A pyelonephritis model of mouse is made by c. albicans infection. The determination of im-mune functions in model show that, both proliferation response of T cell to ConA and IL-2 activ-iting of spleenocytes of model animal to inductionwith ConA increased at 30 days after injected.The proliferation response of B cell to stimulation with LPS inhanced from 15 through 30 days,primary Ab response of model animal to SRBC stimulation inhanced between 15-30 days afterimmunization. DTH response to stimulation with c. albicans protein Ag raised since 15 days andup to peak at 30 days. Agglutination titer of serum raised up 15 days, and remained at higherlevel untill 30 days.

Objective Using apomorphine, a potent dopamine receptor agonist and rotating T-maze, the effect of apomorphine on the visual discrimination learning and reversal learning in rats was investigated. Methods All rats were trained in a visual discrimination task (food reward and light stimulus) in rotating T-maze. After reaching the acquisition criterion, rats were trained in a reversal task (food reward and without light stimulus) in the same maze. During the period of visual discrimination task, apomorphine was administrated either 30 minutes prior to learning or after learning immediately. Results The results showed that apomorphine, which was given either 30 minutes prior to visual discrimination learning or after learning, could impair the acquisition of discrimination learning( 259.20±26.29 and 264.00±16.97, compared to 168.00±16.97 and 163.20±20.08) and apomorphine, which was given only after visual discrimination learning, could impair the acquisition of reversal learning (451.20±39.44 compared to 360.00±29.39). Conclusion The results showed that apomorphine, which was given either 30 minutes prior to visual discrimination learning or after learning, could impair the acquisition of discrimination learning and apomorphine, which was given only after visual discrimination learning, could impair the acquisition of reversal learning.

Objective To know the status of microbial contamination in filtrated water and edible ice used in food processing,and to provide experimental basis for the management of HACCP of filtrated water and edible ice. Methods The samples of water and ice were collected from a western style restaurant in Changchun. The microbial indicators were tested based on Standard Examination Methods for Drinking Water(2001). Results Results In the third quarter, 37.8%, 32.4%, 13.5% of total bacterium counts, total coliform counts, feces coliform counts of the water samples was unqualified. Conclusion The filtrated water and edible ice used in restaurants can be contaminated by microbes in degree. It is necessary for HACCP of filtrated water involved coliform counts contamination to carry out dynamic monitoring.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous blood purification ( CBP) on the level of blood lactic acid and 6 h lactic clearance in the patients with severe sepsis. Methods 48 patients with severe sepsis were cho-sen in ICU, and they were randomly divided into two groups: control group ( n=20 ) and CBP group ( n=28 ) . Their arterial blood lactic acid level was tested on admission and was retested 6, 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment. The patients’6 h blood lactic clearance rate and the corresponding APACHEIIscore were calculated. The level of arterial blood lactic acid and the score of APACHE IIwere compared at different time. 6 h blood lactic clearance, the period of stay in ICU and the 28-days mortality were compared too. Results The level of lactic acid and the score of APACHE II after 24 h were lower in CBP group, and the period of stay in ICU was shorter in CBP group than that in control group at different time ( P<0.05 ) . 6 h blood lactic clearance was higher than that in control group (P<0.05). Moreover, the 28-days mortality had no significant difference in CBP group. Conclusion The CBP plays an important role in clearing the blood lactic acid and it can reduce the severity of the sepsis as well as shorten the period of stay in ICU.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the percutaneous lumbar puncture to treat sciatica caused by lumbar disc herniation.Methods 75 cases of lumbar disc herniation with significant clinical signs were confirmed by CT scan. The technique of the percutaneous lumbar puncture led the needle to approach nerve root and injected medicine diffusing into extraduramater, and then relieved the symptom of sciatica. Results The rate of success of percutaneous lumbar puncture guided by CT reached to 100%. After two weeks of follow up, the symptom of pain was obviously improved and disappeared in 63.3% cases. There were 23.0% cases needed a second proceduse, and no change was obsesved in 9.3% cases.Conclusions The percutaneous lumbar puncture guided by CT to treat sciatica resulted from lumbar disc herniation is one of the safe ,reliable,effective new methods with no complication. The long term effectiveness is still in need of investigation.

