This paper reported a rapid hydrolysis method of food protein using microwave oven and high pressure vessel technique. Tryptophan in hydroly-zate was determined by fluorimetric spectroscopy method. The hydrolytic agent was 5 M NaOH solution. Under the operative condition of the microwave oven (microwave output power 650W, 2 minutes 15 seconds and 65W 2 minutes) the highest tryptophan contents of the pure protein lysozymum and food SRM liver, cabbage and wheat flour were obtained. The results of the t-test showed that there was no significant difference between the tryptophan contents determined by using the operative condition of the microwave oven mentioned above and 145℃ 4h hydrolysis method. The recovery of the method was 93.3%-107%, and the coefficient of variation obtained by parallel determination of 10 lysozymum sample was 4.2%.

Objective To explore the anticoagulating active components in water extraction, alcohol sedimentation and fraction separated by gelfiltration chromatography of Bombyx Batryticatus. Methods Anticoagulating active fractions were prepared by the methods of water extraction, 70% alcohol sedimentation and gelfiltration chromatography. Components (such as porteins or polypeptide, amino acids, oxalic acid ammonium) in each fraction were determined by chemical reaction indentification, Kjeldahl method, conductance, UV and HPLC. Results Polypeptide, amino acids and oxalic acid ammonium were the main components in anticoagulating active fractions, content of which reached more than 80%. The content of oxalic acid ammonium decreased about 52% processed by alcohol sedimentation, while the content of polypeptide and amino acids only decreased about 8%. The content of peptides and amino acids increased about 28% purified by gelfiltration chromatography compared with the one in water extraction and about 39% compared with the one in alcohol sedimentation. The content of oxalic acid ammonium was the same as the one in alcohol sedimentation, but decreased about 1 time compared with the one in water extraction. The content of 15 kinds of amino acids were 40%~50% in the solids of each fractions, which maked up to 60%~76% of the content of proteins determined by Kjeldahl method. Molecular weight range of peptides is 1.0~4.4 kDa. Conclusion This study provides a experimental basis for further separation and purification of anticoagulating active components from Bombyx Batryticatus.

An efficient and repeatable approach in transforming the foxtail millet (Setaria italica ) using Agrobacterium LBA4404 horboring the plasmid pBI121 was established. Factors affecting transformation efficiency were investigated including the genotype, explants, the density of bacteria, the duration for inoculation and co-cultivation, and the concentration of acetosyringone in the medium. The maximum transformation conditions were: the callus induced from inflorescence was used as explant; the duration for inoculation with Agrobacterium at low cell density was 30-40 min; for the co-cultivation , the suitable concentration of acetosyringone in the medium was 0.1 mmol/L, and the duration was 2 days.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy objectively and systematically between endoscopic and microscopic surgery for transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma by a Meta-analysis.Methods A systematic literature search of Medline,the Cochrane Library,the Web of Science and the Google Scholar were performed to recruit studies between January,1990 and May,2015 that compared endoscopic and microscopic approaches in the treatment of pituitary adenomas.A Meta-analysis(R-3.1.3) was conducted to estimate the effect of different operative procedures.Results A total of 22 studies including 3 randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trails and 19 case-control studies met the inclusion criteria.Among 1421 patients studied,733 of them were treated with endoscopic and 688 were treated with microscopic surgery.The rate of gross tumor removal was higher in patients who underwent endoscopic surgery (71%) than those who underwent microscopic surgery (56%)(P < 0.05).The rate of remission of hypersecretion was also higher in patients who underwent endoscopic surgery(60%) than those who underwent microscopic surgery(54%),but the difference was not significantly(P > 0.05).Conclusion The present study indicates that the endoscopic transsphenoidal approach is more effective than microscopic surgery in the treatment of pituitary adenomas.

Objective To study the effects of improved Wright-Giemsa staining. Methods 40 semen samples by both traditional and improved Wright-Giemsa staining.The morphological characteristics stained by two methods was ob-served. Results The defective rates of the middle and tail parts of sperm were 7.02%± 2.4%and 11.02%± 2.03%respec-tively in improved staining group;while those were 5.48%±2.8%and 8.05%±2.56%in traditional staining group. There was statistical significance between two staining methods (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference of normal sperm and sperm head between these two staining methods;however, improved staining method showed a much clearer nucleus and ac-rosome staining than that of traditional methods. Improved Wright-Giemsa staining is better for sperm, vaginal discharge and Trichomonas vaginalis. More importantly, axostyle and flagella were clearly stained with the improved method. Conclusion Improved Wright-Giemsa staining is simple and can be used in clinical diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the computer aided detection system on the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules. Methods: 120 cases of examined patients with solitary lung nodules up to 9-30 mm in diameter were evaluated. All nodules had been verified by means of biopsy. 120 cases of healthy patients were selected as control group on the basis of confirmation on the chest CT. All chest radiograph in the two group were obtained with a digital radiography system. Five experienced chest radiologists and five residents detected the chest radiograph with or without CAD output images. The scales of performance were evaluated with receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve). Results: The average area under the curve value increased significantly from 0.762 without to 0.825 with CAD output images(P
