Objective To prepare medical chitosan microspheres used in blood lipid adsorption. Methods Medical chitosan microspheres were prepared by suspending chitosan in liquid paraffin, adding proportional glutaraldehyde as crosslinking agent and a small amount of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) to improve its flexibility. The blood lipid adsorption v/ere studied in a dynamic way. Results The medical chitosan microspheres containing a small amount of PVA were more effective in decreasing the contents of cholesterol(CH) , triglyceride(TG) , LDL in human serum. Conclusion The chitosan microspheres obtained by adding a small amount of PVA could be used as a desirable medical microsphere in the adsorption of blood lipids.

Objective To know the contents and changes situation of trace elements among children aged 0-6 years old in Chengdu are‐a .Methods The BH5100T atomic absorption spectrometry was adopted to detect the levels of trace elements Cu ,Zn ,Ca ,Mg ,Fe in 786 children aged 0-6 years old undergoing the physical examination in our hospital from April 2015 to November 2015 .The detection results were statistically analyzed .Results The deficiency rates of Cu ,Zn ,Ca ,Mg and Fe in Chengdu area were 0 .4% ,5 .0% ,18 .1% ,9 .5% and 8 .3% respectively ,in which the deficiency rates of Ca in children aged <1 ,1 ,2 ,3 ,≥ 4 years old were 47 .4% ,27 .5% ,12 .6% ,9 .9% and 11 .9% respectively ,indicating that the Ca deficiency rate in children < 1 years old was higher .The Ca deficiency rate had statistical differ‐ence among different age groups(P<0 .05) ,and there were no statistically significant differences in the deficiency rates of several trace ele‐ments among different age groups of male and female children .Conclusion The abnormality rate of trace elements among children aged 0-6 years old in Chengdu area is higher ,in which the Ca deficiency rate is highest ,meanwhile the Mg and Fe were lack too .The trace element content in children is closely related with the feeding habit .The 0-6 years old children in this area should pay attention to the supplement of trace elements ,especially supplement of Ca ,meanw hile breastfeeding is advocated .

Objective To investigate the apoptosis of cultured normal human hepatocyte HL-7702 cells induced by glycodeoxycholate(GCDC)and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods HL-7702 cells were incubated with various concentrations(100,150,200 and 250 ?mol/L)of GCDC.The changes of cellular morphology were observed under optical microscope.The apoptosis rate of HL-7702 was determined by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining.The changes of HL-7702 cell intracelluar \[Ca2+\]i were determined with Fluo-3/AM load technique.The mRNA expression levels of Bcl-2/Bax in HL-7702 cells were analyzed by RT-PCR.Results Typical apoptotic morphological changes were observed after HL-7702 cells had been treated with 150 ?mol/L GCDC for 24 h;HL-7702 cells could be induced to undergo apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner after 100,150,200,and 250 ?mol/L GCDC treatment for 24 hours.The apoptosis rates were(13.16?2.9)%,(20.3?3.0)%,(25.02?2.1)% and(45.02?3.5)%,which were markedly higher(P

Objective To discuss the application value of modified Hodge test(MHT) for screening carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.Methods The 24 Enterobacteriaceae reduced susceptibility to carbapenems were detected by MHT.At the same time,polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was used to detect carbapenemase genes of KPC,NDM,IMP,SIM and VIM.PCR products were sequenced and the results were compared with the sequences of Gen Bank database.Comprehensive analysis the application value of MHT and PCR to detect carbapenemase.Results Among these 24 strains,13 stains appeared to produce carbapenemase by MHT,5 positive strains were found to carry carbapenemase genes by PCR.By comparing with the sequences of Gen Bank database 1 strain were confirmed to KPC-2 and 4 strains were confirmed to IMP-4.We found that 4 strains of Enterobacteriaceae,detected carbapenemase by MHT and PCR at the same time.9 strains of MHT were positive,but we couldn′t detect the carbapenemase genes.1 strain of MHT was negative,but carbapenemase gene was found in the strain.Conclusion The value of MHT to screen carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae is necessary to further study.

Objective: To investigate the effect of zinc supplementation on expression of MT-1 and MT-2 mRNA in placenta and small intestine of pregnant rats. Method: Eighteen healthy pregnant SD rats were randomly divided into two groups,normal control (ZC) and zinc supplement group (ZS). Rats in both groups were fed the same normal diet. Rats in ZC group drank deionized water and those in ZS group drank the water supplemented with 1.26 mmol/L Zn. At gestational 9.5d and 17.5d, serum zinc was determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometer and the expression of MT-1 and MT-2 mRNA of placenta and small intestine was examined by RT-PCR. Results: Serum zinc levels at gestational 9.5d and 17.5d were higher in ZS group. Relative expression of both MT-1 and MT-2 mRNA in placenta, MT-1 mRNA at gestational 17.5d and MT-2 mRNA at each time point were higher in ZS group. At gestational 9.5d, there was no difference between two groups in expression of MT-1 mRNA. Conclusion: The expression of MT-1 and MT-2 mRNA in placenta and small intestine was up-regulated by dietary zinc supplementation during pregnancy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of zinc supplementation on the expression profile of zinc transporters mRNA in placenta and small intestine of pregnant rats.Method:Eighteen pregnant SD rats were randomly divided into normal control(ZC)and zinc supplement group(ZS).Rats in ZC group drank deionized distilled water while those in ZS group drank water supplemented with zinc of 1.26 mmol/L.Placenta and small intestine were taken at gestational day 9.5 and 17.5,respectively.The expression of ZnT1,2,5 and 6 mRNA was examined by RT-PCR.Results:At gestational D9.5,the expression of placental ZnT1,2 and small intestinal ZnT1,2,6 mRNA was up-regulated,and placental ZnT5 mRNA down-regulated by dietary zinc supplementation.Dietary zinc intake had no effect on the expression of placental ZnT6 and small intestinal ZT5 mRNA.At gestational D17.5,the expression of placental ZnT5 and 6 mRNA was up-regulated by dietary zinc supplementation,and dietary zinc had no effect on the expression of placental and small intestinal ZnT1,2 mRNA.The expression of ZnT5 mRNA at gestational D17.5 in both groups was not detectable.Conclusion:Dietary zinc supplementation during pregnancy has significant effect on the expression profile of ZnT 1,2,5 and 6mRNA in placenta and small intestine of pregnant rats.
