Objective To explore the method for simultaneous determination of arsenic and mercury in drinking water. Methods Atomic fluorescence spectrometry was applied for simultaneous determination of arsenic and mercury in drinking water. The best working conditions of the determination, such as the height of flame of atomizer, current of hollow cathode lamp, reducer, acidity and required amount of NaBH 4 were defined in this assay. Results The determination range of arsenic, the correlation coefficient and detection limit for arsenic were 0~40 ng/ml,0 999 5 and 0 10 ng/ml respectively, and were 0~80 ng/ml, 0 999 3 and 0 02 ng/ml for mercury respectively. The precisions and recovery rates of the simultaneous determination of arsenic and mercury in drinking water were 0 94%~5 61% and 94%~110%. Conclusion This method with advantages such as simple, rapid, sensitive, high accuracy and less interference, was suitable for simultaneous determination of arsenic and mercury in drinking water.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Wenyang Huoxue Recipe (WRHXR), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine for warming yang and promoting blood flow, on the expression of angiopoietin mRNA in rats with chronic aristolochic acid nephropathy induced by Caulis Aristolochia Manshuriensis (CAM) decoction, and to explore the protection mechanism of WYHXR against kidney damage. METHODS: Twenty-eight male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group, CAM group and WYHXR-treated group. Rats in the normal control group (n=8) and CAM group (n=10) were intragastrically administered with normal saline 10 ml/(kg.d) or CAM decoction 10 ml/(kg.d) respectively. Rats in the WYHXR-treated group (n=10) were intragastrically administered with WYHXR 30 g/(kg.d) and CAM decoction 10 ml/(kg.d). The expressions of Ang-l and Ang-2 mRNAs were detected by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) after 20-week treatment. RESULTS: Compared with the normal control group, the expression of Ang-l mRNA was significantly decreased, and the expression of Ang-2 mRNA was significantly increased in the CAM group (P<0.01). Compared with the CAM group, the expression of Ang-l mRNA was increased in the WYHXR-treated group (P<0.01). The expression of Ang-2 mRNA had no significant difference between the CAM group and the WYHXR-treated group (P>0.05). Renal pathology showed that renal damage in WYHXR-treated group was significantly reduced as compared with the CAM group. CONCLUSION: WYHXR can up-regulate the expression of Ang-l mRNA, which may be its action mechanism in protecting the kidneys.

Objective To observe the changes of CD+8CD+28,CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25CDlow127 regulate T (Treg)cellsin peripheral blood of lung cancer patients,and to analyze the correlation between CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25CDlow127 Treg cells to reveal the role and clinical significance of them in lung cancer patients.Methods Flow cytometry was applied to evaluate the level of CD+8CD+28,CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25CDlow127 Treg cells in peripheral blood of 60 untreated lung cancer patients and 60 healthy controls group.The association of each term with clinical features was analyzed.Results The percentage of CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25CDlow127 Treg cells in lung cancer group[(58.430:15.749) %,(7.365±2.025) %]was significantly higher than those in healthy group [(41.057±15.436)%,(6.648±1.669)%,(t=6.102,P<0.05;t=2.115,P<0.05)],while the percentage of CD+8CD+28cells is lower(41.570±15.739)% than that in healthy group[(58.700±15.298)%,(t=-6.043,P<0.05)].No close associations were found between three index and gender,age,and biological characteristics.With the increase of TNM stage,The percentage of CD+4CDhigh25 CDlow127 Treg cells increased gradually,which was remarkably higher in patients rith stage Ⅳ than that with stage ⅢA(t=-3.898,P<0.05).The percentage of CD+4CDhigh25 CDlow127 Tregcells was uncorrelated with CD+8CD-28 cells(r=-0.169,P>0.05).Conclusion The higher percentage of CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25 CDlow127 Treg cells,the lower percentage of CD+8CD+28 cells may be the important reasons of immune suppression in lung cancer patients.Though there is no correlation between CD+8CD-28 and CD+4CDhigh25 CDlow127 Treg cells,it is may be helpful to understand immunologic function and it may look for more specific therapy and provide a new reference in the prognosis of lung cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To regulate the management of operation drug and promote medication security. METHODS:Based on the relevant principles in the standard of JCI,the practice about establishment of operation pharmacy in our hospital was intro-duced,and it were stated from two aspects which included working mode and effects. RESULTS:The working mode were format-ed by definiting the duties and working flow of pharmacist,anesthetist and liaison man. The establishment of operation pharmacy, which brought operation drugs into the unified management system of our hospital,saved manpower and improved work efficien-cy,refined the management of drugs in all aspects,improved the management of drug safety level,strengthened drug expiration date management,implemented the reporting of adverse drug reactions(event)and collecting of medication(potential)errors. The established mode conformed to the relative standard of JCI including preparation,grant,storage and collection of ADR of drug. CONCLUSIONS:The established drug management of operation pharmacy promotes standardized administration of surgery drug, which guarantees the drug use safety of patients.

Objective To observe the protective effect of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (XZD) on vascular endothelial cells (VEC) injured by the serum of blood_stasis_syndrome ( BSS) rabbits. Methods The morphological features of VEC cultured with norma l rabbit serum (Group A), BSS rabbit serum(Group B), the serum of normal rabbit medicated with XZD(Group C) and the serum of BSS rabbit medicated with XZD(Group D) were observed respectively under light microscope and electron microscope. Results Under light microscope, VEC was shrinked, intercellular space widene d and cytoplasm contained dark granules in Group B. The change of intercellular space was not obvious in Group D. Under electron microscope, pinocytotic vesicle s increased, rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) decreased and dilated, mitochondr ia became smaller and indistinct and only a small amount of microvilli appeared on cell membrane with top expanded and merged in VEC of Group B as compared with Group A and Group C. Less RER but no dilatation and fewer microvilli without to p merged were found in VEC of Group B. Conclusion The serum of BSS rabbits c an injury normal VEC cultured in vitro and XZD exerts a certain protective effe ct on VEC injured by the serum of BSS rabbits.
