Objective To establish a simple, efficient and low-cost method for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium carrying SSeC gene. Methods In this study, a nano-biosensor ( FAM-P/GO) was successfully established based on the noncovalent assembly of carboxy-fluorescein ( FAM)-labeled probe and graphene oxide ( GO) . The target gene at different concentrations and SSeC gene-harbored bacterium sam-ples were detected by the FAM-P/GO nano-biosensor to evaluate its sensitivity. The specificity of the estab-lished nano-biosensor was evaluated by using DNAs with mismatched base pairs and single-stranded DNAs ( ssDNAs) extracted from various species. Results The established strategy for SSeC gene detection showed a good linear range of 0. 05-1. 0 μmol/L (R2=0. 992 1) with a lower limit of 0. 05 μmol/L. Moreover, the lower detection limit for target bacterium samples was 103 CFU/ml and the fluorescence intensity increased linearly with the concentration from 103 CFU/ml to 108 CFU/ml. The signal-to-noise ( S/N) of the experi-mental group was much greater than that of the control group, which indicated that the establish method was highly specific. Conclusion The FAM-P/GO nano-biosensor was successfully established in this study, which provided a new and possible way for the rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium harboring SSeC gene.

BACKGROUNDTo establish an ADM resistant Lewis lung cancer cell line and to investigate its biological characteristics.
METHODSThe multidrug-resistant cell line was gradually induced by ADM from Lewis lung cancer cell line (L3-8), its growth characteristics and cancinogenicity were observed. The fluorescent density of ADM and Rh-B in the cells were analyzed by IPP image analysis system. The ADM concentration in cells was assayed with fluorescent meter. The IC50 was evaluated by MTT assay and the drug resistant index was counted.
RESULTSThe drug resistant Lewis lung cancer cell line, L3-8/ADM, which can grow in the medium containing 0.4mg/l ADM was acquired after 14 months selective culture. Its tumor generatic rate was 10/10. When the L3-8/ADM was cultured in 0.15mg/l ADM and general 1640 medium, the doubling time was 22.0h and 21.8h separately. After culturing in 4mg/l ADM and Rh-B medium, the fluorescent density ratio of L3-8/ADM and L3-8 were 2.82:1 and 2.65:1 separately. The ADM concentration of L3-8/ADM was only 64.7% of its parental, but there was no significant difference in their ADM release rate. Except for ADM, L3-8/ADM was resistant to DNR, VCR, MIT and CDDP in different degrees.
CONCLUSIONSL3-8/ADM cell is a typical MDR cell line. The cell membrane obstruction of drug infiltration might be the cause of drug resistance. This study will provide a basis for the establishment of lung cancer MDR animal model.

BACKGROUNDTo study the cell immunity induced by lung cancer B7 vaccine, FLB2C cells.
METHODSCompared withparental lung cancer cell LA795 line, proliferation of mouse T lymphocytes stimulated by FLB2C was observed through mixed lymphocyte culture. CTLL cell MTT test was used to detect whether FLB2C stimulated T lymphocyte to secrete IL-2. After immunized with the FLB2C and LA795 cells, the CTL activity of mouse was observed in vivo.
RESULTSThe spleen lymphocyte proliferation stimulated by FLB2C cells was remarkably stronger than that by LA795 . FLB2C might stimulated the T lymphocyte to secrete IL-2 in vitro, but LA795 didn't. FLB2C cell could induce CTL activity in vivo and the induced CTL killed FLB2C cells and LA795 in vitro, with the killing rate of 34% and 25.3% respectively; while LA795 induced CTL killing rate being 10.5% and 12.25% respectively (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSFLB2C can stimulate T cell immunity in vivo or in vitro. The effect of FLB2C is significantly stronger than that of LA795 . The results suggest that FLB2C may be used to treat lung cancer through improving immunity. This provides immunological basis for applying FLB2C as a vaccine to clinical use.

Fluid therapy is a crucial treatment for patients with extensive burn, which affects patients′prognosis directly. Accurate urine output measurement plays an irreplaceable role in guiding fluid resuscitation in clinic. As one of the best indexes in traditional burn resuscitation, urine output comprehensively reflects systemic circulation. However, it doesn′t fully reflect all the specific chapters of microcirculation and systemic circulation and deficient cellular oxygen metabolism exactly. We need to use urine output combined with other shock parameters to ensure adequate fluid replacement. Currently, the most common way of urine output monitoring is manual measurement. The article reviews the application of urine output monitoring in guiding fluid resuscitation of burn shock.