Objective To synthesize 99Tcm- (hydrazinonictinamide- [Lys3] -bombesin) (tricine)(trisodium triphenylphosphine-3,3',3"-trisulfonate) ((HYNIC-[Lys3]-BBS) (tricine) (TPPTS)) and evaluate its biodistribution and binding capability with tumor tissue in Balb/c nude mice bearing human pancreatic cancer xenografts. Methods HYNIC was conjugated to the [Lys3] -BBS at pH = 9.0 with SnCl2 as reducing agent and both tricine and TPPTS as coligands for 99Tcm-labeling. 99Tcm-HYNIC-[Lys3]-BBS)(tricine) (TPPTS) was purified by Sep-Pak C18 cartridge and was analysed by HPLC. The radiochemical purity and radiolabeling yield were measured. The stability of 99Tcm-(HYNIC-[Lys3]-BBS) (tricine)(TPPTS) in serum, biodistribution (% ID/g) in the normal mice and imaging of the Balb/c nude mice bearing human pancreatic cancer xenografts in vivo were studied. Results The radiolabeling yield was (90 ±2)% and the radiochemical purity was over 95%. The radiochemical purity after 4 h in serum was over 85%. The distribution in normal mice showed rapid clearance from blood (the uptake was (0.07 ±0.01) %ID/g at 2 h postinjection). 99Tcm-(HYNIC-[Lys3]-BBS) (tricine) (TPPTS) was excreted mainly via the kidney with little radioactivity accumulation in the liver and gastrointestinal tract (the uptake of liver, stomach, intestine was (0.27 ±0.03), (0.06 ±0.03), (0.04 ±0.00) %ID/g at 2 h postinjection). Marked uptake of radioactivity was found in tumor tissue of the Balb/c nude mice bearing human pancreatic cancer with maximum T/NT ratio of 3.71 ± 0.57 at 2 h postinjection. Conclusions 99Tcm-(HYNIC-[Lys3]-BBS)(tricine) (TPPTS) can be easily prepared with high radiolabeling yield and radiochemical purity. The stability in serum and good biodistribution charateristics make it useful for the diagnosis of human pancreatic cancer with over-expression of the gastric-releasing peptide(GRP) receptor.

On the background of internationalization for higher education,we have reformed the educational model for bachelor students majoring in public health laboratory science and quarantine.The exploration and pilot study are focused on educational principles,curriculum planning,teaching patterns,experiments and practice,and teachem training.The four teaching strategies have been firstly recommended as follows:laying the strongest foundation of chemistry,expanding quarantine-related curricula for increasing quarantine capability,making full use of strength of clinical laboratory medicine,emphasizing English application.The curricula structure is refined and more social supporting resources have been got to make globalization to cultivate more health inspection and quarantine talents with multidisciplinary knowledge,abilities and strong adaptability.

AIM: To observe the difference of cerebral injury following ischemia/reperfusion and mRNA expression of TGF-β1 between diabetic and non-diabetic rats.METHODS: At first, Wistar rats were divided into two groups,non-diabetes and diabetes, and then two groups followed by sham, middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) 2h and reperfusion 24 h after MCAO 2 h respectively. TGF-β1 mRNA expression was measured by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR); Cerebral damage was evaluated by histopathology.RESULTS: In the same condition of ischemia or ischemia/reperfusion, injuried area enlarged in DM groups; The expression level of TGF-β1 mRNA increased at the time of 2 h after MCAO in non-diabetic group and diabetic group, especialy significantly in non-diabetic group with MCAO 2 h, and decreased at the time of reperfusion 24 h after MCAO 2 h, but still higher than that in the sham group.CONCLUSION: Diabetes mellitus exacerbated brain lesion following ischemia/repefusion, increased TGF-β1 mRNA expresion after MCAO may be an anti-injury reaction,and anti-injury ability is decreased under diabetic condition
