Objective To discuss the role of nucleic acid test(NAT)in blood screening to provide the scientific basis for the se-lection of blood screening strategies.Methods The serological detection and NAT were simultaneously performed on 68 662 speci-mens of voluntary blood donation from January 2012 to April 2013;29 samples of HBV DNA positive with serological HBsAg nega-tive were performed the serum HBV markers detection.Partial samples of anti-HIV antibody positive were sent to CDC for conduc-ting the confirmation test.Results Among 68 662 samples,120 cases of single NAT positive were detected out,the residual risk of blood transfusion was 0.175%.In the serum HBV markers detection,the mode of HBcAb was predominant.11 cases of HIV posi-tive were confirmed and all were the NAT positive samples.Conclusion NAT can reduce the residual risk of blood transfusion,en-sure the safety of blood transfusion.NAT and the serological detection are mutual complementation and not replaced by each other. The suitable screening strategy shold be selected.

Objective To study the whole-genome evolution of influenza B viruses prevalent in Qingdao from 2006 to 2011 .Methods RNA was extracted from influenza B viruses isolated in Qingdao from 2006 to 2011 .Each gene segment was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) and then sequenced .Gene sequences of each virus were determined and assembled by using Sequench -er software .A phylogenetic analysis for each gene segment was conducted by using MEGA 5.0 software pack-age.Results The phylogenetic tree of hemagglutinin ( HA) gene showed that 13 strains from 2006 to 2009 belonging to V1 clade of Victoria lineage were B/Malaysia/2506/2004-like viruses,and 12 strains from 2009 to 2011 belonging to the V2 clade of Victoria lineage were B/Brisbane/60/2008-like viruses.Moreover, strains of Yamagata lineage were all B/Florida/4/2006-like viruses including 5 strains of Y1 clade circulated from 2006 to 2008 and 7 strains of Y2 clade circulated from 2010 to 2011, respectively.The analysis of whole-genome evolution showed that 3 viruses of V2 clade presented 5+3 reassortment and 1 virus presented 1+7 reassortment.All reassortant strains matched with the vaccine strains of the present and previous season . The Yamagata and Victoria lineage strains belonged to genotype 2 and genotype 15,respectively.Compared with vaccine strains , the HA1 protein of Victoria lineage strains showed mutations at amino acid sites of H14Q, L58P, N129S, I146V, N171D and R279K, while R48K, K88R, P108A, N116K, S150I, N165Y, D196N,N202S and S229G amino acid mutations were mainly detected in Yamagata lineage strains .The sites 116 and 129,150,165,196 and 202 located in the 120,150,160 and 190 loops,respectively,which had been previously determined to be the hotspots under positive selection .Conclusion Both Yamagata and Victoria lineages of influenza B viruses were prevalent in Qingdao and evolved continuously from 2006 to 2011 .The selective pressure that a vaccine would provide was only to virus strains belonging to the same lineage ,sug-gesting a bivalent vaccine may be better for the induction of protective immunity .

Objective To provide the candidate antigens for immunological diagnosis by analyzing the expression of nu -cleoprotein ( NP) of Ebola virus. Methods BioSun software was used to predict the NP epitopes. The bridging-PCR was used to synthesize the NP gene. The pBVIL1 vector was used to clone and express the NP gene. Results The 360-739 aa of NP was confirmed to be the dominant antigen by BioSun software. The recombinant NP dominant antigen was expressed in E.coli with molecular weight of 58 ×103.The specificity of ELISA based on recombinant NP was 99.24% (130/131) in negative samples. Conclusions The dominant NP antigen can be potentially used for developing Ebola virus diagnostic reagent.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the variations of hepatitis C virus (HCV) quasispecies and the changes in their composition in untreated patients with chronic hepatitis C.
METHODSEleven patients chronic hepatitis C without previous specific anti-HCV treatment were tracked for disease progression and blood samples were collected at multiple time points. The major clinical parameters of liver function and viral load were tested. A fragment of HCV hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) was amplified and cloned, and the positive clones were sequenced and subsequently analyzed to determine the composition variation of HCV quasispecies during disease progression in relation to the major clinical parameters.
RESULTSA total of 631 HVR1 sequences were acquired from the positive clones. The evolution of HCV HVR1 quasispecies in untreated chronic hepatitis C patients featured 3 patterns of variation in quasispecies composition, namely stable, fast and slow changes during the natural course of chronic hepatitis C. The genetic distance of the quasispecies was found to inversely correlated with ALT (R=-0.438, P=0.011) and AST level (R=-0.500, P=0.003), and sense mutation rate was also inversely correlated with ALT level (R=-0.387, P=0.026) and AST level (R=-0.410, P=0.018). No significant association was found between HCV load and any clinical or virological parameters.
CONCLUSIONDue to individual differences and immune pressure, HCV quasispecies can present with different patterns of evolution in the natural disease progression of chronic hepatitis C. HCV quasispecies evolution, due to its close correlation with the biochemical parameters, can be used to evaluate the severity and prognosis of chronic hepatitis C.
