Fluorescent carbon quantum dots ( CQDs) were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal treatment of apple juice. Experiments showed that Hg2+could quench the fluorescence of the CQDs with specificity. Based on this phenomenon, a selective and sensitive sensor was constructed for Hg2+ detection. In a NaH2 PO4-Na2HPO4 buffer solution (pH 7. 0), their fluorescence intensity showed good linear relationship with the concentrations of Hg2+ from 5 to 100 nmol/L and 1 to 50 μmol/L, respectively, with the detection limit of 2. 3 nmol/L (S/N=3). Its practical application was further demonstrated by the detection of Hg2+ in real water samples.

Objective To discuss the relationship between various T lymphocyte subsets apoptosis and disease progression in chronic antiretroviral-naive HIV/AIDS patients. Methods Thirty-six chronic antiretrovi-ral-naive HIV-infected individuals as well as 16 healthy HIV-negative controls were performed in this study. Ac-cording to the CD4~+ T cell counts, all the patients were divided three groups: < 200/μl, 200-350/μl and > 350/μl. After the peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) were isolated, T lymphocyte subpopulations were determined by the expression of CD45RO and CD27, and the apoptosis of different T cell subsets were measured by Annexin V staining, then analyzed by flow cytometry. To investigate whether the apoptosis of T cells varied with the culture time in vitro, 4 healthy controls and 4 patients were chosen as subjects, and the lev-els of cell apoptosis were analyzed at the culture time points of 0, 3, 6, 12, 24 h. Results (1)The percenta-ges of the AnnexinV expression on CD4~+ and CD8~+ T cells and all the subsets in HIV/AIDS patients were sig-nificantly higher than that in the healthy controls (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences among the three HIV-infected patient groups(P>0.05). (2) No significant correlations were observed between the levels of apoptosis of all the T cells and subsets and total CD4~+ T cell counts(P>0.05) ,nor with the HIV viral load (P>0.05). (3)As the culture time prolonged in vitro, the levels of apoptosis and necrosis of CD4~6 T cells in HIV/AIDS patients were significantly higher than those in the healthy conlrols, and the CD4~+ T cells were more susceptible to apoptosis and necrosis compared with CD8~+ T cells. Conclusion The levels of T cell apoptosis in HIV/AIDS patients was significantly higher than those in the healthy controls, at the same time, CD4~+ T cells were more susceptible to apoptosis and necrosis compared with CD8~+ T cells, but no correlation was found between the T cell apoptsis and disease progression.
