The MPN method was used to enumerate ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) in water and sediments of several shallow lakes. The suitable incubation time, medium types and substrate (ammonium sulphate) concentrations were studied. The results showed that, MPN values increased with the incubation time, reaching a stable maximum at some time stages, which was 40 days in all the samples for MSF medium. Among the three media used (XZ-AOB、MSF、SW), MSF give the highest MPN value. In addition, am- monium sulphate concentration in medium was an important factor affecting MPN estimation of AOB. Compared to AOB in lake sediments, AOB in lake water was more sensitive to ammonium sulphate concentration.

Aim To investigate the Clotrimazoles (CLT) inhibitive effect on the secretion of ?-defensins of the Paneth cells.Methods The ?-defensin mRNA expression is determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The secretion of defensins is determined by dot-blot and ELISA. Results CLT has no influence on the defensin mRNA expression. All of 125 nmol?L -1, 250 nmol?L -1 and 500 nmol?L -1 CLT can inhibit the secretion of ?-defensins. Conclusion CLT could inhibit the secretion of defensins, which suggests that CLT maybe influence the function of small intestine

Objective To investigate the effects of constant magnetic field on secretion and expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ). Methods The fourth to sixth passages of in vitro cultured VSMCs from human umbilical artery were used. The cells were divided into six groups, i.e. control group, AngⅡ (1?10 -6mol/L) group, Ang Ⅱ with exposure to 1, 5, 10 or 50 Gs of constant magnetic field groups. Samples were collected 12 hours after intervention. The secretion of VCAM-1 was assayed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the expression of VCAM-1 was assessed by immunocytochemistry. Results The secretion of VCAM-1 was increased significantly 12 hours after intervention with AngⅡ of 10 -6mol/L (P

Objective To study the curative effect of endoscopic dilatation in children with benign esophageal stricture. Methods 98 patients with benign esophageal stenosis from June 2013 to June 2016 were selected as the subjects of group A, group B and group C, 11 patients in group A were reflux esophageal stenosis, 43 children in group B were congenital esophageal atresia and in group C were 44 patients with chemical burn esophageal stricture. Then compare the three groups of children before the expansion of stenosis before the situation, the number of expansion and complications occurred. Results There was no significant difference in the average diameter of stenosis among the three groups (P > 0.05). The average length of the children in group C was higher than that in group A and group B, and group B was higher than group A, the difference was statistically significant (P > 0.05). The average number of expansion in group C was higher than that in group A and group B, and group B was higher than that in group A and group B higher than group A, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in group C was higher than that in group A and B. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between group A and group B (P > 0.05). Conclusion Endoscopic dilatation has a good clinical effect on children with benign esophageal stricture, but children with chemical burn esophageal stricture need to be expanded more often, while the complications are higher and the treatment is more difficult.

The neonatal burst suppression is a severe EEG pattern and always demonstrates serious damage of nerve system. But the outcome of these patients depends on the different etiology. A total of 256 cases of video EEG recordings were analyzed in order to summarize the etiology and outcome of burst suppression. The results showed that some patients in all 17 cases of burst suppression showed EEG improvement. The etiology was the dominant factor in long term outcome. It was suggested that effective video EEG monitoring is helpful for etiologic study and prognosis evaluation.

【Objective】To establish a simple,rapid and practical method for the in-vitro isolation,purification and proliferation of rat marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs).【Methods】Rat MSCs were isolated and purified by differential adhesion method.The effects of conditioned medium on the morphologic characteristics and growth of rat MSCs were observed.【Results】Rat MSCs were effectively purified by differential adhesion method,and grew well with good proliferation and normal morphology in conditioned medium.【Conclusion】Differential adhesion method and conditioned medium are effective for the purification and culture of rat MSCs.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector of human PRKCB1 containing enhanced green fluorescence protein gene and transfer into human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs),then identify activity of expression protein.Methods The pReceiver-M29-PRKCB1 eukaryotic expression plasmid was constructed by frame amplified from pMD18-T-PRKCB1 plasmid.Then the recombinant plasmids were identified by enzyme analysis and DNA sequencing.According to optimized conditions,the eukaryotic expression plasmids were transfered into HUVECs and observed under fluorescence microscope.After that,transfection efficiency was calculated under random vision.The plasma membrane/cytosol ratio of fluorescence was calculated under confocal microscope.The translocation was identified.Results The gene sequence was completely consistent with that reported in GenBank.The enhanced green fluorescence protein was observed in HUVECs after 48 hours.Transfection efficiency was 18.6%?1.6%.The translocation was observed.Conclusion The eukaryotic expression plasmid is successfullyconstructed and transfered into HUVECs,the translocation was identified.It is a potential tool for screening HUVECs stably expressing human protein kinase C ?2 and isolating protein complex.

Objective:To summarize the allergic mechanism caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection (TCMI) to provide some references for perfecting Good Laboratory Practice(GLP) of TCMI.Method:The related iteratures in data bases at home and abroad were reviewed,and the present experimental research methods about allergies were referred to to have a view of future studies.Result:The allergic mechanism of TCMI was mostly antigen-antibody reaction, part of which was anaphylactoid reaction.The method of the evaluation of allergy caused by TCMI only was animal experiments, but there were still some allergies caused by TCMI after the evaluation with this method.The present experimental research methods indicated that the detection of mediators of inflammation and FCM(Flow Cytometry) could be used to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI.Conclusion:More attention should be paid to allergies caused by TCMI for its complicated mechanism and frequent occurrences in clinic.It may be an effective way to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI with several methods including in vivo and in vitro.
