Research on household emergency supplies storage from the theory of planned behavior and intention-behavior gap in the context of COVID-19

IntroductionIn the context of COVID-19 epidemic, household-level emergency supplies are becoming a critical link in the national emergency response mechanism for public health emergencies. The main goal of this study is to analyze the forming process of household emergency supplies storage intention and behavior based on the theory of planned behavior.MethodsA total of 486 valid questionnaires were obtained from China and analyzed using structural equation modeling.ResultsThe study found that subjective norms and perceived behavioral control had a positive impact on residents’ intention to store emergency supplies, while attitudes did not play a significant role. Community institutional trust and community network play significant moderating roles in the transformation from intentions to behaviors.DiscussionThis study explored the influencing factors of residents’ household emergency supplies storage, and introduced community institutional trust and community network as moderating variables to analyze the process of transformation of residents’ household emergency supplies storage intentions to behaviors from the perspective of community situation, and initially constructed a two-stage integration model including intention formation and behavior transformation. By analyzing the forming process of household emergency supplies behavior, this paper revealed the effective paths for the formation of household emergency supplies storage intention, and put forward policy suggestions from the government and community levels

Spectral Characteristics and Quantitative Analysis of Troxerutin-Cu2+ Complex

[Objectives] This study aims to establish a simple, convenient, fast, low-cost, low-consumption and efficient method for quality control of troxerutin. [Methods] In NaAc-phosphate buffer at pH = 8, troxerutin could react with Cu2+ to form complex, which had a characteristic absorption peak at 408 nm in the ultraviolet spectrum. The content of troxerutin could be determined indirectly by measuring the absorbance of the complex. [Results] Within the linear range of 27.82 - 74.19 μg/mL, the absorbance of the complex has a good linear relationship with the concentration of troxerutin. The regression equation is A=0.011 9 C - 0. 138 4 (r = 0.999 1), and the detection limit is 1.59 μg/mL. This method is used to determine the content of troxerutin in samples from different manufacturers, and the recovery is 100.9%-102.7%. [Conclusions] The ultraviolet spectrophotometry is used in this experiment to indirectly determine the content of troxerutin by measuring the absorbance of troxerutin-Cu2+ complex, and the results are accurate, reproducible and highly precise. This method can be used for quantitative analysis of troxerutin
