Objective To know the implementary circs and short-dated effects of cooking stoves improvement in reducing fluoride level in the endemic fluorosis areas and to offer the background information and scientific basis for continuing the development of cooking stoves improvement in reducing fluoride level. Methods To do the surveys in the households, 769 families were selected and investigated from 38 000 peasant families in the program, by cluster sampling with 2% sample rate and 70 families were randomly selected from them, the fluoride levels in the air, foodstuff, non-staple food was determined. Results 98.7% of the families in the cooking stoves improvement areas could rightly use the improved stove. The fluoride levels in corn and hot peppers were greatly improved in county A compared with that in 2000, but the fluoride levels in the air, foodstuff, non-staple food still exceeded the standard limit, not all reached the national standard. Conclusion The headstream interventions measure in coal-burning type endemic fluorosis areas is effective. Controlling the fluoride pollution of capsicum and tea is necessary, the production methods must be improved. The health education and management should be strengthened for reducing fluoride level in the investigated areas.

Objective To investigate the catalysis of Co - Cu /SiO2 in oxidation of sodium percarbonate (SPC ) for o-nitrochlorobenzene. Methods The solution of o-nitrochlorobenzene was prepared, acetic acid was used to adjust acidity, sodium percarbonate was applied as the oxidant, the self-prepared Co-Cu/SiO2 was used as the catalyzer to catalyze the degradation reaction of o-nitrochlorobenzene and the effect of reaction condition on degradation was researched. Results In the condition of loading amount of metal was 5%, nCo:nCu= 4:1,nCo-Cu=1.90?10-3mol,nSPC=6.36?10-3 mol,cOCNB=50 mg/L and t=80 ℃,pH=4,the degradation efficiency of o-nitrochlorobenzen could reach 92% . Conclusion Co-Cu/SiO2 is efficient in catalyzing the oxidative degradation of sodium percarbonate for o-nitrochlorobenzene and is applicable to the waste water treatment for eliminating o-nitrochlorobenzene

Objective To study the effect of glutathione(GSH)on liver antioxidative function of microcystin‐LR(MC‐LR)‐in‐duced mice .Methods Forty healthy clean class KM 5‐week old mice were selected and divided into five groups by the random sam‐pling method ,including the norml saline control group ,GSH control group ,MC‐LR group ,MC‐LR+low dose GSH group and MC‐LR+high dose GSH group ,8 cases in each group ,half male and half female .The experiment lasted for 15 d by intraperitoneal injec‐tion of MC‐LR ,then the liver histopathological changes ,liver tissue activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) ,glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px)and content of malondialdehyde(MDA) were detected .Results Compared with the normal saline control group ,liver cell GSH level ,SOD and GSH‐Px activities in the MC‐LR group were significantly decreased (P<0 .05) ,while the MDA level was sig‐nificantly increased (P<0 .05) .Compared with the MC‐LR group ,the GSH level ,SOD and GSH‐Px activities in the MC‐LR+low dose GSH group and MC‐LR+high dose GSH group were significantly increased (P<0 .05) ,while the MDA level was significant‐ly decreased(PP<0 .05) .Conclusion The GSH intervention can alleviate MC‐LR induced mouse liver oxidative toxicity and has protective effect on the liver to some extent .
