Bioimprinting is a new developed technique to improve the characteristics of enzymes.Bioimprinting by lauric acid was conducted to improve the esterification activity of lipase PS in sol-gel immobilization process with methyltrimethoxysila(MTMS) and tetramethoxysila(TMOS) as the precursors.Results generated by checking the esterification activity and scanning electron microscope showed that bioimprinting can enhance the specific activity and thermal stability of lipase PS.The bioimprinting system was optimized by orthogonal experiment,and the optimal condition for lipase bioimprinting is water/silane molar ration(R) 12,polyethylene glycol(PEG) 120?l,and lauric acid 0.15 mmol.Compared with the free enzyme and the non-imprinted enzymes,the specific activity of imprinted enzymes has been improved 44.3 fold and 2.4 fold,respectively.Imprinted lipase show better thermal stability,and the relative activity is 58% after incubated in 80 ℃ for 0.5 h,while no activity was detected for the free enzyme.

Bacillus subtilis B6-1 was used as an original strain for mutagenic treatment and a defined medium was used as the selective medium. A mutant named B. subtilis W003 was isolated after three serial ultraviolet (UV) irradiations and one diethyl sulfate (DES) treatment. The ?-PGA yield on a rotary shaker was enhanced from 10.9 g/L in parental strain to 20.5 g/L in the mutant. It was illustrated by single factor experiments that the optimal carbon and nitrogen sources were glucose and (NH4)2SO4 respectively. The optimal fermentation medium was achieved by orthogonal test. In the optimal medium, a ?-PGA yield of 45.3 g/L was obtained after 36 h cultivation.

ObjectiveTo discusses the MSCT multiplanar reconstruction manifestation (MPR) of localized fat collection adjaction to subdiaphragmatic inferior vena cava (IVCfat).MethodsThe thoracic and abdominal MSCT scan data of 8246 patients were browsed,45 patients with presumed IVCfat on axial CT scans were further studied prospectively with MSCT MPR.The predisposing position of IVCfat and its relationship with IVC were observed.It was divided into two kinds of intraluminal type and extraluminal type according to the angle of IVCfat with respect of the wall of IVC.The other 50 patients without IVCfat were randomly selected as the control group.The sagittal inclination angle (SIA) and diameter ratio (DR) between supra- and sub-diaphragmatic IVC between the two groups were compared by using t test.Results The detection rate was 0.55％ (45/8246).Of which hepatic vein lacuna 8 patients,subdiaphragmatic gap medial to IVC 28 patients and IVC groove 9 patients.The shape of IVCfat showed mainly for the round,oval and crescents on axial CT scans,of 15 patients intraluminal type,4 showed target signs .The shape of IVCfat showed mainly for half-moon at MPR.The SIA and DR at IVCfat group were 21.62° ± 8.42°and 2.01 ±0.84 respectively,at control group were 16.75° ±7.82°(t =1.594,P ＞0.05) and 1.31 ±0.28(t =2.341,P ＜ 0.05 ) respectively.ConclusionThe round,oval or half of limited fat density shadow adjaction to subdiaphragmatic inferior vena cava which similar to in the lumen is the characteristic performance of IVCfat,it may be an anatomical variation.

Objective: To analyze the association between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and pancreatic cancer. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed to explore the positive rate of serum hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) in patients with pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, diabetes mellitus and general population. Z test was used to compare the rate of HBV infection between the samples and general population. The rates among the samples were compared by Chi-square test. Results: A total of 3,701 registered patients seen in our hospital between January 1st 2003 and March 31st 2009 were collected. There were 230 pancreatic cancer patients with a positive rate of serum HBsAg of 16.1%, 1,188 lung cancer patients with a positive rate of serum HBsAg of 10.7%, and 2,283 patients with diabetes mellitus with a positive rate of serum HBsAg of 11.6%. There was no statistical significance in Z-test results between lung cancer patients and general population (Z=1.104, P=0.163), but the Z-test results between patients with diabetes mellitus and general population showed a statistical significance (Z=2.98, P=0.002). The positive rate of HBsAg was higher in pancreatic cancer patients than that in lung cancer patients (OR=1.60, 95% Cl: 1.077-2.382, r=5.487, P=0.019). Similar results were found between pancreatic cancer patients and diabetic patients (OR=1.46, 95% CI: 1.004-2.123, r=3.965, P=0.046). Conclusion: The positive rate of HBsAg is high in pancreatic cancer patients. There might be an association between HBV infection and pancreatic cancer.
