Seasonal resource selection of free-ranging Zhongwei goats in the semi-arid grassland.

Goats rarely move and forage randomly. They tend to move in ways generally influenced by biotic and abiotic factors, respectively. However, few studies have explored the foraging behaviour of goats in the absence of predation and human disturbance.

[Correlaion between serum Golph2 protein and hepatocellular carcinoma].

Objective: To study the correlation between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and serum Golph2 protein.

Methods: Golph2 gene was cloned by RT-PCR using RNA from WBF44 cell line as template, the point mutations of the cloned sequence were corrected by PCR, then the gene (1206 bp) was cloned into pET-21 plasmid, and the resulted plasmid was transformed into E.coli DH5a.

[Determination of the contents of trace elements in chinese herbal medicines for treating respiratory system diseases].

There is an intimate connection between trace elements and body healthiness, trace elements and organism depend on each other, and each trace element exists with certain proportion, which preserve physio-function. If the balance is of maladjustment, diseases may occur or develop. The trace elements were determined in 16 kinds of Chinese herbal medicines by atomic absorption spectrometry.

[Analysis and study of total flavone and trace element in carthmus tinctorius L].

The content of total flavone in carthmus tinctorius L in Xinjiang was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry with scan from 200 to 400 nm where the maximum absorption wavelength was 267.00 nm. The contents of ten trace elements and constant elements in carthmus tinctorius L including potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, iron, chromium, nickel, manganese, copper and zinc were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry.

[Determination and analysis of trace element manganese and amino acids content in aloe tea].

The content of trace element manganese in aloe tea was determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The contents of 17 kinds of amino acids in aloe tea were determined with amino acids instrumentation. The results showed that there are comparatively rich manganese and amino acids in aloe tea.

[Analysis of the contents of Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, Co and Ni in thymopeptide and transfer factor biological injections].

Thymopeptide and transfer factor are two common clinic biological preparations, which are used to cure immunodeficiency, low immunofunction or infectious disease caused by virus or fungi owing to their functions of increasing body immunity. In order to discuss the relationship between trace elements and those related diseases, to coordinate sound clinic use of the preparations and to provide productive data on them, atomic absorption spectrophotometry was used to detect the contents of Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, Co and Ni in thymopeptide and transfer factor biological preparations. Respective contents of detected elements were compared in a statistical way.

[Determination of Na, Mn, Mg, Cr and Ni in 10 Chinese traditional medicines by FAAS].

Five metallic elements in 10 Chinese traditional medicines such as Na, Mn, Mg, Cr and Ni were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results show that there are rich metal elements, but the contents are different in 10 Chinese traditional medicines. Among them, the content of Na element is the highest in Naosaitong; the content of milligram is the highest in Zhongfenghuichunpian; the content of Mn is the highest in Qianglitianmaduzhong pill; but in Xiaoshuantongluo capsule, the contents of Cr and Ni are higher.
