Objective: To analyze the uncertainty in the determination of formaldehyde in food stimulant.Methods: HPLC with pre-column derivation was used to determine formaldehyde in food stimulant.A calculation formula was established to identify the source of uncertainty and the combined uncertainty was evaluated.Results: The synthetic uncertainty in the determination of formaldehyde was 1.7% and the expanded uncertainty was 3.4%.The formaldehyde content in food stimulant was (1.320 ± 0.044) mg·L-1 (k =2).Conclusion: The study provides reference for the uncertainty analysis on formaldehyde content in food stimulant by HPLC with pre-column derivation.

Objective To analyze and evaluate the effect addition of albumin to the extracorporeal circulation (CPB) in patients undergoing valve replacement. Methods 62 patients under 60 years of age, with the blood level of albumin nearly normal, undergoing mitral valve replacement or aortic valve replacement were randomly divided into two groups. In 34 patients albumin was added to the priming fluid of extraporeal circulation, and in 28 patients it was not. The pre-operative and postoperative serum albumin levels, the duration of assisting ventilation, and the amount of albumin needed between the time of operation to 7 am of the first postoperative day were compared. In both groups the primary priming fluid consisted of balanced electrolyte solution, hydroxyethyl starch, 5% sodium bicarbonate, and 25% mannitol. Results All the indexes, including the preoperative level of albumin, the amount of albumin needed from operation to 7 am of the first postoperative day, and the albumin level at 7 am of the first postoperative day showed no notable differences. Conclusion For patients with no hypoalbuminemia, mitral valve replacement or aortic valve replacement is safe to withhold the addition of albumin to the priming fluid for CPB.

OBJECTIVE To understand the clinical distribution and drug resistance of Enterococcus to provide evidence for the rational use of antibiotics. METHODS The Enterococcus isolated form clinic from Jan 2006 to Dec 2007 and the sensitivity to 13 kinds of antibiotics were tested by K-B method. RESULTS All of 122 strains of Enterococcus were isolated which included 76 strains of E.faecalis(62.3%),29 strains of E.faecium(23.8%) and 17 strains of other enterococcus(13.9%).Most enterococcus were detected from vaginal secretion,urine,drainage fluid,cervical secretion and throat swab.Drug sensitivity test showed that the sensitivity to vancomycin and teicoplanin was high while the resistance to rifampicin,erythromycin,tetracycline and ciprofloxacin was the highest,and the total resistance rate of E.faecium was higher than E.faecalis. CONCLUSIONS The detection rate and resistance rate of Enterococcus present a rising trend,which should be paid for more attention by clinic.Bateria cultivation is necessary for suspected enterococcus infection and the drugs selected according to sensitivity result to improve the curative effect.

AIM: To investigate the expression of c-fos in the neonatal rats' brains following hypoxia-ischemia.METHODS: RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the transcription and translation of c-fos gene in the cortex and hippocampus following hypoxia-ischemia.RESULTS: The expression of c-fos mRNA and protein were induced in the cortex and hippocampus at the early stage following hypoxia-ischemia(P

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of c fos gene and delayed neuron death in perinatal hypoxia ischamia encephalopathy (HIE). Methods Terminal deo xynuleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL), immuno histochemistry andreverse transcription PCR(RT PCR) were used to detect the apoptosis and transcription and translation of c fos gene in the hippocampus following HIE. Results Positive signal of apoptosis from CA1 to CA4 sections were observed in experimental hippocampi. Marked signal appeared earlier and longer in CA1 section than in the other sections[CA1: 1 h: (14.6?2.3),24 h: (51?6),72 h: (17.4?0.3);CA4:1 h :1.3?1.6),24 h: (47?8),72 h: (21.6?0.6) apoptosis cell number/ mm 2 ],compared with the sham group of CA1 section P

Objective To investigate the changes of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)in serum and urine of lupus nephritis(LN)patients in active phase and remission phase.Methods The levels of MCP-1 in serum and urine of 58 LN patients(27 of active phase and 31 of remission phase)were measured by ELISA.The correlation between the levels of MCP-1 in variant phase of LN and other relevant factors were analyzed.Results The MCP-1 levels in sera of both active phase and remission phase of LN patients were markedly higher than those in controls(548.5?347.2 ng/L and 469.1?298.4 ng/L vs 273.3?146.7 ng/L,P0.05).Conclusion The MCP-1 levels in urine of LN patients is more suitable to evaluate the activity of disease as a sensitive marker.

HIV-1 integrase enzyme is a 32kDa protein encoded by HIV pol gene. It is responsible for integration of viral cDNA into host chromosomal DNA, which is indispensable for HIV replication.Since there was no functional equivalent for this enzyme in human cells, inhibition of integrase will bring little side effect to human body. Thus HIV integrase has become an attractive and rational target for therapy of AIDS after reverse transcriptase and protease.The Recent research on HIV-1integrase structure,inhibitors and new therapeutic method target at HIV integrase was reviewed.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the peritoneal fluid (PF) in women with endometriosis (EM) on the natural killer (NK) cell activity, and to study its relationship with the level of prostaglandins(PGs) and interleukin 6(IL 6). Methods:HeLa cells were taken as target cell, the LDH releasing assay was used to measure NK cell activity after preincubation with PF of EM. The concentration of IL 6, PGE 2 and PGF 2? was measured by radioimmunoassay. Results:After incubated with PF of women with and without EM for 2 h, the inhibition percentages was(65.2?21.8)% and (37.1?18.9)% respectively ( P
