The study is to prepare taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules by melting and fluid bed coating technology. Clarithromycin and matrix materials were melted at a certain temperature, and then made into particles by fluidized bed coating. X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to identify the crystal and morphology of drug loading granules. In vitro dissolution method was used for the observation of the drug release behavior. The results showed that the drug particles size range was 0.2 - 0.6 mm; the crystal form of clarithromycin in the granule did not change; enteric-coated granules accumulated release in 0.1 mol L(-1) hydrochloric acid in 2 h was less than 10%, while in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer in 1 h was more than 80%. The taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules not only have good taste masking effect, but also have a good release behavior. It is expected to have better clinical application.

PEG-modified magnetic Fe3O4 (Fe3O4-PEG) nanoparticles were sythesized using a solvothermal reaction and characterized with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA). The photothermal effect and photothermal destruction of cancer cells were evaluated. Then the doxorubicin loaded Fe3O4-PEG (DOX-Fe3O4-PEG) nanoparticles were prepared. The cytotoxicity and combined chemotherapy/photothermal therapy (PTT) effect were investigated. Uniform PEG coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles with particle size of 155 nm were obtained in the experiment. The loading and release of doxorubicin on Fe3O4-PEG were pH-dependent. The drug loading capacity in water was 21%. The results of MTT indicated a good biocompatiblity of Fe3O4-PEG nanoparticles and high cytotoxicity of DOX-Fe3O4-PEG. In combined therapy experiment, photothermal therapy demonstrated unambiguously enhanced chemotherapy efficacy. In conclusion, the obtained Fe3O4-PEG nanoparticles which exhibit good photothermal effect and drug loading capacity can be used for chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. The synergetic anti-tumor activity indicates the potential for the combined application of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy in cancer treatment.

Objective To investigate the etiological and antibiotic resistance profile in the old patients with bloodstream infection (BSI).Methods Microbiological and clinical data were collected and reviewed retrospectively for the patients with confirmed bloodstream infection and at least 65 years of age who were treated as inpatients in Tongling People′s Hospital from January to December 2015.Results A total of 107 strains of pathogen were isolated from the blood samples of 107 patients with bloodstream infections, of which community-acquired BSI accounted for 57.9 % (62/107), and hospital-acquired BSI 42.1 % (45/107). Gram negative bacilli accounted for 67.7 % in the pathogens of community-acquired BSI and gram positive cocci accounted for 55.5 % in the pathogens of hospital-acquired BSI. More male BSI patients were secondary to respiratory tract infection than female patients (P<0.001), while more female BSI patients were secondary to urinary tract infection than male patients (P<0.001). Of the 107 isolates, gram negative bacilli, gram positive cocci and fungi accounted for 55.1 % (59/107), 42.1 % (45/107) and 2.8 % (3/107), respectively. The top six pathogens were E. coli (30.9 %), coagulase negativeStaphylococcus (CNS) (20.6 %), S. aureus (10.3 %),K. pneumoniae (6.5 %),Enterococcusspp. (6.5 %) and Acinetobacter spp. (4.7 %). About 51.5 % of the E. coli isolates and 28.6 % of the K. pneumoniae isolates produced extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs).E. coli isolates showed low resistance rate (< 10 %) to amikacin,cefoxitin and piperacillin-tazobactam. No E. coli isolate was found resistant to carbapenem. About 14.3 % to 28.6 % of K. pneumoniae isolates were resistant to carbapenems. No tigecycline-resistant K. pneumoniae was found. The prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS was 36.4 % and 72.7 %, respectively. No staphylococcal isolates were found resistant to vancomycin, teicoplanin or linezolid. One strain of E. faecium was identified as resistant to vancomycin (VRE).Conclusions This surveillance data indicate that gram negative bacilli play an important role in the BSI of old patients. E. coli and CNS are the most common pathogens. We should pay more attention to the effect of gender and site of infection on the BSI in old patients.
