To achieve the goal of poliovirus eradication, surveillance of endemic areas is a crucial step in the poliovirus eradication program. Currently, six countries still have endemic poliovirus. We have tested a novel method which uses SDS/EDTA-treated chromatography paper strips to collect and transport poliovirus-containing stool samples. The SDS/EDTA-treated paper strips were soaked with different dilutions of poliovirus-containing feces and stored at different temperatures. After storing the SDS/EDTA paper strips for 5 months at 37 degrees C, poliovirus RNA could be successfully amplified using RT-PCR. Infectivity of wild-type poliovirus type 1, 2, and 3 was lost upon contact with the SDS/EDTA-treated strips. This easy, inexpensive, and biosafe chromatography paper strip method for the collection and transportation of poliovirus samples can be of use in poliovirus surveillance and polio vaccination programs.
Lignans are a class of secondary plant metabolites produced by oxidative dimerization of two phenylpropanoid units. They have been found in many plants of Oriental medicine. In consequence of recent knowledge it is held that lignans are responsible for the key pharmacological activities of these plants. This review surveys the chromatographic, electromigration and hyphenated methods so far applied for the separation of lignans in Oriental plants used in phytotherapy as well as for the analyses of these lignans and their metabolites in biological matrices and food samples. In addition, the sample clean-up procedures--solvent extractions and supercritical fluid extractions--are also included.
In this review, chemical constituents present in Rhododendron dauricum L. were briefly surveyed, and the methods of pretreatment of this plant prior to analysis were also summarized. The analysis methods reported for determining pharmaceutically active compounds in R. dauricum L. include gas chromatography with mass spectrscopy, thin layer chromatography (TLC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). In addition, both advantages and disadvantages of the above methods were mentioned.
