The sensor of naringin(NG), a non-electroactive substance, was prepared based on the molecular imprinting technique.Using cyclic voltammetry technique (scan rate is 100 mV/s), the naringin imprinting sensitive film, poly-o-aminophenol was coated on the surface of a graphite electrode in the presence of naringin which was considered as the template, and characterized by SEM and X-ray reflective spectrophotometry (XRR).Using K_3Fe(CN)_6 as an electroactive marker, the electrochemical properties of the NG sensor were investigated by CV, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammmetric and chronoamperometric.The results showed that the imprinted electrode was significantly different from the non imprinted electrode in morphologies and electrochemical properties, and a linear relationship between the peak current and the naringin concentration was found in the range of 6.0 × 10 ~(-5)-1.4 × 10 ~(-4) mol/L with a detec tion limit of 1.6 × 10 ~(-5) mol/L.Moreover, the imprinted electrode exhibited a good selectivity and rapid response to the naringin template molecules, as well as an excellent reproducibility(RSD = 1.8 %, n=5).

Objective To investigate the changes of brain volumes in neuromyelitis optica (NMO)patients using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) method, and preliminarily explore the pattern of cerebral anatomical impairment. Methods Twenty-three clinically defined NMO patients and 15 gender and age matched healthy volunteers underwent 3-dimensional (3D) fast spoiled gradient echo (FSPGR) sequence scanning on 3.0 Tesla MR systen. Raw data was processed and analyzed using statistical parametric mapping (SPM) 5. Whole brain volumes included grey matter volume (GMV), white matter volume (WMV), total intracranial volume (TIV), grey matter fraction (GMF), white matter fraction (WMF),brain tissue fraction (BTF) and regional brain volumes between the two groups were compared by independent samples t-test and an Pearson were performed to compare the regional brain volumes and the ages. Results GMV of NMO group[(610. 2 ± 55.0) ml] was significantly decreased comparing to healthy control group[(657. 2 ± 36. 3) ml] (t = - 2. 915, P ＜ 0. 05). The age of NMO patients [(40 ± 9) years old] showed negative correlation with GMF [(42. 5 ± 2. 6) %] (r = - 0. 673, P ＜ 0. 05). Regional brain volume analysis showed decreased GMV in left insula and bilateral posterior cingutates in NMO patients,while decreased WMV was found in left frontal and left parietal white matter. Conclusion VBM could detect brain volume changes sensitively. Total grey matter volume in NMO patients was decreased comparing to HC group. Regional grey matter atrophy in NMO patients occurred in left insular and bilateral posterior cingutates, regional white matter atrophy occurred in left frontal and left parietal lobe.

Objective To evaluate the changes of physical activity status of residents in Beijing Yayuncun(Asian Games Village)Community.Methods A total of 1765 permanent residents over 15 from 600 families living in Yayuncun Communities since 2000 were selected in this prospective study.Thebaseline survey was carried out with the Questionnaire for Residents of Beijing Typical Community in 2004 and 2005.From 2006 to 2008,same questionnaire was used for the follow-up survey,and 1412 residents were responded to the questionnaire.Results The knowledge levels related to physical exercise of Yayuncun residents elevated(P＜0.01).The source of knowledge gain from Olympics Games promotion,specialized community lectures and intemet increase significantly(P＜0.01),that from other media decreased(P＜0.01).The exercise rate in community was higher than in other sites(P＜0.01)and increased significantly (P＜0.05);while doing exercise in charged sites decreased(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that regular physical exercise was related to age,BMI,exercise-related knowledge,exercise sites,attitude for sport facilities and chronological order.Conclusion During the preparation for the Beijing Olympic Games.the status of physical exercise of residents in Yayuncun Community presented the positive trends.

Objective:To study the expression levels of nuclear factor kappa B, Bcl-2 associated K and TNF-αproteins to discuss the effects of NF-κB and Bak proteins in the pathogenesis of UC.Methods:Eighty clean grade of adult Sprague-Dawley( SD) rats were used,male and female in half and then rando mly selected sixty as the model group,another twenty as the control group.SD rats model were manufactured by a compound method:Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid ( TNBS )+ethanol.We observed and assessed colonic mucosa by the general morphology and histological changes.To applicated immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR methods to detected the protein and mRNA expression levels of NF-κB,Bak and TNF-αin the model groups and the control group and to analysed their relationships.Results:The successful rate of making model was 97%.The number of inflammatory cells in the model groups more than the control(P<0.01).Group immunohistochemical and RT-PCR,NF-κB and TNF-αproteins and mRNA in UC colon epithelium cells and inflammatory cells were higher than the control(P<0.01).Bak protein in inflammatory cells were lower than the control(P<0.01),but there was no statistical significance in epithelial cells(P>0.05).The expression levels of NF-κB,TNF-αincreased as the histological grade increased(P<0.05),however,the expression level of Bak decreased(P<0.05).NF-κB in colonic mucosa of rats with UC had a significantly positive correlation with that of TNF-α(r=0.892,P<0.01),and negatively correlated with that of Bak(r=-0.793,P<0.01).Conclusion:The levels of NF-κB and Bak may be related to the occurrence and development of UC.

Objective:To investigate the content rationality of antimicrobial agent thimerosal in chloramphenicol eye drops. Meth-ods:Chloramphenicol eye drops with thimerosal at different concentrations were prepared, and the antimicrobial activity was studied. Results:When the test solution contained 0. 02 mg·ml-1 thimerosal, the antimicrobial activity could achieve the requirement in the pharmacopoeia. Conclusion:Thimerosal at different concentrations in the commercial chloramphenicol eye drops all can reach the anti-microbial effect. However, the thimerosal concentration in some eye drops is unreasonably high, which should be reduced.

Objective To analyse the X-ray and CT manifestations of sacral primary tumor.Methods 10 cases with sacral primary tumors verified by pathology,including sacral chordoma(n=5),giant cell tumor(n=2),chondrosarcoma(n=2),neurilemmomas(n=1),were analysed retrospectively.Results (1)The manifestations of CT and X-ray of sacral chordoma presented as a midline destructive lesion,involving prominently at sacrum 3～5,with flocculent calcification and irregular bone crests.(2)Giant cell tumor involved predominately sacrum 1～3 with expansile destructive area and commonly in young adults.(3)Chondrosarcoma and neurilemmomas had difference characteristic on X-ray film and CT.One case with chondrosarcoma had bone destruction in sacrum 1～3 and giant mass grow into pelvis.Conclusion CT combined with X-ray film is helpful in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of sacral primary tumors.
