TCM Systematology: Ancient Wisdom Against Contemporary Global Crisis

 

Abstract

In the era of globalization and pluralism, the world is constantly experiencing cultural conflicts, political divisions, and war killings. Mankind has not yet established a good policy to maintain world security. Because modern society lacks cultural wisdom matching globalization. Traditional Chinese medicine philosophy inherits the ancient cultural tradition, and its system balance theory and coordination thought have important inspiration for solving the crisis of modern society.

Systematic Thinking Of TCM Helps to Construct a New Order of Globalization

The way out of the crisis lies in building high-level system thinking. Einstein said: “the answers to all difficult problems are at a higher level. It is difficult to solve problems at the same level by thinking at the same level. Only when your own cognitive level is improved can you successfully solve low-level problems, just like college students doing math problems for primary school students.” In view of the vulgar performances of primary school students on the international political stage, we need the University thinking of traditional Chinese medicine philosophy [1].

TCM classics such as the《nner Canon of Huangdi》《Treatise on typhoid feve》and others contain the idea of ecological balance and harmonious social development: the human body is regarded as an active system restricted by various natural factors, and local diseases are considered in the whole system clinically, so that the body can heal itself by regulating the meridian system. For example, traditional Chinese medicine believes that ear acupoints correspond to whole body organs through meridians and collaterals and stimulating ear acupoints can adjust and improve the state of corresponding systems and bodies. Similarly, tongue color and shape changes can also be used as a diagnostic basis. This is the dialectical method of TCM bio holography in clinic and diagnosis. Use the energy of the human body to solve health problems [2,3].

We can use this systematic thinking model for reference to analyze isolated international events in the globalization system. For example, the Ukraine Russia war is a political contest between the European and American camps and the two camps composed of Russia, China and other countries. Systemic advantage is the key to victory. TCM is good at predicting the future development of the situation through hidden factors. This is what modern human society lacks.

Bioremediation of Cypermethrin by Laccase Producing Bacteria

 

Abstract

Increased urbanization and industries has led to the production, accumulation and incorporation of contaminant into the ecosystems, distorting and impacting, plant, human and animal health. Several physical, chemical, and biological strategies have been adopted to eliminate these contaminants from soil and water bodies. Biotechnological processes involving microorganisms and enzymes have been widely used for this purpose; specifically, laccases, which is a versatile enzyme which catalyse oxidation reaction coupled to four- electron reduction of molecular oxygen to water. Laccases 1, 4-benzenediol oxygen oxidoreductase, are also called as “Blue Enzyme” as they are multinuclear copper containing enzymes. Laccase belongs to the superfamily of multicopper oxidases (MCOs)—a group of enzymes comprising many proteins with different substrate specificities and diverse biological functions. are broad spectrum biocatalysts, have been used to degrade several compounds, such as those that can be found in the effluents from industries and hospitals. Cypermethrin is an organophosphorus pesticide, belonging to a group of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides which are analogous of naturally occurring pyrethrins of botanical origin. It is widely used in agriculture, forestry, Horticulture, public health, and households for the protection of textiles and to check pest infestation. The present investigation is therefore carried out to study the potential of bacterial laccase in the biodegradation of Cypermethrin.

Introduction

Laccase belongs to the enzyme family of multi- copper oxidases (MCOs), are classified as benzenediol oxygen reductases and are also known as Uracil oxidases and p-diphenol oxidases. The term ‘Laccase’ stems from its original identification in the exudates of the Japanese lacquer tree Rhusver nicifera described by Yoshida (1883). Just over a century later, it was characterized as being a metal-containing oxidase depicted by Bertrand (1985). Laccase can catalyse the oxidation of various organic and inorganic compounds including diphenols, polyphenols, diamines, substituted phenols, and aromatic amines with reduction of molecular oxygen to water. Laccase also oxidizes other substrates such as aromatic amines, syringaldazine, 2,2-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline6-sulphonate) and 1hydroxybenzotriazole, 2,2,6,6-tetrametylpiperidineoxy (TEMPO), violuric acid to form free radicals (Zille et al., 2003).
