Objective:To evaluate the effects of dibutyl phthalate on rat sperm production and quality. Methods:Totally 150 male rats were randomly divided into the low dose group (50 mg·kg-1), the middle dose group (200 mg·kg-1), the high dose group (1 000 mg·kg-1 ) , the blank control group and the solvent control group ( peanut oil as the control) with 30 ones in each. After continu-ous administration for every 30 days, 10 rats from each group were anatomized, the weight of testes and epididymides were determined, and one side of epididymis was used to carry out the sperm analysis including counting, survival rate and morphology. Results:After intragastric administration for 90 days, the sperm count and survival rate, the weight of testis and epididymis and organ coefficient in the middle dose group and high dose group were decreased significantly(P<0. 05 or 0. 01). Conclusion:The long-term administration of dibutyl phthalate at high dose exhibits notable toxicity on rat reproductive function.

The total concentration for membrane protein was de-tected by BCA method,[3H]QNB and [35 S]GTP?S binding experiment as perfomed to study the function of m3AChR-G11 fusion protein. Results The expression level of m3AChR-G11 was 7. 76 ? 10 -9 mol?g -1. The affinity of GDP to G11 partner changed in the presence of different muscarinic ligands. IC50 values of GDP in the presence of ACh,Pilo,CCh,MCN-A-343,Atro,4-Damp and Dafi were 82. 2,93. 70,12. 10,14. 30, 1. 93,1. 37,0. 72 ? 10 -6 mol ? L -1 respectively,and that in the absence of muscarinic was 1. 99 ? 10 -6 mol ?L-1.Concluslons The m3AChR-G11 fusion protein has the pharmacological specificity of m3 receptor and the efficient coupling interaction of the two partners. Affinity of GDP to ligand-bound fusion protein represents the species of muscarinic ligands. This is helpful in screening and detecting the new specific ligands to muscarinic receptors.

Objective: To assay the content and stability of vitamin C(VC) in serum by a simple, specific method. Methods: Serum samples were extracted by metaphosphoric acid, and analyzed on a column C 18 of HPLC with DAD detector at 234 nm. Mobile phase was 100 mmol/L KH 2PO 4, pH3.00. The flow rate was 1 ml/min. Results: Under this condition, the retention time of VC was 5.76 min. The within run and between run reproducibilities tests were 0.42% and 2.11% respectively, and the recovery rate ranged from 82% to 88.5%. Stored at -70 ℃ and compared to that of its metaphosphoric acid extract, serum VC content was stable only for two days, and then decreased rapidly, whereas it did not decrease in metaphosphoric acid extract until the fifth day. Conclusion: A simple, sensitive and reliable method of HPLC with DAD detector is established for measuring VC in either serum or fruit, such as orange juice. VC should be determined immediately or should be extracted with metaphosphoric acid as soon as possible, then the extracts are kept at -70 ℃, and analysed within 5 d.
