Chinese medicine talents are the foundation and guarantee for the development of TCM, and the first resource for the inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese medicine. Reforming the curriculum system and training mode of Chinese medicine, training Chinese medicine professional who are suitable for research and development of Chinese medicine, such as cultivation of Chinese medicine materials, quality detection, species identification and resource census, is the direction of further expansion and reformation of Chinese medicine education. In this article, on account of the characteristic of Chinese medicine professional courses, we will combine practice education mode with professional knowledge competition, to probe innovative mode of comprehensive ability training for Chinese medicine based on the combination of"Multi-mode and Multi-Ways". The new mode of Chinese medicine education is to provide reference for trainers of Chinese medicine.

Objective To investigate the optimal isolation and purification conditions of flavonoids in Gnaphlium affine Thunb. and the content of flavonoids in different parts of Gnaphlium affine Thunb. was measured. Methods The separation and purification abilities of D-101 macroporoue adsorbing resins for flavonoids in Gnaphlium affine Thunb. were studied with adorption and desorption as index. The static adsorption and dynamic adsorption methods were used to analyze the effects of static saturated adsorption, static elution rate, sample concentration, sample pH value, eluent concentration and amount of eluent. The flavonoids concentrations were determined with rutin as standard. Results The D-101 macroporous adsorption resin had good effect on the separation and purification of flavonoids from Gnaphlium affine Thunb.; The optimal conditions for purification were: sample concentration 1.0 mg/ml, sample pH=4, 60% ethanol as desorption solvent, washing flow 2 BV/h, with these parameters. With such condition, the purity of flavonoids in Gnaphlium affine Thunb. was 60.92%; The content of flavonoids in Gnaphlium affine Thunb. showed the highest content was in the stem, the second in the flower, and the least in the root. Conclusions The purification of flavonoids from the D-101 macroporous adsorption resin increased in the best purified separation conditions and the content of flavonoids was the highest in the leaf.

Qinling is a treasury of medicine with abundant resources of herbs. Due to the goal of enriching teaching contents, quality of teaching and creating a Chinese materia medica teaching system. Based on the Qinling plant gene database, our education team presents a series of innovative thoughts, such as multidisciplinary contact, inheriting and carrying forward the folk medicine, attaching importance to the practical application of herbs in Qinling and theory with practice to enrich teaching contentsand creating Shanxi characteristic teaching system of Chinese materia madica.That makes a contribution to raise the level of teaching in modern traditional Chinese medicine and promote the development of medicine in Shannxi.

The ethyl acetate extract of Euphorbia lunulata Bge was separated and researched on anticancer activity about it with in vitro cell experiments,in order to provide a theoretical basis for the exploit and utilization of E.lunulata and more options to develop natural anticancer drugs.Quercetin and Gallic Acid in ethyl acetate were extracted by HPLC,which the ethyl acetate extract of E.lunulata was separated and extracted by solvent system.The MTT was used to measure the inhibition of each component with different concentration from ethyl acetate extract to the 2R-75-30 breast cancer cell.The results showed that Quercetin and Galic Acid of ethyl acetate extract were 19.99% and 55.04%,respectively.There were 17 component from the ethyl acetate extract,and finally merged into six fractions.Each component (the concentration of 50 μg/ml-150 μg/ml range) from ethyl acetate extract of E.lunulata could inhibit the growth of ZR-75-30 breast cancer cell.And a certain gradient relationship with the drug concentration increased with the inhibition rate enhancement on the 2R-75-30 breast cancer cell's growth.The 2nd fraction showed the highest activity.It was concluded that there were flavonoids and phenolic acids in ethyl acetate extract.Each component from the extract showed inhibition on the growth of breast cancer cell if it was further separated.This study was designed to provide a theoretical basis to exploit the anticancer drugs from E.lunulata.
