Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) was coupled with fluorescent microspheres lateral flow assay (FM-LFA) for rapid detection of S.choleraesuis in this study.The target bacteria were firstly enriched from sample by immunomagnetic beads (IMBs),then eluted by heat treatment and detected by fluorescent microspheres lateral flow test strip.The IMBs was labeled with 30 μg/mg antibody,and the capture efficiency was greater than 90％ against 102-106 CFU/mL of S.choleraesuis with great specificity.The immunofluorescent microspheres were prepared by coupling 300 μg of 11 D8-D4 monoclonal antibody with 1 mg of fluorescent microspheres at pH 6.Monoclonal antibody 5F11-B11 (2.0 mg/mL) and donkey anti-mouse IgG (1.0 mg/mL) were sprayed on nitrocellulose membrane as test line and control line,respectively.The FM-LFA based on IMS was used to detect S.choleraesuis in PBS and milk.The limits of detection in PBS buffer and milk were 1.5×105 CFU/mL and 7.6×105 CFU/mL respectively,which were 10 and 200 times lower than that of traditional fluorescent microspheres lateral flow assay,respectively.The results showed that the method,which could enrich S.choleraesuis in milk effectively,could avoid matrix interference and improve the detection sensitivity,thus had a good application prospect.

In this study, HRP or FeCl3were used as the catalysts in MTT, TMB and Mino reaction system, the effects of carnosine on the oxidation reaction were evaluated respectively. Indeed, carnosine was a pro-oxidant in luminol reaction, however an anti-oxidant in MTT assay. Once TMB was its substrate, carnosine was neutral in oxi-dation. Thus, it is supposed that the oxidative property of carnosine depends on the substrates.

Objective:To analyze the allocation of chief examining physicians in health examination (management) institutions in 2019.Methods:A current situation study. Using a census method, a questionnaire survey was conducted to collect basic information (such as institution name, address, nature, affiliation, category, and level) and the allocation of chief physicians (such as gender, year of birth, full-time or part-time, type of practice, level of professional title, and years of engagement in health examination and management work) of 5 428 health examination (management) institutions in 2019. The collected data were statistically analyzed using chi-square test.Results:In terms of the type of practice of chief physicians, the proportions of internal medicine physicians in public and privately-run institutions was 72.84% and 68.23%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference in distribution ( χ2=19.632, P<0.05); the proportions of surgeons was 27.16% and 31.77%, respectively. The proportions of internal medicine physicians in third-, second-, first-, and unclassified-level institutions was 75.76%, 69.14%, 68.60%, and 68.78%, respectively; the proportions of surgeons was 24.24%, 30.56%, 31.40%, and 31.22%, respectively; with a statistically significant difference in distribution ( χ2=47.682, P<0.05). In terms of the level of professional title of chief physicians, the proportions of associate senior physicians in public and privately-run institutions was 69.56% and 73.66%, respectively, and the proportions of senior physicians was 30.44% and 26.34%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference in distribution ( χ2=15.276, P<0.05); the proportions of associate senior physicians in third-, second-, first-, and unclassified-level institutions was 62.72%, 75.55%, 78.40%, and 74.51%, respectively, with the proportions of senior physicians being 37.28%, 24.45%, 21.60%, and 25.49%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference in distribution ( χ2=168.462, P<0.05). The average number of chief physicians per institution in China was 1.67, with the highest number in the North China (2.10) and the lowest number in the Southwest region (1.49). The compliance rate of chief physicians with qualifications was 33.37% nationwide, with only the North China (48.64%) and the East China (37.05%) surpassing the national average, and the lowest rate was in the Northeast region (24.01%). Conclusions:There are regional differences in the allocation of chief examining physicians in China, and the uneven and insufficient development of their skills and abilities remains a prominent contradiction.

Objective:To further evaluate the long-term predictive value of HPV test in cervical cancer screening.Methods:To search PubMed and Web of Science databases by computer.The studies conducted HPV-based screening program and followed up for more than 3 years were included.After data extraction,the risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN) grade Ⅱ or worse(CIN Ⅱ +),CIN gradeⅢ or worse(CIN Ⅲ +),and cervical cancer was evaluated through the pooled cumulative incidence and odds ratio(OR) values among women with different baseline test results.Results:Finally,26 cohort studies were included.Compared to cytology negative,negative for HPV test was associated with significantly lower incidence of cervical diseases within 3 years (CIN Ⅱ +:OR =0.500,P ＜ 0.001;CIN Ⅲ+:OR =0.377,P ＜ 0.001;cervical cancer:OR =0.546,P ＜ 0.001).The 5-year pooled cumulative incidence of CIN Ⅱ +,CIN Ⅲ + and cervical cancer in HPV negative women was lower than 3-year detection rates in cytology negative women(CIN Ⅱ +:0.47％ vs 0.60％;CINⅢ +:0.15％ vs 0.20％;cervical cancer:0.016％ vs 0.020％),while the OR values had no significant difference.Conclusions:We recommend that HPV test using alone can be considered as an alternative strategy for cervical cancer screening with five-year screening interval.

Starch is the predominant compound in bulb scales, and previous studies have shown that bulblet development is closely associated with starch enrichment. However, how starch synthesis affects bulbification at the molecular level is unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that
