The species of bromine and iodine in aerosol samples were extracted using ultra-pure water-ultrasonic method with different time in-length and pressurizing decomposition with dilute ammonia, respectively. The efficiency of extraction and the stability of bromine and iodine species were compared under different extraction) conditions. Results showed that(1) the efficiency of extraction using pressurizing decomposition, which might destroy some unknown form of organic iodine, was relatively higher than the one by ultrasonic method;(2) I~- was unstable in added standard cellular blank filter during ultrasonic assisted extraction for long time;(3) The optimum condition was ultra-pure water-ultrasonic assisted extraction for 5 min. Moreover), the suitability of glass microfiber filter(GF) and cellular filter(CF) during extraction for bromine and iodine) species in aerosol was also compared, which indicated that GF is favorable for species analysis than CF under different kinds of extraction conditions. Based upon the extraction results, HPLC-ICP-MS approach was developed to analyze bromine and iodine) species in atmospheric aerosol. The total iodine, bromine and species in the aerosol samples collected in Hefei were then determined accordingly. The levels of total bromine and iodine) in Hefei aerosols were 883 and 231 pmol/m~3, respectively. Br~- was found to be dominant species with 68%, while BrO_3~- was undetectable. 70% of total iodine occurred as unidentified forms including soluble organic) iodine and insoluble iodine.

Objective To investigate the current situation of management of institutions of schistosomiasis prevention and control in Hubei Province so as to explore the probable competency building standards for these institutions at the county and township levels. Methods By using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods the institutions of schistosomiasis prevention and control at county and township levels were investigated for the institutional setup staffing and fulfillment func-tions since the reform of 2004. Results Among 63 schistosomiasis endemic counties cities districts of Hubei Province there were 26 independent schistosomiasis control institutions 41.27% there were 24 institutions which were incorporated in-to CDC 38.10% and there were no institutions in 13 counties 20.63% . Among 518 endemic towns there were 299 institu-tions 57.72% . The total staffing size were 1 932 but there were 1 586 82.09% people actually working in the post and therefore there were 346 17.91% empty positions. The average rates of carrying out the six functions were 91.48%-71.19%but only 19.23%of the institutions participated in the comprehensive schistosomiasis control management project and its effect assessment. Conclusion According to the management model for schistosomiasis control institutions under the current institu-tional mechanisms we need a rigorous industry standard to constrain guide and standardize the management and capacity-building of the institutions in different historical periods.
