RESUMEN
UV-Vis and HPLC fingerprint of different harvest time of the leaves of Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. were establish the for identification and quality evaluation to promote the development of Dai Medicine modernization. The optimal extraction condition was used to obtain UV - vis data of different harvest time which were deducted background and eight spot smooth, were collected to make the principal component analysis in SIMCA-P(+)11.5, identifying the samples quickly with the first three principal component three-dimensional diagram. The HPLC fingerprint were obtained with Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse XDB C18 (250×4.6 mm, 5 µm) chromatographic column with the mobile phase of acetonitrile (B) - water (contain 0.1% formic acid) (A) for gradient elution (0ï½5 min, 5% B; 5ï½35 min, 5% Bâ26% B; 35ï½40 min, 26% Bâ56% B). The wavelength was set at 287 nm and the column temperature was maintained at 30 â. The flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1 and the injection volume was 7 µL. The HPLC fingerprint of different harvest time of the leaves of Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. was analysised by cluster analysis to quality evaluation. Research findings showing: (1) The UV-Vis spectrogram of different harvest time of the leaves of Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. were divided into three parts according to the absorption peak position and amplitude of variation. The first was 235 to 400 nm, the second was 400 to 500 nm, and the third was 500 to 800 nm. In the first part, absorption peak were focused on 270, 287 and 325 nm, which can reflect the fingerprint character for the high absorbance and amplitude of variation. Absorption peak were distributed in 410 and 464 nm in the second part, absorbance and amplitude of variation were lower than the first part. There was a bigger absorption peak at 665 nm in the third part, but the absorbance had no difference. The UV-Vis data of different harvest time were gathered to make the principal component analysis, the result was that the samples of same month were concentrated distribution, but different month samples were dispersed distribution. (2) HPLC fingerprint were divided into three categories through hierarchical cluster analysis, 3, 4, 5 and 7 month were the first category, 6, 8, 9 month samples were second category, the others were third category. Chemical composition and content of the same category samples were similar, but the different category samples had a obvious difference, more important is that the third category samples content was the highest. Combining UV-Vis FP and HPLC FP can identify and evaluate quickly the samples of different harvest time of the leaves of Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. The optimal harvest time of Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. was from October to next February, which was the coldest season in the Dai calendar.

OBJECTIVE: To establish microscopic identification standards for four species from Uncaria genus. METHODS: The microscopic characteristics of transvers section and powder of these four species rattan were observed. RESULTS: As for these four species from Uncaria genus, the microscopic identification of rattan transvers section could be made by the existence of cork cambium and pericycle in the cortex, and the location of phloem fiber and stone cells, while the powder identification could be made according to the existence of scalariform vessel and calcium oxalate crystal, and the quantity of stone cells. CONCLUSION: The microscopic characteristics of rattan can provide information for identification of these four species from Uncaria genus.

To study the chemical constituents of the Entada phaseoloides (L.) Merr., seeds of Entada phaseoloides were extracted with 70% ethanol at room temperature. Isolation and purification were performed by silica gel, reversed-phase silica gel column chromatography and semi-preparative HPLC. Structures of the pure compounds were established on the basis of spectral analysis. Four sulfur-containing amide compounds were isolated from the n-BuOH-soluble fraction and identified as entadamide A-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), entadamide A (2), entadamide A-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3) and clinacoside C (4). Compound 1 is a new compound. Compound 4 is isolated from the genus Entada for the first time.

OBJECTIVE: To study the acute toxicity of the crude and processed products of Entada phaseoloides and their effects on gastrointestinal movement in mice. METHODS: Using the method of intragastric administration, to observe the acute toxicity of the crude and processed products of Entada phaseoloides in mice and determine their LD50. With the methods of charcoal propulsion of small intestine and methyl orange colorimetry of gastric emptying, to study the impact of the crude and processed products of Entada on gastrointestinal movement in mice. RESULTS: The oral LD50 of crude Entada phaseoloides, No. 1 and No. 2 processed products of Entada phaseoloides in mice were 27.17, 35.13, 42.18 g/kg body weight. Crude and processed products of Entada phaseoloides can significantly promote the enteric propulsion of normal mice, and can significantly counteract the depressing status induced by atropine, but have no influence on the overactive status induced by neostigmine. The high, middle and low-dose of groups showed significant inhibition of the gastric emptying in normal mice. CONCLUSION: Processed Entada phaseoloides showed effects on the enteric propulsion of normal and depressing mice, can restrain the gastric emptying under normal mice, but its safety is better than crude Entada phaseoloides.
