucoadhesion and sustained release, ensure that gastrodin release gently and completely during the nasal retention period.

Journal of Tropical Medicine 2019;19(11):1336-
Abstract:Objective To establish a sensitive,rapid and convenient method for the detection of dengue antigen and assist clinical diagnosis of dengue. Methods In this paper,we developed a rapid detection method for dengue antigen based on microfluidic immune magnetic beads. Solidwork software was used to design microfluidic chip,which was prepared by mechanical processing and chemical sealing. Immunomagnetic beads of dengue antibody were prepared by chemical coupling reaction. Using HRP ⁃TMB ⁃H2O2 as color system,dengue NS1 antigen was detected on microfluidic chip carrier by double antibody sandwich method. Finally,57 clinical samples were tested by the novel method and traditional ELISA kit,and the accuracy of the method was analyzed,and the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods were compared. Results 20 minutes was needed to detect dengue NS1 antigen by using the novel ELISA method,and the reaction system only needed 10 μg beads and 10 μL samples. In the verification experiment,the method could distinguish the negative from the positive obviously. The positive sample had color rendering,while the negative and blank samples had no color rendering. In terms of detection performance,the coincidence rate between the new ELISA method and the traditional ELISA method reached 100%. Conclusion The novel ELISA detection platform had the advantages of simple,rapid,reagent and sample saving,high sensitivity,good stability and high accuracy,and could be used for the detection of dengue antigen.

Objective To investigate the effect of oral rehydration on hemedynamies and mierocirculatory perfusion in dogs with fatal hemorrhagic shock.Methods Twenty male Beagle dogs 16-20 months old weighing 8-12 ks were subjected to a loss of 40% of the total blood volume,then divided into 3 groups:no rehydration group (group NR,n=8),oral rehydration group(group OR,n=6)and intravenous rehydration group(group IR,n=6).Group NR received no treatment within 24 h after blood-letting.Group IR and OR were given glucose-electrolyte solution (GES) either by gastric tube or by intravenous infusion 3 times volume of the blood loss immediately after the establishment of the model.Then the lactated Ringer's solution,glucose saline and compound amino acid(2 times volume of the blood loss)were started to be given to supplement the physiological consumption from 24 h after blood-letting in each group.The MAP,cardiac index(CI),systemic vascular resistance (SVR),dp/dtmax,and intestinal mucoflal blood flow (IMBF) were determined before blood-letting(T0,baseline) and 2 h (T1),4 h(T2),8 h(T3),24 h(T4),48 h(T5) and 72 h(T6)after blood-letting.The fatality rate within 72 h after blood-letting and urinary output were calculated.Results The fatality rates were 63%,33%and O in group NR, OR and IR respectively, which showed significant difference between the groups (P < 0.05).Compared with the baseline values at To, MAP, CI and dp/dtmax were significantly decreased at T1-6, in group NR,at T1-5 in group OR and at T1-4 in group IR, and SVR was significantly increased, while IMBF decreased at each time point after blood-letting in the three groups ( P <0.05), but no significant change was found in MAP, CI and dp/dtmax at T6 in group IR and OR (P>0.05). MAP, CI, dp/dtmax , IMBF and urinary output were significantly higher, while SVR was significantly lower in group OR and IR than in group NR ( P < 0.05). MAP, CI,dp/dtmax, IMBF and urinary output were signiflcandy lower, while SVR was significantly higher in group OR than in group IR ( P < 0. 05). Conclusion Oral administration of GES 3 times volume of the blood loss within 24 h after fatal hemorrhagic shock can obviously improve the hemodynamics and microcirculatory perfusion, then improve the survival state and have obvious resuscitation efficacy.
