Objective To investigate the genotype and epidemiology of plasmid‐mediated AmpC β‐lactamases produced by the clinical strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae .Methods A total of 176 clinical nonrepetitive cefoxitin non‐sensitivity isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae was collected from July 2011 to August 2012 .Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for AmpC enzyme gene amplification and DNA sequencing were carried out for genotype of AmpC beta‐lactamases .Results The results of PCR showed that the positive rate of ampC of the 176 strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae AmpC was 18 .2% ,mainly DHA type ,counting for 59 .4% ,CIT counting for 37 .5% ,EBC counting for 3 .1% .The positive rate of ampC of Escherichia coli was 11 .4% ,mainly CIT type ,counting for 77 .8% ,the positive rates of DHA type and EBC type both were 11 .1% .The positive rate of ampC of Klebsiella pneumoniae were 23 .7% ,mainly DHA type ,counting for 78 .3% ,CIT type count‐ing for 21 .7% .The results of DNA sequencing showed that there were 18 strains DHA‐1 type and 1 strain ampC gene type of Morganella morganii in DHA type strains ,the concordance rate was 97 .0% ,10 CIT type strains was CMY‐2 type ,1 strain was CMY‐42 ,one strain was CMY‐4 type ,EBC type was ampC gene type of Enterobacter cloacae ,the concordance rate was 99 .0% .A total of 32 strains of gene sequencing were registered as KJ127248 - KJ127279 in GenBank .Conclusion The main genotypes of plasmid‐mediated ampC enzyme produced by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were CMY‐2 and DHA‐1 respectively .

In recent years, the potential value of nonstructural protein (NSP) 2C was well documented for distinguishing foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) in infected animals and vaccinated animals. In order to develop a more sensitive approach to detect natural infected FMDV while there is no interact with vaccinated FMDV, we incorporated a major epitope region of 2C with whole 3AB coding region within NSP and expressed in Escherichia coli. We got a 47.6 kD fusion protein named 2C'3AB. The product showed a specific reactivity with FMDV from serum of infected animal by using Western blotting analysis. This suggests that this protein could be applied to distinguish infected FMDV and vaccinated FMDV. We further compared 2C'3AB protein with 3ABC fusion protein, another available protein used for detecting infected FMDV, using indirect ELISA assay. The results showed that 2C'3AB-ELISA had higher sensitivity than that of 3ABC-ELISA for distinguishing infected FMDV and vaccinated FMDV of sera from epidemic region. Therefore, this recombinant protein 2C'3AB is a good candidate protein to develop more sensitive method to differentiate infected FMDV and vaccinated FMDV from vaccinated animals. This finding will increase our capability to check the infectious virus carrier and finally improve FMDV infection control.

Objective:To explore the sensitivity of the normal population to nasolabial subunits.Methods:From 2016 to 2017, we took frontal photos of 25 (20 to 40 years old) people with basically normal nasolabial subunits in West China Hospital of Stomatology. The lip subunits were adjusted at 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 times magnification or translation to obtain photos of different degrees of malformation of the nasal and lip subunits. A total of 189 young healthy people [96 males, 93 females; age (20.00±1.32) years old] without correction surgery and no maxillofacial deformities were selected to judge the facial aesthetic visual effect of their vision on the nasolabial subunit.Results:The peak sensitivity of nasolabial subunits is the nostril symmetry and columella deviation followed by lip symmetry.Conclusions:Young healthy people have high aesthetic visual effects on nostril symmetry and nasal column translation facial translation, average facial visual effects on lip symmetry and the lowest facial aesthetic visual effects on lip peak symmetry.
