Abstract: Mosquitoes and mosquito-borne illnesses remain one of the major public threats which is intensified by the emergence and resurgence of new and existing vector species. Mosquito control is often the only sustainable measure to combat mosquito-borne diseases due to lack or limitation in vaccinations and/or effective medications. Among mosquito control interventions, larviciding to target aquatic habitats is more cost-effective and feasible as opposite to adulticiding which focuses on air-borne adult stages. The available mosquito larvicides are at a historical low owing to numerous reasons. Currently, available larvicides are based on microbial agents, insect growth regulators (IGRs), and a few others of botanical origins. In the IGR arena, juvenile hormone mimics have drawn a lot of attention in research, development, and application. Pyriproxyfen (PPF) was first developed in the early 1970s by Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd. (SCC). Its great potential and safety profile to control a wide variety of arthropod pests have been recognized ever since. The current review provides general information and highlights the following advantages of PPF: unique mode of action to mimic the action of natural juvenile hormone (JH) in mosquitoes, broad target spectrum against many mosquito species, the highest bioactivity against mosquitoes as compared with all other known or potential mosquito larvicides, low risk in resistance development and lack of cross-resistance with other larvicides studied, and high activity against species in Stegomyia group. Recently, more potential uses of PPF against adult mosquitoes in bait, barrier treatment, and bed net treatment have been on the horizon. Environmental concerns about PPF residues and their metabolites are also discussed. In general, PPF is one of the critical tools in combating mosquito species of public health importance for now and the foreseeable future.

Objective To discriminate the species and individual identification with mitochondrial DNA (mtD-NA) sequencing in forensic medicine practice. Methods The multiplex PCR of mtDNA loop - D high - variation region and cytochrome- b region were investigated. The PCR products were detected with silver- stain method,followed by analysis of the PCR products with fluorescence sequence technique. Results The presence of two bands (358bp,279bp ) indicated the samples were from human, while only one band of 358bp indicated nonhuman origin. The part of mitochondrial DNA loop - D high - variation region (15997 ~ 16236) from 131 unrelated individuals of Guangdong population were sequenced. In all of these samples there were 69 nucleotide variations and 67 haplo-types.There was 2.679 mutation sites on average per person. The polymorphism was 97.92% . Conclusion The methods described here are reliable and very useful in species and personal identification of degraded samples.

Objective To investigate the organic pollutants in the contaminated water irrigation area soil and to study the lipid peroxidation effect of the pollutants on mouse. Methods The organic pollutants of the polluted irrigation soil and control soil were extracted using the supersonic oscillator. The ingredients of the organic pollutants were measured by the GC-MS spectrum. The 40 sanitary Kunming mice were randomly divided into five groups: the dimethylsulfoxide control group,low dose group of control soil,high dose group of control soil,low dose group of polluted soil,high dose group of polluted soil. The administered doses of the low and high dose groups were 25.5 g dry soil/kg body weight per day by oral for two weeks. The activities of T-SOD,GSH-Px and the content of MDA in serum of mice were determined. Results Phenanthrene,yrene,diphenyl,fluorene,naphthalene,dimethyl-naphthalene,2,3,6-trimethyl-naphthalene,anthracene,dimethyl-anthracene,1,4-dimethyl-anthracene,fluoranthene,4-methyl-pyrene,dibenzothiophen,4-methyl-dibenzofuran,dibenzofuran,butylated-hydroxytoluene,dodecane,neopentyl-cyclohexane,trimethyl-heptane,1,2-dimethyl-cyclohexanimine,butethal were detected in the polluted irrigation soil and their levels were 14.3,2.1,1.3,1.1,0.8,1.3,0.4,2.9,7.2,2.3,9.1,0.2,0.4,1.4,1.7,0.37,0.9,0.11,0.02,0.02 and 0.13 mg/kg respectively in the polluted irrigation soil. Trimethyl-heptane,dimethyl-heptane and 1,2-dimethyl-cyclohexanimine were detected,and their levels were all 0.01 mg/kg in control soil. Compared with the solvent of dimethylsulfoxide group,the activities of T-SOD and GSH-Px of the high dose group of control soil and two dose groups of polluted soil all decreased,the differences were all significant(P0.05). Conclusion The soil has been contaminated with organic pollutants in the investigated area and the soil extract may produce a certain effect on lipid peroxidation in mice.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and severity and prognosis by evaluating its changes in severe sepsis patients. Method Us-ing control study design, a total of 29 severe sepsis patients who admired in ICU department of Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from July 2006 to November 2007 were enrolled. The patients were divided into survival group (n=16) and death group (n=13) according to the clinical outcomes at 28 days after onset.A total of 31 healthy persons were enrolled into the control group. Clinical and laboratory data including blood routine test,blood-gas analysis,blood chemistry,C-reactive protein,lactic acid were collected on the first,third and 7th day after on-set,respectively. APACHE Ⅱ score were calculated. VEGF levels were determined using ELISA method. Quantita-tive data were analyzed by Ftest. Results The VEGFlevels ofthe control groupwere (78.77±8.15) pg/mL, the VEGF levels of the survival group on the first,third and 7th day were (210.47±59.40) pg/mL, (161.79 ±32.58) pg/mL and (85.33±12.13) pg/mL, respectively. The peak value of VEGF levels appeared on the first day, Then,it decreased with the progression of the disease. The VEGF levels did not differ significantly between the control group and survival group on the 7th day (P>0.05). The VEGF levels in the death group on the first, third and 7th day were (324.12±44.35) pg/mL,(185.40±30.92) pg/mLand (273.32±55.23) pg/mL, respectively. The peak value of VEGF levels in the death group also appeared on the first day, but it did not de-crease significandy on the 7 th day as compared that on theist day. The value of VEGF levels on the 7 th day were significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.01 ). The levels of VEGF were positive correlated with APACHEⅡ score(rs = 0.510,P<0.01), both VEGF levels and APACHEⅡ score were risk factors for the clinical outcomes of these patients. Conclusions The serum levels of VEGF are elevated at early stage in severe sepsis patients. The VEGF levels, which might be a potential prognositic factor for sepsis patients are significantly correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score.
