Researches on pharmacological action and drug development of Periplane- ta americana have demonstrated that it has wide medicinal value, low side effects and rich resources, having good application prospects in medicine field. This article reviewed the researches on pharmacological action and clinical application of Periplaneta americana in order to provide references for the further research and devel- opment of Periplaneta americana medicines.
[ Objective] This study aimed to explore a Tricine-SDS-PAGE method for separation and purification of Periplaneta Americana small peptides. [ Method] By comparing the separation effects of three types of gels with different ratios on P. Americana small peptides, an appropriate Tricine-SDS-PAGE method for separation of small peptides was established. [ Result] Standard low molecular weight Marker was preliminarily separated to a certain extent with polyacrylamide gel electraphoresis, while the sample mixture was not separated due to the different levels of aggregation in separating gel, spacer gel and stacking gel. [Condusion] More appropriate polyacrylamide gel electrephoresis separation method or other better separation methods were to be further explored for separating peptide mixture with smaller molecular weight.
