ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and influence factors of a new silver salt method for determination of arsenic in drinking water. Methods Arsenic was determined at different reaction temperature,acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular, fill weight of lead acetate cotton, and the effect of these factors on assay results was observed. Arsenic in drinking water was determined in accordance with standard test methods (GB/T 5750.6) of the new silver method. Results The recoveries of the arsenic were 75.3% - 93.6%(F =9.21,P < 0.01 ) with reaction temperature at 10 - 30 ℃, and the best reaction temperature was 25 ℃. The recoveries of the arsenic ranged from 80.3% - 91.6%(F =4.67, P< 0.05) when sulfuric acid was 3.0 - 6.0 ml and the best value was 5.0 ml. The recoveries of the honeycomb structural zinc granular(diameter 0.2 - 0.3, 0.3 - 0.4 mm) and button zinc granular were 87.2%, 90.7% and 83.0%, respectively; the best specification was 0.3 - 0.4 mm. The recoveries of zinc granular weight(3 - 5 g ) were 74.6% - 91.7%, respectively; the best was 5 g. The recoveries ranged from 79.6% - 91.3% with fill weight of lead acetate cotton at 25 - 100 mg, the best fill weight was 50 mg.The recoveries of the arsenic were 90.7%, 92.5%, 81.5% and 74.2% with lead acetate cotton length at 0.5 - 2.0 cm,and the best loose-tight degree was 1.0 cm. The stability time of arsine solution was 5.0, 4.0, 2.5 h with corresponding temperature at 20, 25, 30 ℃, respectively. ConclusionsIn order to ensure precision and accuracy of the measurement, it is necessary to control reaction temperature, acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular free from arsenic, fill weight of lead acetate cotton and loose-tight degree in the reaction system.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of caspase-3 in the brain of acutely pentylenetetrazole(PTZ)-kindled rats.MethodsThe caspase-3 positive cells were revealed using immunohistochemical SP method. CMIAS image analysis system was used to analyse the expression of caspase-3 hemi-quantitatively. ResultsFollowing PTZ induced epilepsy, the expression of caspase-3 increased both in the hippocampus and in the cortex, and that was more remarkable in the hippocampus than in the cortex.ConclusionCaspase-3 may be activated during neuronal apoptosis after epilepsy. Hippocampus is more sensitive to the neuronal damage due to epilepsy than the cortex is.

BACKGROUND:In oral warm and moisture circumstance, al oy which contains Be is easily to be eroded to release Be2+. But there is stil no research focusing on beryl ium influence on genotype of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae gene cluster. OBJECTIVE:To investigate Be 2+effect on genotype of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae gene cluster. METHODS:The revived Porphyromonas gingivalis was resuscitated for 48 hours in the anaerobic culture medium with different concentration of Be 2+(10×10-6, 5×10-6, 1.25×10-6). Through PCR amplification and sequencing, we investigated the effects of Be2+RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) When Be on genotypes of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae gene cluster. 2+concentration was 5×10-6, we found the peak of 217 and 257 sites on DNA sequence expressing G/A overlap peak, different from G single peak of the other groups, suggesting the suspicious bases changes, part of the single base G mutated into A. (2) On al concentrations, we found a base group composed of seven A bases was inserted into the 101 site of DNA sequence. Up to now, there is no direct contacts of the mutations occurring to Be2+concentration. Changes of gene may lead to the shifting of the reading frame, the abnormal synthesis of proteins, the change of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimA gene toxicity, and lastly the unbalance of the micro-ecological environment.

Objective To approach the effect of CYP3A5 6986A>G (rs776746) and ABCB1 3435C>T (rs104564) on plasma tacrolimus(FK506) dose adjusted blood trough concentrations(C0/D) in kidney transplanted patients.Method Totally 125 renal transplanted recipients were recruited,and gene sequencing method were used to detect the genotype of CYP3A5 6986A>G and ABCB1 3435C> T.FK506 trough concentration of 125 patients was detected by enzyme multiplies immunoassay technique (EMIT) after the surgery over 6 month.The relevance between the ratio of trough concentration/dosage and polymorphisms was analyzed.Result In 125 renal transplanted receipients,the allele frequency of CYP3A5 and ABCB1 genetic variants was 74% and 34.8%,respectively.After 6 months,the C0/D ration in the homozygous mutant CYP3A5 * 3/* 3 receiptients was significant higher than that in the homozygous wild type * 1/* 3 and heterozygous mutant * 1/* 1 receiptients (P < 0.05).And there was no significant difference of the Co/D ration between CYP3A5 * 1/* 1 and CYP3A5 * 1/* 3 receipients(P>0.05).The the C0/D ration in homozygous wild type ABCB1 T/T and homozygous mutant T/C receipients was significant higher than that in heterozygous mutant C/C receipients (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference of the C0/D ration between T/C and T/T receipients (P> 0.05).Conclusion The study shows that the the polymorphism of CYP3A5 and ABCB1 genes was significantly correlated with the trough C0/D value of the recipients after renal transplantation who were treated by Tacrolimus for more than half a year.The detection of the SNP of the CYP3A5 and ABCB1 will be useful for FK506 dosage adjustment.
