Objective　To explore the potential hazards of organic pollutants in chlorinated drinking water on human reproduction.Methods　The reproductive toxicity of the organic pollutants extracted by solid phase extraction technique from chlorinated drinking water in a city,was determined by the co-culture of sertoli cells and spermatogenic cells.Results　No significant variation of the rate of detached spermatogenic cells was noticed compared with the control rats.The organic extracts stimulated the secretion of lactate from sertoli cells of testis in rats.Conclusion　The organic extracts of chlorinated drinking water revealed potential reproductive toxicity.

Objective　To findout a good method for malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelial cells 16HBE cell induced by anti-benzo (a) pyrene-trans-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (anti-BPDE) using the objective and simple index:colony forming frequency of cells in semisolid agar culture medium,and to establish a best model of malignant transformation of 16HBE cells.Methods　The tests on viable rate and colony formation of 16HBE cells were carried out to determine the exposure doses of anti-BPDE.The l6HBE cells were treated once or several times by anti BPDE at different doses and the transformed foci were observed and assessed at the different stages during the period of the whole experiment.The malignant features of transformed 16HBE cells with a good dose-response relationship were identified by the method of semisolid agar culture.The anti-BPDE induced colony forming frequencies of 16HBE cells in semisolid agar medium in each dose group were statistically compared.Results　The best method for malignant transformation of 16HBE cells induced by anti-BPDE was that the 16HBE cells were intermittently treated several times with anti-BPDE at doses of 0.1,0.5,1.0 and 2.0 μmol/L respectively and were inoculated for 15 generations,the related colony forming frequencies were 2.0‰,5.5‰,7.0‰ and 10.5‰respectively with a significant dose-response relation ship and a good linear correlation (r=0.9741,P＜0.05).Conclusion　The research infered that the malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelial cell-16HBE cells could be induced successfully by anti-BPDE,a suitable model could be established by anti-BPDE also.

Objective　To explore the mechanism of male reproductive toxicity of bisphenol-A.Methods　The morphological characteristics of seminiferous tubule,vimentin filaments and p53 gene expression in sertoli's cells of adult SD rats orally exposed to 0.5% bisphenol-A were observed and analyzed by histo-chemical and immuno-histochemical methods.Results　After 2-week-exposure to 0.50% bisphenol-A,the disattachment between sertoli's cell and spermatogonia,spermatogonia arranged in disorder and displacement of spermatogonia away from the basement membrance of seminiferous tubules as well as the flocculated chromatins of nuclei in sertoli's cells and spermatogonia were observed.Fourfold increase of p53 expression in nuclei of spermatogonia and leydig's cells and the collaps of vimentin filaments in sertoli's cells were also found.Conclusion　The results suggested that the disattachment between sertoli's cells and spermatogonia,might be associated with the collaps of vimentin filaments in nuclei of sertoli's cells and the increase of p53 expres sion in nuclei of sertoli's cells and spermatogonia,which might be one of the important mechanisms of reproductive toxicity of bisphenol-A.The increase of p53 expression in nuclei of leydig's cells might predict the potential anti-androgenicity of bisphenol-A

Cyanobacterial toxins may pose a threat to human health through drinking water and recreational water exposure. The official guideline limits of cyanobacterial toxins have not been established. The human health effects, exposure routes, possible guideline limits and calculation method were introduced in the present paper. The knowledge will provide a base to undertake risk management for the toxins and will also contribute to establishing official guideline limits of cyanobacterial toxins in water and will be benefit for ensuring the safety of drinking water.

The Artemiaia plants are widely dispersed over China. The spread regularity, allergy and clinical manifestations of Artemisia plant pollen were reviewed in the paper. Based on current research progress, the authors forecasted the research respects: the spread regularity, pathogenicity and pathogenic mechanism based on the molecular level.

Objective To estimate the marginal value of the chemical oxygen demand (COD) in drinking water by evaluation of uncertainty. Methods According to Evaluation and Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (JJF1059-1999), analysis of measure uncertainty of the chemical oxygen demand determined by acidic potassium permanganate titrate prescribed in Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water (2001) was conducted. Results The type A relative standard uncertainty was 0.584%, type B was 0.781%, in which the sub-item uncertainty led by using 25 ml burette was 0.708%, the water sample volume was 0.056%, the adjusted potassium permanganate standard solution was 0.325%; the relative combined standard uncertainty was 0.975%, the expanded uncertainty was 1.95%. Conclusion According to the result of the uncertainty (3.08?0.06) mg/L, COD in the polluted sample exceeds the limit, the use of 25 ml burette produced the most contribution to the uncertainty.

Objective To introduce a rapid spot test method for nitrite in water to meet the urgent need of nitrite monitoring during accidental pollution. Methods According to the drinking water legislation in Europe (threshold: 0.10 mg/L NO2-), a rapid spot test method for nitrite in water was established by using an optimized composition of reagent mixture and a binary positive/negative response, conducted as follows: a tablet of a mixture of solid reagents containing sulfanilamide, N-(1-naphthyl) ethylene diamine dihydrochloride and sodium chloride was put on a spot test plate of Teflon mould, then, a drop of 30%(V/V) HCl and a drop of water sample were added on the reagent material. Results Under these conditions, all the test samples containing ≥0.10 mg/L NO2- can produce a positive response of the characteristic red-purple color, whereas, the samples will produce a negative response when the level of NO2- was below the limit. The results of real water samples determined with this new method were confirmed by using the photometric method based on the use of the same reagents. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid , accurate, and suitable for field monitoring of nitrite in water.
