Objective:To establish the fingerprint analysis method for the root of Rosa laevigata Michx from different regions by UPLC. Methods:The column was ACQUITY UPLC? Phenyl(2.1 mm × 100 mm,1.7 μm). The mobile phase consisted of methanol-water with gradient elution. The flow rate was 0. 2 ml·min-1 , the detection wavelength was 210 nm, the column temperature was 30℃, and the injection volume was 3 μl. Results:The fingerprint consisted of 15 common peaks. The range of similarity for twelve bat-ches of the root of R. laevigata Michx was 0. 489-0. 942. And the reference fingerprint of the root of R. laevigata Michx was estab-lished by UPLC. Conclusion:The fingerprint method is simple and reproducible, which can provide basis for the quality control and the medicinal resources exploration.

OBJECTIVETo develop an HPLC method for quantitative determination of three quassinoids in Brucea javanic.

METHODThe determination was carried out on a phenomenex C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) with gradient elution program of methol-water at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1), and the detection wavelength was 270 nm.

RESULTLinearites of bruceine D, brusatol and bruceine H were good (r = 0.9996, 0.9996, and 0.9998) in ranges of 2.52-12.60, 2.19-10.95, and 2.91-14.55 microg, respectively. The average recoveries of bruceine D, brusatol and bruceine H were 100.01%, 100.95% and 100.43% respectively, and RSD of the above three compounds were 0.31% (n = 6), 1.7% ( n = 6) and 1.7% (n = 6), respectively.

CONCLUSIONThe determination results of three batch samples showed that the method was simple, accurate and could be used in the quantitative determination of three components in the B. javanica.

Objective To observe the effect of Naomaitai Capsule on the learning and memory abilities and cerebral lipid-peroxidation in rat with vascular dementia(VD).Methods Two VD models were(established).The first one was produced by occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries in rats with the(following) steps: ischemia 20 min—reperfusion 10 min—ischemia 20 min.The learning and memory abilities were tested by Y type maze.Meanwhile,malondiadehyde(MDA) content and superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity in brain tissue of ischemia-reperfusion rats were measured.The second model was formed by injecting thrombin NS solution into internal carotid artery.The learning and memory abilities were studied by Y type Maze.The content of Evans blue in brain tissue was measured.Results In the model caused by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,Naomaitai Capsule significantly improved the learning and memory abilities((P

Object To study the application of macroporous resins to the purified active components of Picria fel-terrae Lour., Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, and Phellodendron chinense Schneid. Methods With the purified active components of Chinese materia medica (CMM) as a standard, we selected the suitable macroporous resins and studied the optimum technological parameters of the adsorption and elution. Results The suitable three types of macroporous resins which were used to the purified active components of CMM were HPD500 for P. fel-terrae., HPD300 for S. baicalensis, and HPD100 for P. chinense. In the absorption course, when the ratios between the medicinal materials amount and the volume of macroporous resins were 1.5 for P. fel-terrae, 0.5 for S. baicalensis and 1 for P. chinense, the purified active components of CMM appeared leaking, and were no more absorbed when the ratios were 11 for P. fel-terrae, 2 for S. baicalensis and 4.75 for P. chinense. In the elution course, the optimum alcohol concentrations were 50% for P. fel-terrae, 30% for S. baicalensis and 50% for P. chinense. Conclusion It is obviously different to refine the active components of CMM, while using the diverse types of macroporous resins.

Object To inquire into the effect on pharmacology of Gejie Dingchuan Capsule (GJDCC). Methods The observation of relieving cough and asthma, removing phlegm, immunity, antibiosis and antiinflammation, antianaphylaxis, and acute and long-term toxicity was carried out. Results GJDCC could resist the convulsion of the isolated trachea of guinea pigs, lengthen the asthma incubation period of guinea pigs, increase the phlegm liquid secreting capacity of isolated rat trachea, promote the pigeon trachea cilium motion, lengthen the mice cough incubation period, restrain the mice ear swelling and rat swelling hyperplasia of granulation, promote the mice producing of serum hemolysin and the lymphocyte conversion rate, and reduce the guinea pig allergic reaction index and shock death rate. It possessed the bacteriostasis, the biggest capacity of bearing consumption was 500 times the clinical daily use and in long-term toxicity test there were not the clear toxicity reactions. Conclusion GJDCC has the function of relieving asthma and cough, removing phlegm, antibiosis and antiinflammation, antianaphylaxis and immunity, without poisonous side effect.
