A selenium-health database, in which data were compiled only from Chinese literatures, has been realized. For data processing the rnulti-variate analysis software package involved pattern recognitions as the main part has been developed. Based upon such a computation, we hare discussed the following objects; the Se-contents of Chinese foods, the relation between trace element Se and some of the endemic diseases, and the Se-ecological food's chain in China.

Objective To understand the expression of heat shock protein(HSP70)mRNA induced by chlorpyrifos in the hepatic tissue of rats.Methods Wistar rats aged 6 weeks were divided into 4 groups,12 in each including 6 male and 6 female,the rats in the experimental groups were treated with chlorpyrifos by gavage once a day at the doses of 17 mg/kg?bw,8.5 mg/kg?bw and 4.25 mg/kg?bw respectively for 14 consecutive days,one group was the negative control.After the exposure,the hepatic tissue was sampled to examine the expression of HSP70 mRNA by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).Results The expression of HSP70 mRNA in the hepatic tissue in the groups of 17 mg/kg?bw,8.5 mg/kg.bw was significantly up-regulated with a dose-response relationship compared with the negative control group.Conclusion The expression of HSP70 mRNA is a sensitive parameter for early exposure assessment of chlorpyrifos.

Object To compare the content in corilagin of Phyllanthus urinaria L. harvested from ten different regions of China in different months. Methods The content of corilagin was determined by UV spectrophotometry, detective wavelength is 270 nm. Results The content of corilagin in P. urinaria from Hainan and Guizhou province was the lowest, 0 58%. The highest content was given by the plant from Xi'an zone, Shanxi province, 1 78%. The best harvest time is in August and September, content of corilagin is 1 24%. Conclusion The difference of the corilagin contents in P urinaria . harvested from different regions and in different harvest time in the same region is great.

AIM: To determine the contents of corilagin in Erodium stephanianum Willd. from different collection month and to define the best collection time for this herb. METHODS: The contents of corilagin in each samples of E. stephanianum were determined by HPLC. RESULTS: The linear regression of corilagin was obtained in the range of 0.22～1.10?g. The average recovery was 98.6% with a RSD of 0.63%. CONCLUSION: The content of corilagin in E. stephanianum collected in August is the highest among the samples throughout the collection months.

Tethered cord syndrome is a severe and congenital disease. Resecting the diseased ilium terminal(FT), eystis, lipoma is the main treatment for the disease, relieving the injury to the eonus medullaris. Why the FT is diseased and thickened? Is it necessary to eut internal FT or external FT? What is the injury mechanism of the low-positional or normal positional oonus medullaris? To study the component and structure of the conus medullaris and FT may give definite answers.

Objective To assess the effects of three way catalytic converter on the health risk of benzene series.Methods After collecting the benzene series(benzene,toluene,xylene) in the air inlet and air outlet of the three way catalytic converser in 100% working loads,their health risk was assessed with the methods of health risk assessment.Results After catalysis,the hazard index of toluene and xylene decreased in all loads,the hazard index and carcinogenesis risk of benzene increased in 100% loads,the chronic long-term hazard index of benzene deceased in 100% loads.Conclusion The three way catalytic converter can change the health risk of benzene series emission by gasoline engine,the carcinogenesis risk of benzene series emission will be increased when the gasoline is treated with the three way catalytic converter.

Objective To evaluate the safety of the levels of fluoride,arsenic and lead in toothpaste and the microbiological index of the toothpaste saled in Tianjin. Methods 60 tubes of toothpaste were sampled from the department stores and shops in Tianjin. The toothpaste samples included 14 tubes of commen toothpaste,18 tubes of medicated toothpaste,28 tubes of toothpaste blended with fluoride. Among 28 tubes of fluoride-adding toothpaste,6 tubes were specially used for children,19 tubes were domestic products for adults,3 tubes were imported for adults. All of the domestic toothpaste sampled were made in more than 10 cities and privinces such as: Tianjin,Beijing,Shanghai,Guangdong,etc. The levels of fluoride in toothpaste were determined by ion selective electrode,arsenic and lead were determined by inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy,the microbiological indexes were determined based on GB8372-1995 (toothpaste?雪. Results The contentes of soluble fluoride were 539-877 mg/kg for 5 tubes of fluoride-adding toothpaste used for children, 1 582-1 697 mg/kg for 3 tubes of domestic fluoride-adding toothpaste used for adults. The content of lead in an tubes of imported toothpaste was as high as 43.09 mg/kg,2.9 time the value of the national standard. The total count of bacteria,the count of fecal coliform,Paeruginosa,Staph aureus in 52 tubes of toothpaste sampled met the requirement of the related national standards. Conclusion The sanitary quality of 60 tubes of toothpaste sampled for this study saled in Tianjin was qualified in general,but very few had the sanitary problems in the aspects of fluoride excess in domestic fluoride-adding toothpaste and lead excess in imported toothpaste.

Objective To analyze the association HLA DQ gene polymorphism to MG susceptibility.Methods HLA DQA1 and DQB1 were genetyped using PCR RFLP Results Comparing the frequency of HLA DQA1 alleles between MG patients with hyperplasia or MG males with disease onset less than 30 years and the healthy controls It was found that the frequency of DQA1*0301 was significantly increased Furthermore,in comparison with the frequency of HLA DQB1 alleles between MG patients (included subgroups)and the healthy controls,the frequency of DQB1*0303 was significantly increased,while the frequencies of DQB1*0601 and DQB1*0602 were significantly decreased And these differences were statistically significant. Conclusions HLA DQA1*0301 contributes to the genetic susceptibility of MG with hyperplasia and MG males with disease onset ≤30 years old DQB1*0303 was susceptible to MG DQB1*0601 and DQB1*0602 were protective genes

The pharmacokinetics of morphine in rats was studied after treatment with morphine, as well as morphine and lofexidine. The results showed that in lofexidine group the T 1/2ka and CL of morphine was significantly increased, while the C max ,AUC and T 1/2k of morphine were significantly decreased. Our results indicate that the lofcxidine can reduce the absorption rate of the morphine and the concentration of morphine in blood, and then can increase the total clearance rate of morphine in rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of conventional preseratives on the stability of carboxyhemoglobin(HbCO)in the stored blood samples.Methods Blood samples with 30%～40% and 60%～70% of HbCO were established,respectiviely.The samples were stored with the commomly used preseratives including formaldehyde,sodium fluoride,EDTA-Na_2,sodium nitrite,potassium oxalate,heparin sodium,sodium citrate and the mixture of sodium fluoride and sodium citrate(1:3).Saturation of HbCO in the preserved blood samples were determined at 0h,2h,8h,24h,3d,and 7d after treatment with the addictives,respectively.The data were evaluated statistically.Results The stability of HbCO was significantly affected in the formaldehyde and sodium nitrite-treated samples,but no significant effects of the other preseratives on the blood samples were detected.Conclusion The stability of HbCO in the blood samples conserved varies with the type of the preseratives used.The samples taken from cases with suspected death from carbon monoxide poisoning should be kept with proper preseratives.Blood samples preserved with formaldehyde and sodium nitrite are not suitable for HbCO determination.
