A novel, simple and highly sensitive method was developed for the rapid analysis of phenolic antioxidants at trace level in edible oils. It was based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction ( DLLME ) and gas chromatography-mass/mass spectrometry ( GC-MS/MS) . Related important factors that may influence enrichment efficiency, such as type and volume of extraction solvent, type and volume of dispersive solvent, and extraction time were investigated and optimized in detail. The optimum conditions were as follows:a quick injection of 500 μL mixed solution ( methanol:acetonitrile=1:1 , V/V ) into 1 . 0 g oil sample with 3 mL n-hexane for 10 s of extraction time. Under the optimal conditions, the linearity (10-2000 ng/g), limits of detection (1. 5-2. 4 ng/g) and relative standard deviations (4. 0%-8. 3%) was obtained. The proposed method was applied for the analysis of 4 edible oil samples. Some of phenolic antioxidants were detected in three of them, and the recoveries of spiked samples were in the range of 81. 9%-118%.

BACKGROUNDUnhygienic blood collection in the early 1990s led to blood-borne infections in Central China. This study aimed to estimate human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection with hepatitis C and B viruses (HCV and HBV) and their risk factors in a rural area of Shanxi Province with a history of commercial blood donation.

METHODSA cross-sectional study was conducted in 2004. All adult residents in the target area were invited to participate in the study. Face-to-face interviews were completed and blood specimens were tested for HIV, HCV, and HBV surface antigen (HBsAg).

RESULTSPrevalence rates of HIV, HCV, and HBsAg were 1.3% (40/3 062), 12.7% (389/3 062), and 3.5% (103/2982), respectively. Of the 40 HIV-positive specimens, 85% were HCV positive and 2.5% were HBsAg positive. The history of commercial blood donation was positively associated with HIV, HCV, and HIV/HCV co-infections, but was negatively associated with HBsAg seropositivity. Migration for employment in the last 5 years was positively related to HIV, HBsAg, and HIV/HCV co-infections. Univariate logistic analysis showed that illegal drug use, number of sex partners, extramarital sex behavior, commercial sex behavior, and condom use rate were not related to anti-HIV, anti-HCV, HBsAg seropositivity or their co-infections.

CONCLUSIONThe history of commercial blood donation was the main risk factor for HIV, HCV, and HIV/HCV co-infections in this former commercial blood donation area. HIV and HCV prevention and treatment interventions are important in this area.
