Nitrogen removal techniques based on Anammox process are developing rapidly these years. The distribution and diversity of Anammox have become important research directions. A variety of Anammox have been detected till now, of which only Kuenenia and Brocadia are often detected in wastewater treatment systems. In addition, in a single niche there is only one type of Anammox bacteria. However, the distribution mechanism and transformation of Anammox bacteria in different niches are still ambiguous. Therefore, the distribution of Anammox in various conditions was summarized and analyzed in this article. And the key factors influencing the distribution of Anammox were concluded, including substrate concentration and the specific growth rate, sludge properties and microbial niche, the joint action and influence of multiple factors. The engineering significance research on the distribution and influencing factors of Anammox bacteria in the sewage system and proposed research prospects were expounded.

Objective To explore the value of lymphatic mapping (LM) and sentinel lymph node(SLN) analysis in laparoscopic colectomy for colon carcinoma. Methods Thirty-two patients with clinically localized colonic neoplasms were subjected to submucosal injection of isosulfan blue dye (0.5-1.0 mL) via a colonoscope during operation. Blue-stained lymphatics were visualized through the laparoscope and followed to the SLN,which was tagged. The colectomy was completed in standard fashion. All lymph nodes were stained by hematoxylin and eosin,and multiple sections of each SLN were examined by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining using cytokeratin antibody. Results At least one SLN was identified laparoscopically in all patients. The SLN accurately predicted the tumor status of the nodal basin in 94% of cases. In 8 cases (25%),an unexpected lymphatic drainage pattern altered the extent of mesenteric resection. The SLN was negative by HE staining in 4 (13%) cases,which were demonstrated positive for micrometastases through immunohistochemical staining. Conclusions SLN mapping during laparoscopic colon resection can alter the margins of resection and in combination with immunohistochemical staining may improve staging,which may more accurately assign patients to prospective protocols.

Objective To screen the mimic epitopes of Rh(D)blood group antigens and identify their immunity from phage display peptide library.Methods A twelve mer phage peptide library was biopanned with anti-Rh(D)monoclonal antibody immobilized on plastic surface.After three round panning,thirty-five clones were randomly selected and positive clones were identified by ELISA and cross-reaction,followed by antibody competition inhibition assay and DNA sequencing to obtain the mimic epitopes of Rh (D)blood type antigens.The target phage clones were characterized and the antigenicity was analyzed by Western blot.Results After the third round screening,phages were enriched,and eleven positive clones were obtained.According to sequencing and competition inhibition analysis,the same"-WP-Q-"structure existed in seven of the eleven clones,and they had more than 40%inhibition ratio.The other clones had no same characteristics with low inhibition ratio possibly due to non-specific binding.Western blot analysis indicated that these phage clones could be specifically recognized by the anti-Rh(D)serum and they shared the same antigenicity of Rh(D)protein.Conclusions Rh(D)mimotope of"-WP-Q-"structure is successfully obtained by phage peptide library screening with anti-Rh(D)monoelonal antibody.The results lay the foundation for further exploration of pathogenesis and vaccine development of Rh(D)hemolytic diseases of newborn.

Methods In the present study, 69 male patients with essential hypertension at different stages were compared with a group of age-matched normotensive controls. β-adrenoreceptor maximum bound volume (Bmax) in pedpheml lymphocytes was measured by 3H-dihydroalprenolol(3 H-DHA) radio ligand binding.β-adrenoreoeptor responsiveness was determined by Salbutamol(injection). Results In patients with essential hypertension at stages Ⅰ and Ⅱ, Bmax was significantly higher (P<0.01 and P<0.001, respectively) and the chronotropic doses of Salbutamol reqaired to increase the heart rate by 30 beats/min (CD30) were significantly lower(P<0.01 and P<0.001,respectively) than in age-matched normotensive control subjects.In patients with essential hypertension at stage Ⅲ, Bmax was significantly lower and CD30 was significantly higher (both P<0.01) than those in the age-matched normotensive control subjects.Bmax was significantly higher and CD30 was significantly lower (both P<0.001) in patients with essential hypertension and with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) than that in patients with essential hypertension but without LVH. In patients with essential hypertension and heart failure, Bmax was significantly lower and CD30 was significantly higher (both P<0.001) than those in patients with essential hypertension without heart failure.Conclusions The changes of β-adrenoreceptor density and function were related to hypertension,hypertension complicated with ventricular hypertrophy,and heart failure. They may be viewed as indexes of the condition in the patients with essential hypertension.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo study of the relationship of age and climate with the nasal mucosa lesions.METHODSAll the patients met with the inclusive criteria were registered and followed-up once a month and their nasal mucosal lesions were observed through nasal speculum and/or nasal endoscope. The recording data was analyzed by SPSS17.0 software.RESULTSA total of 259 patients, 555 person-times and 957 lesion spots were observed. The nasal mucosa was injured by airflow with the highest incidence rate from October to next year April. Patients numbers gradually increased after August, and significantly increased at November, December (P<0.05). Children aged from 2 to 12 years old and the adults aged from 40 to 80 years old were susceptible population (P<0.05), the incidence rate had a negative relation with humidity (P<0.05). The susceptible spots of the lesion were ranked as follows: Little area, inferior turbinate, mucosa of the both side of the deviated nasal septum, inferior meatus, middle meatus, middle turbinate and olfactory area. CONCLUSIONNasal mucosal injury relates to age and seasons. The nasal cavity airflow may be a factor of these lesions.

Aim To develop a HPLC method for the determination of the concentration of 1,8-TMP rhein in rat plasma and study the pharmacokinetics of 1,8-TMP rhein in rat plasma after single dose i. v. administration of 1,8-TMP rhein (2, 4, 8 mg·kg - 1 ). Methods Emodin was used as an internal standard. Plasma sam-ples were extracted with methanol and analyzed by HPLC. The mobile phase was methanol - 0. 1% for-mic acid water (78 ∶ 22, V/ V), with a flow rate of 1. 0 mL·min - 1 and UV 275 nm as the detection wave-length. The plasma concentration of 1,8-TMP rhein in rats was determined by HPLC after single-dose intrave-nous injection in rats with 2,4 and 8 mg·kg - 1 of 1,8-TMP rhein, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were caclulated by DAS 2. 1. Results The result of cali-bration curve was linear over the range of 0. 05 ~ 10. 00 mg·L - 1 (r = 0. 996 2). The lower limit of quantifica-tion was 0. 05 mg · L - 1 . The intra-day and inter-day precision (RSD% ) were both lower than 6% , and the extraction recoveries were higher than 88% , respec-tively. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study after i. v. administration of 1,8-TMP rhein in rats with a dose of 2,4 and 8 mg· kg - 1 . The T1 / 2 was (68. 35 ± 1. 36), (69. 32 ± 2. 1) and (69. 32 ± 2. 03) min, respectively. The AUC0 - t was ( 101. 03 ± 24. 90 ), ( 144. 79 ± 3. 29 ) and (231. 92 ± 19. 30 ) min · mg · L - 1 , respectively. Conclusion A simple and specific HPLC method for the analysis of 1,8-TMP rhein is successfully developed and applied to a pharmacokinetic study in rat plasma.
