A method of ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometry ( UPLC-Q-TOF MS) was developed to determine 35 kinds of illegally added chemical fungicides in pesticide formulations. The samples were pretreated based on the ultrasonic extraction by the solvent of methanol, and then separated on a Zorbax C18(100 mm×1. 8 mm, 2. 1 μm) column by a gradient elution with 0. 1% formic acid aqueous solution and acetonitrile as the mobile phase. The mass spectrometer was operated under positive mode. Under the optimal conditions, the recoveries at three spiked levels (0. 2, 0. 4, and 2. 0 mg/kg) were in the range of 81. 0%-101. 3% and the RSDs were 1. 0%-4. 4%. Based on the developed method, 100 samples were analyzed, and among which 6 samples were screened out chemical fungicides. The proposed method was high-efficient, accurate and reliable for the qualitatively screening of illegaly added chemical fungicides.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on quadriceps muscle strength and walking for patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). MethodsThirty-four patients after ACLR were selected at Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital of Capital Medical University from July, 2022 to October, 2023, and randomly divided into control group (n = 17) and experimental group (n = 17). Both groups received routine rehabilitation and functional training, and the experimental group received NMES during the functional training, while the control group received sham NMES, for eight weeks. Quadriceps peak torque-to-weight ratio, single-leg support phase and plantar impulses during walking were measured before and after intervention. ResultsTwo cases in the control group and three in the experimental group dropped down. Quadriceps peak torque-to-weight ratio improved in both groups after intervention (|t| > 17.578, P < 0.001), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (t = 4.714, P < 0.001); while the affected single-leg support phase and the affected/unaffected single-leg support phase ratio improved in both groups (|t| > 16.882, P < 0.001), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 3.234, P < 0.01); and plantar impulses of all zones optimized in both groups (t > 9.221, P < 0.001), and were better in the experimental group than in the control group(|t| > 2.852, P < 0.01). ConclusionNMES may further improve quadriceps muscle strength, plantar pressure distribution during walking and single-leg support in patients after ACLR.
