The microfluidic channels integrated with microring resonator were designed. The salt coalescence on chip surface caused by liquid volatilization in open environment was avoided and only 30 μL of reaction solution was consumed. These channels significantly reduced the experiment cost. The design, fabrication and characterization of a highly sensitive and label-free silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microring optical resonator integrated with the microfluidic channels were demonstrated. The radius of the microring was 5 μm and the straight waveguide with a width of 450 nm was employed in the microring resonator. The microring resonator device had many advantages such as high sensitivity, label-free and real-time detection. Using different concentrations of ethanol solution with known refractive indices, the refractive index detection sensitivity was 76.09 nm/RIU and the volume refractive index detection limit was 5.25×10Symbolm_4 RIU. We also demonstrated the label-free quantitative specific detections of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) solutions using an antibody-modified microring resonator by measuring the resonance wavelength shift resulting from refraction index changes causing by the immobilization of antibodies and specific recognition between antibodies and antigens, respectively. The results showed that the microring optical resonator could real-time monitor the reaction between biological molecules, the resonator could be used in the quantitative detection and biological sensing.

AIM　To investigate the transdermal delivery effects of cyclosporine A solubilized in mixed micelles composed of phospholipid and different surfactants. METHODS　When applied onto the excised abdominal skin of the mice occlusively, the enhancing effects of various mixed micelles on the penetration of cyclosporin A were assessed by an in vitro permeation technique. In vivo study was carried out by topical application of sodium cholate-phospholipid mixed micelles onto the mice skin and drug blood concentration was detected. RESULTS　In vitro, mixed micelles containing different surfactants displayed distinct permeability and corresponded to the following order: sodium cholate > sodium deoxycholate > Trition X-100 > Tween-20. In vivo, peak drug concentration was detected at 5 h and after that the concentration fell down slowly. CONCLUSION　Mixed micelles were shown to be efficient carrier for the transdermal delivery of the lipophilic polypeptide when kept in solution during the application process.

This investigation was made on 30 adult female rats weighing approximately 150～200g. during estrus as judged from vaginal smear examination. Ovaries which investigated with electron microscope, were fixed in 3％ glutaraldehyde. Other ovaries were embeded in paraffin and examined under light microscope.Theca folliculi of large antral follicles were examined with electron microscope. Three kinds of theca cells were distinguished. They were secretory cell, fibroblast and smooth muscle cell. The secretory cell showed the characterastics of the steroidproducing cell, having smooth endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and lipid droplets. The fibroblast contained rough endoplasmic reticulum, free ribosomes and mitochondria in the cytoplasm. The smooth muscle cell was located in the outer layer of theca folliculi, and its structural features were typical according to the criteria of Somlyo and Somlyo: (1) pinocytotic vesicles of the cytoplasmic membranes; (2) myofilaments in the cytoplasm; (3) dense bodies intimately related to the myofilaments; and (4) location of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum at the nuclear poles.The ultrastructure of smooth muscle cell, its differentiation and other problems were discussed.
