Objective To discuss interventional treatment technique for benign ureteral strictures. Methods A total of 19 cases with 20 benign ureteral strictures were treated with balloon dilatation and double-pigtail ureteral stent placement. Results Among 19 caces,16 were succeeded in a rate of 84.2%.The three failure cases included one of compression by aberrant vessels,one by compression of fibrous-strings and the last one due to tortuosity of the ureter.Re-examinations,by intravenous urography and B ultrasound were carried out in 16 successors,showed gradually release of hydro-nephrosis and renal function improvement.Iatrogenic foreign body ocurred in 2 cases,caused by the protruding tail of stent which had been taken out under ureteroscopy. Conclusions Interventional technique for benign ureteral strictures possesses adventages with mild injury,simple operation,and a new effective method.

To explore the molecular characteristics of Streptococcus suis serotype 2(ss2) isolated in Zhejiang province by deciding the variation loci and its variation frequency of Cps2J gene.The total DNA of 9 strains of ss2 isolated in Zhejiang province were extracted and amplifed by PCR. Then,the Cps2J fragments were cloned into plasmid carrier and completely sequenced after purification.Finally,the sequence results of all 9 ss2 isolates were compared with those obtained by other studies around the world.It was found that the open reading fragments of Cps2J in 9 SS2 isolates encoding 333 amino acids were 999 bp in length.Comparisons of this region among ss2 isolates revealed a similarity of between 98.8% and 99.9%, while the homology to ss1 strains varied between 56.8% and 57.0%.Our study shows the sequences of complete Cps2J segment are fairly stable and all these 9 ss2 strains of different sources possibly have the same evolutionary origin.

To study and optimize the fermentation parameters for expressing human-like collagenⅡduring E. coli high-density fermentation. The effects of pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen and induction instant on the cell growth and human-like collagenⅡproduction were investigated to optimize the fermentation conditions. The results demonstrated that the following conditions were beneficial for cell growth and foreign gene expression, controlling pH in phase induction at 6.8 and initial pH at 6.5, maintaining fermentation temperature and dissolved oxygen concentration was controlled at 34?C and 20% respectively, and implementing induction at the later logarithmic growth phase. Under the optimized condition, the cell density and human-like collagenⅡyield could reach 88.4 g/L and 14.2 g/L, respectively.

This research adopted silt as the sample,and the five highest hydrogen production performing strains contained in the sample were isolated. The strain whose hydrogen production was the highest was identified as Enterobacter cloacae by the analysis of 16S rDNA sequencing and comparison. It is showed by Plackett-Burman Experimental Design that only glucose,citric buffer and reducing agent had significant effects on hydrogen production by Enterobacter cloacae FML-C1. The path of steepest ascent was undertaken to approach the optimal response region of those three factors. Central Composite Design(CCD) and Response Surface Methodology(RSM) were employed to investigate the interaction of the variables and to ascertain the optimal values of the factors,which finally led to the maximum hydrogen production(VH2) . The theoretical optimal medium conditions were:glucose 21.5 g/L,citric buffer 13.6 mL/L,reducing agent10.0 mL/L. The five tentative tests matched this model well. The final VH2 was up to 2347.4 mL/L,which was 127.42% enhanced in comparison to the original. The result shows that PB experiment design and RSM analytical method work well in selecting factors which have significant influences on the hydrogen production and,moreover,achieve the ideal optimal result.

Strains from the cellulose-containing environment were collected. Primary screening(by filter-paper Hutchison solid culture medium and sodium carboxymethylcellulose solid culture medium) and reelection(by filter-paper inorganic salt culture medium and sodium carboxymethylcellulosc Congo red coltnre medium) indicated that five strains obtained were best suited for high performance cellulose degradation. Determination of sodium carboxymethylcellulose activity(CMCA) and filter paper activity(FPA) was accomplished for each of the five. The strongest of the five in CMCA and FPA was applied to the production of cellulose bioethanol by separate hydrolysis and fermentation(SHF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation(SSF) respectively.

Objective To evaluate the two-stage repair in hypospadias cripples.Methods 35 patients with hypospadias cripples underwent two-stage repair.At the first stage,a full-thickness graft of skin or buccal mucosa was used for urethral plate reconstruction after the release of chordee.The second stage was performed 6 months after completion of the first stage.Tubularization of the replaced urethral plate was the preferred technique.Results There was no urethra stricture or “preplaced urethral plate ” atrophy.Fistula developed in 2 of 35 cases.Conclusion The twostaged technique was a useful strategy to deal with the myriad abnormalities encountered in crippled hypospadias.This technique could not only create a neourethra successfully,but also give the penis a near-normal shape and appearance.

Human-like collagen (HLC) was cross-linked with hyaluronic acid by genipin in different ratio. The concentrations of hyaluronic acid in the mixture were 0, 0.01%, 0.05% and 0.1%. The blood vessel tubular grafts were then fabricated by freeze-drying. Microstructure, element composite, mechanical properties, cytotoxicity grade, and biocompatibility of different vascular scaffold groups were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), tensile test, burst pressure experiment, cytotoxicity experiment, endothelial cells planted in blood vessel scaffolds and hypodermic embedding of mice. The results showed that HLC-HA (0.05%) tubular scaffold exhibited interconnected well-distributed and porous structure and porosity of 94.38%; achieved the desirable mechanical property with stress of (1000.8 +/- 7.9) kPa and burst pressure of (1058.6 +/- 8.2) kPa, hypocytotoxicity, favourable cytocompatibility, hisocompatibility and disposition of degradation.
