To evaluate the measurement uncertainty of 23 items of clinical biochemistry. Internal quality control and external quality assessment were used to determine the uncertainty and standard uncertainty for the 23 items detected by Hitachi 7600 automatic biochemical analyzer. The uncertainties met the requirements of CLIA'88 for allowable error before correction except those of Cl-, P, TCH and TG, and correction made those of P, TCH and TG satisfy the requirements. The top-down method contributes to the understanding of the uncertainty of clinical biochemical items, while further efforts have to be performed for the uncertainty assessment standard.

In-depth application of the combination of theory and practice is one of the keys to improve the clinical undergraduate teaching quality of clinical laboratory diagnosis.Xuanwu Hospital used ISO15189 standards as a guide to make students fully participate in establishing performance verification and recording registration form,partly participate in the gage calibration,external quality assessment and inter-laboratory comparison etc.It also used the combined form of practice with teaching to make students learn the file writing and the equipment calibration.An orderly teaching model composed of knowledge reserve,file learning,calibration and verification was established,which was a closed-loop system that enabled students to become more deeply and extensively involved in the system and more deeply understand the connotation of clinical laboratory quality.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance of isolates from clinical patients, tap water systems, and food. Methods: Ninety isolates were obtained from Ma'anshan, Anhui province, China, and subjected to multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) with six housekeeping genes. Their taxonomy was investigated using concatenated sequences, while their resistance to 12 antibiotics was evaluated. Ten putative virulence factors and several resistance genes were identified by PCR and sequencing. Results: The 90 isolates were divided into 84 sequence types, 80 of which were novel, indicating high genetic diversity. The isolates were classified into eight different species. PCR assays identified virulence genes in the isolates, with the enterotoxin and hemolysin genes , , , and found in 47 (52.2%), 13 (14.4%), 22 (24.4%), and 12 (13.3%) of the isolates, respectively. The majority of the isolates (≥ 90%) were susceptible to aztreonam, imipenem, cefepime, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin. However, several resistance genes were detected in the isolates, as well as a new variant. Conclusions Sequence type, virulence properties, and antibiotic resistance vary in isolates from clinical patients, tap water systems, and food.
