A high-throughput method for screening drug multi residues was developed by quadrupole-time-of-flight( Q-TOF) mass spectrometry together with QuEChERS sample preparation technique. It has been used for the determination of 57 drugs, such as tetracyclines ( TCs ) , sulfonamides ( SAs ) , quinolones ( QNs ) , triphenylmethanes (TPMs), estrogens (ETs), androgens (AGs) and glucocorticoids (GCs) in fish. The optimized pretreatment conditions were examined. The target compounds were extracted with acetonitrile under the condition of Na2 EDTA-Mcllvaine buffer, and the usage of clean-up reagents was 25 mg anhydrous magnesium sulfate, 12. 5 mg octadecylsilane and 6. 25 mg N-Propylethylenediamine sorbent for extracted solvent of each milliliter. The positive results acquired by this high-throughput method were confirmed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( LC-MS/MS) . The detection limit for these 59 drugs was in the range of 0. 5-5. 3 μg/kg. The method is time-saving, convenient, effective and wide coverage. Its sensitivity can meet the requirement of the detection of drug residues in aquatic products.

To probe the effect of paeoniflorin on periovular granuloma and liver fibrosis in mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum in different times of infection and the treatment with praziquantel (PZQ). The models of hepatic fibrosis induced by S.japonicum were established by exposure of BALB/c mice percutaneously through the tail to cercariae of S.japonicum. and mice with treatment were randomly divided into 3 groups: i.e. groups of pre-treatment (I), group of simultaneous treatment (Ⅱ) and group of post-treatment (III). All groups, except the normal control group, were orally introduced with PZQ. And mice in the paeoniflorin-treated group and control group were separately introduced with paeoniflorin and 0.5% sodium carboxymethycellulose respectively. The treatments in group I, II and III were started 30 days before PZQ usage, simultaneously with PZQ or 30days-after PZQ usage respectively. Mice in these groups were sacrificed on the 102, 132 or 162 days after infection. Then the serum levels of hyaluronic acid (HA), amino-terminal peptide of type III procollagen (PIIIP) and liver hydroxyproline (Hyp) were detected. The histopathology was examined by HE and Masson staining; the degree of hepatic fibrosis and the area of egg granuloma were analyzed. The expression of collagen I was examined by immunohistochemical method. It was found that the area of granuloma and degree of hepatic fibrosis in the paeoniflorin-treated groups in group I and III were significantly lower than those in the model control groups. Also, paeoniflorin could induce decreas expression of collagen I. Meanwhile the levels of serum HA, PIIIP and liver Hyp were all reduced in comparison with those in the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). However, in group Ⅱ, no significant difference was noted between the treated and the control group in most data. Paeoniflorin also showed the effects to reduce the size of periovular granuloma and to reduce the expression of type I collagen, thereby to resist the development of hepatic fibrosis caused by S. japonicum.-It is evident that PAE shows an efficaciously therapeutic effect on the development of liver fibrosis of shistosomiasis, whenever it is administered before or after the usage of schistosomicides.

Objective To evaluate percutaneous injection of hemostatic agents under the guidance of contrast-enhanced sonography(CEUS) in controlling hemorrhage from severe splenic trauma. Methods Eight patients with splenic traumas of grade Ⅲ, Ⅳ were consecutively enrolled in this study. Percutaneous injection of hemocoagulase atrox and α-cyanoacrylate was performed by CEUS-guidance in all patients. Ultrasound examination was performed at 1,3,7 and 14 days after focal injection. Vital signs and hemoglobin (Hb) level were recorded. Results After the injection,immediate CEUS demonstrated that active bleeding from the injury sites disappeared. From 30 minutes after the injection arterial blood pressure began to ascend ( P <0. 05), and heart rate decreased to the normal level after the treatment ( P <0.05). Hb decreased at first and then gradually increased to the normal level. Conclusions Pereutaneous injection of hemoeoagulase atrox and α-cyanoacrylate under the guidance of CEUS can effectively control bleeding from a severe splenic trauma. CEUS can be helpful to the diagnosis of the suspected splenic trauma and to ensure hemostatic materials to be injected exactly into injury sites.
