Filamentous fungi are widely used for large-scale production of cellulases. Morphological characteristics of mycelia under submerged condition are closely correlated with cellulases productivity. In order to find out the critical genes involved in the mycelial morphology development and cellulases production in liquid fermentation, 95 Neurospora crassa morphological mutants (named as SZY1-95) were screened for cellulases production. Compared with the wild type, cellulases production in four mutants SZY32, SZY35, SZY39 and SZY43 were significantly decreased, whereas mutants SZY63, SZY69, SZY87 and SZY11 produced much more cellulases than that of the wild type strain. Meanwhile, endo-beta-1,4-glucanase activity, beta-glucosidase activity, viscosity of broth and dry weight of these mutants were measured. The mycelial morphology of the mutants was also studied by microscope. Particularly, pellets were formed in mutant SZY11 and SZY43, whose viscosities were 25% and 50% of the wild type strain, respectively. Mutant SZY87 appeared long hyphae, and the viscosity of its broth was at least 2 folds of the wild type strain. These results indicate that a single gene deletion could influence the mycelial morphology in liquid fermentation, and increased the cellulases production. The low-viscosity related genes identified in our study will be the potential candidates for genetic modification of filamentous fungi.

Objective To assess the displaying of the cystic artery and the cystic duct in calculus cholecystitis patients using MSCT.Methods One hundred and three patients with calculus cholecystitis (the experimental group)and 71 patients with non-gallbladder disease (the control group)performed the cystic artery and the cystic duct imaging using MSCT.The data in two groups were recorded and statistical analyzed.Results (1)The display rate of the cystic duct were 93.2% (96/103)in the experimental group and 100% (71/71)in the control group with the significant difference between the two groups (P <0.05).7 cases whose cystic ducts could not displayed in the experimental group were all the acute cholecystitis,and the display rate of the cystic duct in the acute cholecystitis was 77.4%(24/31).The display rate of the cystic artery were 100% in both the experimental and control group.(2)The variation rate of the cystic duct running were 10.4% (10/96)in the experimental group and 18.3% (13/71 )in the control group with no significant difference between the groups (P >0.05).The variation rate of the cystic artery running were 13.5% (13/96)in the experimental group and 1 5.5% (1 1/71)in the control group.There was no significant difference between the groups (P >0.05).Conclusion The cystic duct and the cystic artery could be evaluted well in calculus cholecystitis using CT.The displaying of the cystic duct is relatively poor in acute cholecystitis.

Objective To explore a variety of levels of serum marker test applications in the diagnosis of fatty liver .Methods Data were randomly selected from April 2013 to April 2014 for treatment of patients with fatty liver hospital 45 cases ,set the study group ,choose the same period in healthy volunteers to undergo a medical examination in our hospital 45 cases ,it was set to control group ,two groups of subjects were taking a variety of levels of serum markers tested .Comparison and analysis of two groups of subjects to detect a variety of levels of serum markers and positive case detection rate .Results The study group subjects ALT , AST ,TG ,TC index the average level of detection was higher than the control group ,statistically significant differences (P<0 .01);study group subjects ALT ,AST ,TG ,TC index the positive rates were 77 .78% ,93 .33% ,55 .56% ,46 .67% more than 8 .89% in the control group ,4 .44% ,15 .56% ,11 .11% higher ,statistically significant differences (P<0 .05);United biochemical indicator de‐tection of biochemical indicators of detection rate of fatty liver was obviously higher than that of single detection rate ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Multiple levels of serum markers of fatty liver diagnostic test in higher detec‐tion rate .

Objective To explore the value of comprehensive biochemical and serological test in Salmonella clinical test .Methods A total of 95 cases of suspected salmonella infection with enteric fever were selected as subjects in this study from April 2013 to A‐pril 2014 ,and 48 cases randomly divided in research group ,47 cases in control group .Regular inspection was conducted in the con‐trol group ,comprehensive biochemical and serological test were conducted in the control group .Compared the results in the two groups .Results The salmonella detection rate in the research group was 93 .75% ,which was significant higher than 68 .09% in the control group (P< 0 .05) .Conclusion Combined detection of comprehensive biochemical and serology test could detect Salmonella effectively ,it is worthy of application and popularization in clinic .
