Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;27(12):1290-1294
Objective: To compare the mitochondrial content, the relative amount of mtDNA, and mitochondrial functions between the young and aging WI-38 cells, so as to investigate the correlation between mitochondrial and aging. Methods: Human embryonic lung diploid cell line WI-38 was cultured and its viability was assayed by MTT assay; the content of mitochondrial protein was determined using BCA-100 Protein Quantitative Analysis Kit after mitochondria were fractionated by differential centrifugation; mtDNA relative content was measured by a competitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method; mitochondrial membrane potential was measured by flow cytometry; and NADH oxidase activity was measured by spectrophotometry. Results: Compared with the young cells, the aging cells had a longer time to form a monolayer, an obviously decreased cell viability and mitochondrial membrane potential (by 50%), and a decreased NADH oxidase activity, with the maximal reaction speed declining from 66.73 nmol/(mg protein · min) to 36. 01 nmol/(mg protein · min). Mitochondrial content in the aging cells([0.78 ± 0.02] mg/ml) was higher than that in the young cells([0.56 ± 0.03] mg/ml). Using 18S rDNA of nuclear as an internal reference, the relative amount of mtDNA in the aging cells (1.557 ± 0.072) was found to be obviously higher than that in the young cells (1.292 ± 0.068). Conclusion: The increase of mitochondrial contents and mtDNA relative amounts in aging cells may be one of the compensatory mechanisms for decreased mitochondrial function, which may provide an evidence for studying the correlation between mitochondrial and aging.

Foodbome viruses are defined to be viruses that can lead to human diseases through food. In accordance with the different origin, foodborne viruses can be divided into two kinds: intestinal viruses and zoonotic viruses. The former include those viruses that can be transmitted to person via fecal-orally route. The latter include those zoonotic viruses that chiefly transmitted to person through livestock and poultry products. This paper expounds foodborne viruses categories, biology nature, epidemiology character, and study circumstance, and clarifies the molecular biological methods and problems on the base of the polymerase chain reactions, and presents the development direction and application perspective of the foodbome viruses study.

The brown slime inside pipeline of the polluted mineral waters well was analyzed. It was confirmed that the brown slime was a biofilm formed mainly by growth of bacteria contaminant, using microscope analysis. After treated with HCl, the brown crystals and mycelioid matter presented in slimes disappeared. It was verified these were metal deposits. The samples produced Prussia blue deposits by dropping K 4Fe(CN) 6 and HCl, which proved that the metal deposits were iron compound. Also it was believed the biofilm was produced by growth of iron bacteria, mixed with deposits of iron compound. The iron bacteria have been isolated from the slimes and cultured in the laboratory. The colony on agar plate also produced Prussia blue deposits after treated with K 4Fe(CN) 6 and HCl. The cells form of pure culture was the same as that in the samples by electronmicroscope analysis. Therefore, It indicated that the bacteria on biofilm inside pipeline were iron bacteria mainly.

In this assay, the reaction kinetics, optimum temperature, pH and various influential factors of ATP microbial rapid detection reagent by bioluminescence were studied. The results showed that it's enough for detection system to have 40 ~ 50?g/mL D-Luciferin. The light production decreased fastest in the first minute of reaction, then began to decay slowly. The optimal reaction temperature was 24℃~25℃and the optimal pH was pH 7.2 -7.4 in the reaction system. In addition, when stored at 4℃for 45h, the dissolved reagent solution could keep its 86% activity. When preserved at 25℃, the enzyme activity decreased less for 1h, and degraded gradually as time went by and only left 53. 5% of its activity after 6. 5h. While stored at 33℃, the enzyme activity decreased quickly with the time and only left 59. 1% after 1. 5h. The result indicated that storage temperature was a very important influential factor to the activity of reagent Meanwhile, different chemical substance such as acid, alkali, salt and surfactants inhibited the ATP bioluminescent reaction. When the concentration of NaCl reached 1. 5g/L, it could inhibit 52. 5% light production. Triton X-100, acid, and alkali also had some effects on the reaction, while CTAB, SDS and TCA would inhibit the bioluminescent reaction seriously.
