Objective To explore the application of steatosis liver donor (SLD) in piggyback liver transplantation (PBLT). Methods Sixty-four cases of SLD were subjected to PBLT and classified into light steatosis liver (S1,22 cases),moderate steatosis liver (S2,25 cases),and severe steatosis liver (S3,17 cases) groups.Eighty cases of non fatty liver selected randomly in the same period served as controls. The liver and renal function at the day of surgery,postoperative liver function recovery,complications one month after surgery,and the death of recipients were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the liver and renal function between steatosis liver groups and control group at the day of surgery (P>0.05). At 21st day after surgery,the liver function of 95% recipients in control group returned to the normal level,and the liver function recovery rate in S1,S2 and S3 groups was 90.9%,80.0%,and 70.6% respectively.Graft primary nonfunction occurred in 2 cases (11.8%) of S3 group. The incidence of complications such as bleeding,infection,hepatic artery thrombosis,ascites,sepsis in S1,S2 and S3 groups was higher than in control group (P<0.05).One year after operation,there were two deaths in control group,one in S1 group,one in S2 group,and 5 in S3 group,respectively.Conclusion SLD can be used for transplantation,but for the transplantation with severe steatosis liver,it should be carried out carefully.

Two kinds of β2-agonistresidues in sheep plasma and urine were disposed by enzymolysis and organic solvent extraction pretreatment methods, and UPLC-MS/MS was used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis. Detection results were compared to study the influences of two pretreatment methods. The experimental results showed that more than 95% of Ractopamine and 40% of Salbutamol exist in the conjugated form in sheep plasma. The detection results of 2 kinds of β2-agonist residues were significantly enhanced when adding β-glucuronidase/aryl sulfatase. The experimental repeatability is very poor ( RSD>40%) when the enzymolysis was not carried out. There were 57% of Ractopamine and less than 1% of Salbutamol exists in the conjugated form in sheep urine. Enzymolysis pretreatment method was useful for the Ractopamine residues determination in urine, and Enzymolysis pretreatment method was useless for Salbutamol determination in urine. Matrix effect of plasma was less than the effects of urine. The influence of organic solvent extraction pretreatment method on the detection results was unremarkable, and there was the possibility that organic solvent extraction could lead partial loss of target compound in extraction process. However, it did not influence the detection results by using internal standard calibration.

A rapid high-throughput method for the determination of 26 mycotoxins involving multifunctional cleanup column coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( LC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for the determination in feedstuffs. The feedstuff samples were extracted by ultrasonic treatment for 1 hour and the extraction solvent was acetonitrile/water/formic acid (84:15. 9:0. 1, V/V). 1 mL of the supernatant layer was purified by a commercial Mycospin 400 multifunctional cleanup column, then dried and re-dissolved by 0. 25 mL water/methanol/formic acid (95:4. 9:0. 1, V/V) in a vial for injection into the LC-MS/MS system. Chromatographic analyses were carried out on a reversed phase C18 column and using a gradient elution with 0. 1% formic acid aqueous solution and 0. 1% formic acid methanol solution. The mass spectrometer was operated in a multiple reaction monitoring ( MRM) mode that selected one precursor ion and two product ions for each target compound. Validation studies were carried out in maize and soybean meal as representative matrixes. The most target compounds had different level of matrix effects. So, matrix-matched calibration was adopted for quantification. Mean recoveries from spiked samples at three levels ranged from 61 . 9% to 119 . 5% with relative standard deviations of 0 . 8%-18 . 6%. Limits of quantification ranged from 0. 5 μg/kg to 25 μg/kg.
