According to the project of personnel cultivation in 21st century,we have increased interdisciplinary comprehensive experimental courses to intensify the practical education,optimize operating model and teaching method of experimental courses.Experimental education must be strengthened in order to culture students' creativity.

Industrial culture media for cultivation of marine microalgae Nannochloropsis oculata was optimized by using Random Design software. High eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) content was obtained over 40% of total fatty acid, and high average specific growth rate of 0.32d -1 was obtained in cells grown in the selected Formula 1. Mass cultivation of this species was practiced in indoor open raceway ponds of 6.12 m 2 and 28.02 m 2, and in outdoor open pond of 83.50 m 2 during May and June in 1999. The average area yield of biomass were obtained at 2.77, 1.62 and 2.52 g /m 2?d, and in October, 1.09 g/ m 2?d was obtained in 83.5m 2 outdoor pond, and the harvest algae powder contained 49.50% of protein, 20.30% of total lipid and 3.00% of EPA of dry weight. With high temperature tolerant species during August in 2000, the average area yield of biomass were increased to 5.44?9.96 and 7.66 g/ m 2?d in above ponds, respectively and 2.50% of EPA of dry weight was contained in the powder. It is indicated that the industrialized cultivation of Nannochloropsis oculata rich in EPA is completely doable on practice, and the algal powder was a good raw material as single cell protein and development of EPA rich products.

Objective To analyze and discuss the effects of preserving the intercostobrachial nerve(ICBN)in modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer. Methods A total of 80 patients with breast cancer were randomly divided into the observation group and control group(n = 40 in each). The ICBN in the observation group were reserved and it was removed in the control group. Operation time,the number of lymph nodes,blood loss and complication rates were compared between groups. Two groups of patients were followed up for abnormal sensory function and relapse and metastasis. Results There were no differences in the operation time,the number of dissected lymph nodes and blood loss(P > 0. 05). There was no difference in complication rate(12. 50% vs 15. 00% )between the observation group and control group(P > 0. 05). There were significant differences in the incidence of abnormal sensory function at the first week(10. 00% vs 52. 50% ),the first month(5. 00% vs 47. 50% ),the third month(2. 50%vs 45. 50% ),the sixth month(2. 50% vs 37. 50% ),and the twelfth month(0. 00% vs 27. 50% )after op-eration between the observation group and control group(P < 0. 05). During the one-year follow-up peri-od,there was no relapse or metastasis. Conclusion Preserving ICBN in modified radical mastectomy can effectively reduce the incidence of abnormal sensory function of the upper limb.

Objective To explore and summarize the heart-shape anastomosis for hirschsprung′s disease .Methods Before the operation,the colon was cleaned thoroughly ,31 cases of this group (8 month-6 years old)underwent colonic pull-through and the dilated segment of colon was pulled out and resected.Normal colon and lower segment of rectum′s stomosis were stomosed as heart-shape (higher anterior and lower posterior).After replacing the colon and stomosis ,close the abdomen layer by layer.Results All 31 cases anus sphincter muscle were retained at most degree,so that retained their function of normal defecation .All 31 cases were healed and discharged, without one case with early complications as stomosis fistila,et al.No stomosis stenosis or other late period complication were found in 24 cases with long period follow-up.Conclusions Heart-shape stomosis is a good method for hirschsprung′s disease,especially fitful to the common type and short-segment type and long-segment type with diseased part in sigmoid colon .This method is easy,convenient,no special equipment was needed,easy to be publicized.

Objective To determine the normal ranges of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP) in normal children and children with symptoms of heart failure(HF),and to study their clinical implications.Methods Concentrations of serum NT-proBNP were determined in 80 normal children and 70 children with clinical symptoms of HF.Venous blood was taken in each subject,and plasma NT-proBNP was determined by ELISA method.Eighty normal children included 40 boys and 40 girls.Their ages ranged from 1 to 16 years old.Seventy children with HF were divided into two groups.The first group(n=45,21 males,24 females) included children with symptoms of HF caused by dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM).Their ages ranged from 1 to 16 years,and they had a left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) of less than 50%.The second group(n=25,11 male,14 female) consisted of children with symptoms of HF due to ventricular septal defect(VSD).Their ages ranged from 1 to 16 years,and they had an LVEF of 51%-78%.The serum NT-pro BNP levels were determined by ELISA method and LVEF was measured by echocardiography and clinical symptom score of heart failure was defined by using Ross Score.Results Serum concentration of NT-proBNP was 223.05 fmol/mL in normal children from 1 to 16 years old.NT-proBNP levels did not show a significant age-related or sex-related differences.In children with HF,the plasma NT-proBNP levels were significantly elevated(mean:1353.3 fmol/mL) compared to normal children(t=8.964 P

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) on pulmonary function in post-thoracotomy patients.Methods33 ASA Ⅰ～Ⅱ patients undergoing selective esophagectomy were randomly divided into the PCEA group (n=16, treated with morphine plus bupivacaine) and PCIA group (n=17, treated with morphine plus droperidol) for 3 days postoperatively. Pulmonary function indices including respiratory rate (RR), tidal volume (Vt), vital capacity (Vc) and pulse oximetry (SpO2) were recorded before operation and on the first 2 days after operation. Pain scores with visual analogue scale (VAS) at rest, deep breathing and with cough, and adverse effects were also recorded.ResultsRR increased, Vt , Vc and SpO2 decreased markedly in both groups postoperatively compared with the base line (P<0.01), but there were no significant differences between two groups. VAS scores were much lower in PCEA group, especially, when the patient was at deep breathing or during coughing (P<0.001).ConclusionPCEA is superior to PCIA in pain relief, but contributes no more than PCIA in improving pulmonary function in post-thoracotomy patients.

Objective To evaluate the value of serologic teats in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis by conducting a seroprevalence survey for anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 antibodies.Methods A total of 72 consecutive primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) patients with or without Sj(o)gren's syndrome (SS) and 50 patho logic controls were studied.Antibodies were tested by ELISA assays with recombinant spl00 and purified gp210.Results The positive rates of anti-gp210 detected by ELISA was 31.1% and 45.5% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among SS and virus hepatitis patients,none had anti-gp210 antibody (P＜0.01).The prevalence of anti-gp210 was similar in PBC patients with and without SS.The positive rates of an ti-sp100 detected by ELISA was 14.8% and 18.2% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among the patients with SS,only 3.3% was positive for anti-sp100,but none had anti-sp100 reactivity in virus hep atitis patients.The prevalence of anti-sp100 was not significantly different between PBC and SS groups. Conclusion Anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 are highly specific for PBC.The sensitivity of anti-gp210 and anti sp100 is 31.1% and 14.8% respectively.They may be helpful in the diagnosis of PBC.
