OBJECTIVETo develop a RT-PCR method for a rapid and sensitive detection of Salmonella in poultry samples.

METHODSThe RT-PCR method was established and its specificity was testified on the basis of invA gene. Serial 10-fold diluted pure suspension culture of CMCC 50041 was detected by RT-PCR, the standard curve was constructed and the amplification efficiency was calculated. Artificially contaminated experiment was done, six artificially-inoculated samples containing final concentration of Salmonella CMCC 50041 (1, 10, 10(2), 10(3), 10(4), 10(5) and 10(6) CFU per 25 g poultry samples) were prepared respectively. All the samples were incubated for 0, 4, 8, 12 and 18 h and the DNA was extracted for RT-PCR detection, meanwhile by PCR detection and the traditional method. The sensitiveness and specificity were compared among the three methods. At the same time, 16 samples of retail whole poultry were collected from markets and detected by the above three methods as well, and thereby to further compare the positive detection among the three methods.

RESULTSThe established RT-PCR method was specific for the detection of Salmonella. The sensitivity was 5.2×10(3) CFU/ml for pure Salmonella culture without enrichment. Correlation coefficients of standard curves constructed using the Ct versus log value of concentration of Salmonella showed good linearity over a 8-log dynamic range (5.2×10(3)-5.2×10(10) CFU/ml), with the R(2) at 0.999. RT-PCR detection limit for artificially contaminated samples after enriching for 12 h was 1 CFU/25 g sample, which was the same with the limit of PCR and 10 times more sensitive than the limit of traditional method. Standard curve of sample after enrichment for 12 h was established. Seven of 16 samples were detected positive by RT-PCR, which were also tested positive by PCR, while only five samples were positive by traditional method. The positive ones were quantitatively analyzed using standard curve of sample and determined the initial Salmonella numbers of CFU/25 g.

CONCLUSIONThe established RT-PCR technology was simple, rapid, sensitive and specific, which was suitable to quickly detect Salmonella in poultry samples.

A fast,reliable,and cost-effective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was established to determine the effects of the traditional Chinese medicine employed to treat coronavirus disease 2019,namely,Lianhua Qingwen granules,Huoxiang Zhengqi capsules,Jinhua Qinggan granules,Shufeng Jiedu capsules,and Angong Niuhuang pills,on the pharmacokinetics of lopinavir/ritonavir in rats.Blood samples were prepared using the protein precipitation method and atazanavir was selected as the internal standard(IS).Separation was performed on an Agilent ZORBAX eclipse plus C18(2.1 mm x 50 mm,1.8 μm)column using acetonitrile and water containing 0.1％formic acid as the mobile phase for gradient elution.The flow rate was 0.4 mL/min and the injection volume was 2 μL Agilent Jet Stream electrospray ionization was used for mass spectrometry detection under positive ion multiple reaction monitoring mode at a transition of m/z 629.3→447.3 for lopinavir,m/z 721.3→296.1 for rito-navir,and m/z 705.4→168.1 for the IS.The method showed good linearity in the concentration range of 25-2500 ng/mL(r=0.9981)for lopinavir and 5-500 ng/mL(r=0.9984)for ritonavir.The intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracy were both within±15％.Items,such as dilution reliability and residual effect,were also within the acceptable limits.The method was used to determine the effects of five types of traditional Chinese medicines on the pharmacokinetics of lopinavir/ritonavir in rats.The pharmaco-kinetic results showed that the half-life of ritonavir in the groups administered Lianhua Qingwen granules and Huoxiang Zhengqi capsules combined with lopinavir/ritonavir was prolonged by approx-imately 1.5-to 2-fold relative to that in the control group.Similarly,the pharmacokinetic parameters of lopinavir were altered.Overall,the results of this study offer important theoretical parameters for the effective clinical use of five types of traditional Chinese medicines combined with lopinavir/ritonavir to reduce the occurrence of clinical adverse reactions.

Objective:To understand the current status of monkeypox knowledge and related factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China.Methods:The survey was conducted in 30 provinces from September 5 to 10, 2022. With the assistance of social organizations of MSM, MSM respondents were recruited one-to-one by investigators through a convenient sampling method. Respondents log in to the questionnaire star to participate in the anonymous online survey. The sample size was estimated at 5 070 based on China's population infectious disease prevention literacy level of 25%. The self-administered online questionnaire collected information on sociodemographic, behavioral, HIV infection status, attention to monkeypox, and knowledge of monkeypox. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors associated with knowledge awareness of monkeypox.Results:Among 5 780 MSM subjects, the awareness rate of monkeypox knowledge was 31.8% (1 840/5 780). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the related factors with higher awareness rate of monkeypox knowledge in MSM included the current address was in the eastern region ( OR=1.26, 95% CI: 1.01-1.56), college education level or above ( OR=1.50, 95% CI:1.14-1.97), the number of anal-sex partners in the last month was ≥3 ( OR=1.71, 95% CI: 1.28-2.28) or 2 ( OR=1.36, 95% CI:1.07-1.73), and there was no homosexual group sex in the last month ( OR=1.20, 95% CI:1.01-1.43), they had no heterosexual behavior ( OR=1.28, 95% CI:1.02-1.62), were HIV negative ( OR=1.85, 95% CI:1.44-2.36) or HIV positive ( OR=1.65, 95% CI:1.27-2.16), and paid frequent attention to monkeypox information ( OR=7.08, 95% CI: 5.28-9.48), occasional attention ( OR=4.52, 95% CI: 3.49-5.86) or minimal attention ( OR=2.55, 95% CI: 1.93-3.37). Conclusions:MSM has some attention and understanding of monkeypox in China, but the awareness rate of monkeypox knowledge is not high. It is necessary to strengthen the awareness of monkeypox knowledge among the MSM population with junior middle school education or below, who ignore the epidemic of monkeypox, have not been tested for HIV, and have had homosexual group sex or heterosexual sex to promote monkeypox prevention and self monitoring among MSM.
