Photothermal immunotherapy has shown great promise in the treatment of tumor metastasis. However, the thermal resistance of tumor cells substantially compromises the treatment effect of photothermal immunotherapy. Herein, a high-performance organic pyroelectric nanoplatform, Bu-TPAD-BF nanoparticles (NPs), is rationally engineered for the effective pyroelectroimmunotherapy of tumor metastasis.

Objective: To study the correlation between chemical component content and grades of Cistanche deserticola,and then to determine the optimum steaming time of different grades of Cistanche deserticola.

Methods: Morphological indexes of postharvest stems of Cistanche deserticola were analyzed by principal component analysis and K-mean cluster analysis to determine a grading standard. Concentrations of phenylethanoid glycosides,polysaccharides,dilute ethanol-soluble extracts and total ashes in dried stems of Cistanche deserticola were determined using high performance liquid chromatography and ultraviolet spectrophotometer.

Objective: To study the volatile compounds from inflorescence of Cistanche deserticola and provide basis for its utilization and seed breeding.

Methods: The volatile compounds were collected by dynamic headspace adsorption and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Results: Forty volatile components were identified in inflorescence of Cistanche deserticola from squaring period to full-bloom period.

In the present paper, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) associated with second derivative infrared spectroscopy and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-IR) were used to analyze the 3 different sources of Hebra cistanche. The results showed that these IR spectra showed their different macro-fingerprint features: the charactersistic peaks of C. deserticola were located at approximately 1 730, 1 633, 1 156, 1 081, 1 025 and 931 cm(-1) and those of C.

In the present paper, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) combined with two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-IR) was used for the identification of Cistanche deserticola from its adulterants, Boschniakla rossica and Cynomorium songaricum. The results showed that these IR spectra showed their different macro-fingerprint feathers: the charactersistic peaks for Cistanche deserticola were located at -1 730 and 931 cm(-1). While absorption peaks at -1 510, 1 375 and 1 266 cm(-1) were only found in Boschniakla rossica.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the reproduction characteristics of Cistanche deserticola, focusing on its growth dynamics in a Ningxia plantation.
  • Results showed that germination occurs within the first ten days of the month, followed by a flowering period lasting about a month, and that the levels of boschnaloside and echinacoside decline during this reproduction phase.
  • The conclusion indicates that C. deserticola has a reproduction period of approximately two months, with germination being the optimal time for harvesting.
