Nitrogen removal techniques based on Anammox process are developing rapidly these years. The distribution and diversity of Anammox have become important research directions. A variety of Anammox have been detected till now, of which only Kuenenia and Brocadia are often detected in wastewater treatment systems. In addition, in a single niche there is only one type of Anammox bacteria. However, the distribution mechanism and transformation of Anammox bacteria in different niches are still ambiguous. Therefore, the distribution of Anammox in various conditions was summarized and analyzed in this article. And the key factors influencing the distribution of Anammox were concluded, including substrate concentration and the specific growth rate, sludge properties and microbial niche, the joint action and influence of multiple factors. The engineering significance research on the distribution and influencing factors of Anammox bacteria in the sewage system and proposed research prospects were expounded.

Objective To compare transabdominal and transcervical chorionic villus sampling (TC-CVS) in application for prenatal diagnosis, and to summarize the experience of transabdominal chorionlc villus sampling (TA-CVS). Methods One hundred and nine TA-CVS between April 2005 and November 2007 and 69 TC-CVS between August 1999 and March 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Results ( 1 ) The mean gestational age was (12.4±1.9) weeks at TA-CVS and (8.8±1.2) weeks at TC-CVS (P< 0.01). (2) Compared with TC-CVS, punctures were fewer (1.4±0.5) and (1.1±0.4) and specimen amount was more (9±5) mg and (17±5) mg in TA-CVS, and the success rate of one puncture (62.3% vs 87.2% ) was higher in TA-CVS. (3)Among the cases followed up, the incidence of vaginal bleeding(TA-CVS: 2 eases, 2.0% ; TC-CVS: 2 cases, 6.1% ) and spontaneous abortion (TA-CVS: 4 cases, 4.0%; TC-CVS: 1 cases, 3.0%) were not significantly different between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion TA-CVS appears to be a good method for early prenatal diagnosis with a wide range of indications, high success rate and sufficient specimen.
