Article Synopsis
  • * Key findings revealed that Cu, Al, and Mn were absent in rhizoma dioscoreae, while Mg, Zn, and Cr were present; starches showed different crystal types between the two species.
  • * The combination of XRF and PXRD proved effective for analyzing elemental and micro-structural differences in Dioscorea opposita Thunb from various regions.

The contents of various elements in the fourth generation atractylodes macrocephala koidz cultivated by spaceflight breeding were analyzed and compared with those of the ground group on the whole jointly by XRF and PXRD. The results showed that the element Na and Ti could not be detected in the space group, and the levels of K and Mn were enhanced by 1.16 and 1.

Studied with X-ray fluorescence spectrum analytic (XRF), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for five different species of Salvia miltiorrhiza bge grew in Anguo, the intrinsic components and microstructures were determined and comprehensive characterization was carried out. The figure of comprehensive characterization can describe characteristics of intrinsic components from elements, crystal and amorphous active component, it can give an intuitive description for the same components and subtle differences in the intrinsic components of Salvia miltiorrhiza bge, which are different idioplasmatic and same species. It is the ideal method because of the simple preparation of sample, rapid and fine accurate measurement with reproducibility and objectivity, so that it can be used for breeding of fine varieties of Chinese medicinal materials, Chinese medicinal materials GAP guidance of growing conditions, medicinal origin characteristics, the intrinsic composition and microstructure characterization, quality control and authenticity of the identification.

Determination and analysis for the Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi with space mutagenesis and the ground group were carried out with FTIR for the first time in order to fully understand the quality changes of the 4th generation of space mutagenesis of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and do further research. The result shows that for the FTIR spectra of the two samples the position and shape of main absorption peaks are approximately the same, indicating that the major components and the structures of space group remain intact, but the intensities of the absorption peaks are obviously different, with the intensities of the space group significantly enhanced compared to the ground group, especially for the flavonoid compounds (baicalin, baicalein, wogonoside, wogonin and wogonoside etc), which are the main active components of the Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, the absorption peak intensities at 3391, 1655 and 1069 cm(-1) are obviously stronger than those of the ground group, so the contents of flavonoid compounds and other components are higher, and the amorphous active components are optimized. Space mutation breeding is conducive to breeding new varieties of highly active components, and it is also one of the ways to innovate Chinese medicines germplasm resources efficiently.

To cultivate oriented new varieties, Saposhnikovia divaricata seeds were carried by Shenzhou "3" satellite and filtered when they were being brought back. In the present paper, X-ray fluorescence(XRF) was used to mensurate and analyze the contents of elements of the two samples from the ground group and the 4th generation of space Saposhnikovia divaricata (space group) that have advantages in branches and leaves and yields. The contents of the main mineral elements in the two samples are the same basically.

Five samples of spirulina from different producing areas were analyzed and characterized with X-ray fluorescence analysis. The contents of K, Na, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn and Mn in spinrulina samples from different producing areas were determined. The results show that spinrulinas are rich in microelements that human body needs.
