A method based on ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( UPLC-MS/MS) has been proposed for the determination of coccidiostat residues in chicken skin and fat. The sample was extracted with the combination of methanol, acetonitrile, and acetic acid, and cleaned-up by Sep-Pak tC18 solid phase extraction cartridge. Data acquisition under positive electrospray mode was performed by applying multiple reaction monitoring for both identification and quantification. The limits of detection and quantification for halofuginone and robenidine were 7 μg/kg and 20 μg/kg, respectively. The limit of detection of salinomycin, monensin, narasin, maduramicin, and lasalocid was 5 μg/kg, and limit of quantification was 15 μg/kg. The recovery was 75% to 110% in the spiked concentration range from 15 μg/kg to 200 μg/kg, with intra-day precision lower than 12. 8%, and inter-day precision lower than 13 . 4%.

Objective To investigate the effect of the balloon Bionic midwifery on the delivery outcomes and to analyze the clinical value.Methods 1 683 parturients from June 2014 to May 2015 were selected.They were randomly divided into observation group (832 cases,applied balloon Bionic Midwifery) and control group 851 cases.We compared the labor,the postpartum hemorrhage,the outcomes of pregnancy and the rate of survival of neonates of the two groups.Results The first and second stage as well as the total stage of labors of the observation group were lower than the control group (P＜0.01);Also,the rate of cesarean delivery and the hemorrhage together with the asphyxia of neonates were lower than the control group (P＜0.01).However,the rate of vaginal delivery was higher than the control group (P ＜0.05).The differences between them had a great statistical significance.Conclusions The balloon bionic midwifery technology has an advantage in reducing the rate of cesarean delivery and the maternal pain of pregnant women as well as the maternal complications.It is an effective and safe midwifery technology.So it has a great value of spreading in clinical trials.

Objective To compare broth microdilution and agar dilution methods for in vitro testing of activities of fluconazole,ketoconazole and itraconazole against clinical Malassezia isolates.Methods Broth microdilution and agar dilution methods were used to determine the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC)of fluconazole,ketoconazole and itraconazole for 27 clinical strains(5 species)of Malassezia.Results The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC)ranges of fluconazole,ketoconazole and itraconazole were 0.25-≥64 mg/L,≤0.03-0.5 mg/L and ≤0.03-0.125 mg/L respectively as shown by broth microdilution method,2-≥64 mg/L,≤0.03-0.5 mg/L and ≤0.03-0.25 mg/L respectively as revealed by agar dilution method.Both methods demonstrated that itraconazole possessed the strongest activity against Malassezia species,followed by ketoconazole and fluconazole.The agreement rate in MICs between the two methods was 78.8％,85.2％ and 88.9％,respectively for fluconazole,ketoconazole and itraconazole,with the intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs)being 0.88,0.80 and 0.76 respectively.Conclusions Fluconazole,ketoconazole and itraconazole are highly active against Malassezia species in vitro,and itraconazole is the most active.Broth microdilution and agar dilution method coincide well in,and are applicable for,the antifungal susceptibility testing of Malassezia species in vitro.

Invasive fungal infections (IFI) are a kind of the most severe complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), Candida and Aspergillus are common causes. Because of immunosuppressive therapy, ablative conditioning regimen, acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease, long-term treatment of broad-spectrum antibiotics and cytomegalovirus infection, IFI has increased in the past few years. Invasive mould infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HSCT recipients. Methods for early diagnosis of IFI include clinical and laboratory examinations, as well as characteristic radiography. Voriconazole is the first-line antifungal agent for prevention of IFI. Combination therapy of two antifungal compounds such as azoles or amphotericin B with echinocandins have shown a good effectiveness and may be a promising future strategy for antifungal treatment. In this review, the early diagnosis and treatment of IFI in HSCT recipients are summarized. As for early diagnosis of IFI, the laboratory diagnosis techniques such as GM test, G test and PCR techniques are discussed. As for prophylaxis and treatment of IFI, the prophylaxis treatment, empirical treatment, preemptive treatment, targeted treatment, combined treatment and immunologic treatment are discussed.

Objective To investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus associated with bloodstream infection in hospital. Methods 47 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from bloodstream in PLA General Hospital were collected from January 2006 to December 2008. Susceptibility of the strains to 11 antimicrobial agents was detected and DNA homology of them was analyzed with Rep-based DiversiLab~(TM) Microbial Typing System. Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)gene was determined by PCR. For methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains,the genotypes of SCCmec were determined and ST239 clone was screened with multiplex PCR. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was used to determine the STs of the selected isolates. Results In the 47 Staphylococcus aureus isolated from blood,methicillin-resistant strains accounted for 51.1%,all belonged to SCCmec Ⅲ type,with only 2 pvl gene positive strains identified. 12 different patterns (A-L) were found among 47 strains with Rep-PCR. All MRSA strains clustered in the A and B subtypes. Conclusion Most MRSA strains isolated from blood in PLA General Hospital belonged to ST239-MRSA-SCCmec Ⅲ clone. DiversiLab~(TM) Microbial Typing System could provide a rapid and effective method to investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus in the hospital settings.

Objective To study antibiotic resistance phenotypes and genotypes of extended spectrum ?-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC ?-lactamase-producing Klebsiella oxytoca isolated from specimens of respiratory tract in children.Methods Bacterial isolates were identified by API or VITEK32. Agar dilution was used for antibiotic susceptibility test,and ESBLs and AmpC were detected by confirmatory test recommended by CLSI/NCCLS and by 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APB) disk potentiation test, respectively.Microarray was used to determine the genotypes of ESBLs and AmpC ?-lactamases.Genotypes of Klebsiella oxytoca were determined by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC)- PCR.Results ESBLs were positive in 129 out of 165 isolates (78.2%).Both ESBLs and AmpC ?- lactamases were positive in 16 out of 165 isolates (9.7%).AmpC ?-lactamase alone producer was not detected in term of phenotype and genotype.CTX-M was the most common type of ESBLs and DHA was the only type of AmpC ?-lactamase in these isolates.Most antibiotic resistant strains of Klebsiella oxytoca possessed the same genotype by ERIC-PCR.Although all strains were susceptible to carbpenem,Klebsiella oxytoca with ?-lactamases were more resistant to other antibiotic agents than those without ?- lactamases.Conclusions There is high prevalence of ESBLs production among Klebsiella oxytoca isolated from children in Urumqi.The main genotypes of ESBLs and AmpC ?-lactamases are CTX-M and DHA.
