Anionic surfactants in waters were determined using on-line double microporous membrane extraction-flow injection analysis method. This method was based on the extraction of the ion-association complex (λ_(max)=650 nm) which formed from methylene blue cation and anionic surfactants. The on-line double microporous membrane liquid-liquid extraction phase separators were adopted. Optimization of variables of the flow injection manifold, groove mechanical dimension of the phase separator, and pore size of the membrane was performed. The proposed method had a linear range of 25.0-1000.0 μg/L(r≥0.999). The detection limit was 4.28 μg/L. The relative standard deviation(n=7) of different concentration was 0.7%-6.0%. The recovery was between 96%-110% and the sample throughput was 18 h-1. The method was applied to the analysis of standard Reference materials with satisfactory results. For practical application, two water samples were analyzed with the established method.

Objective To investigate the effect of Danzhijiangtang capsule on serum,fat in type 2 diabetic rats.Methods The model of type 2 diabetes mellitus rats were established by injecting small does streptozotocin(STZ)into abdomen and feeding high sucrose-fat diet.All the rats were divided randomly into five groups.The level of blood glucose,serum insulin,insulin sensitivity index,blood fat(triglyceride, cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein),free fatty acid after treated were examined. Results Danzhijiangtang capsule could decrease the level of blood fat.Conclusion Danzhijiangtang capsule could improve the blood fat in type 2 diabetic rats.

BACKGROUND:Denis B thoracolumbar burst fractures are common spinal injury and may be involved in the upper end plate injury. Fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation are used to repair above injury. This scheme can effectively achieve the aim of correcting deformity, but the trabecular bone after crushing cannot be fuly recovered. OBJECTIVE:To observe the repair effect of fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body on Denis B thoracolumbar burst fracture, and compare with fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation alone. METHODS:Clinical data of 70 cases of Denis B thoracolumbar burst fractures, who were treated in the Department of Orthopedics, Zhangjiagang Aoyang Hospital from January 2012 to December 2014, were retrospectively analyzed. According to repair scheme, they were equaly divided into two groups. Patients in the control group received fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation. Patients in the observation group received fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body. Oswsetry Disability Index, height of anterior border of injured vertebral body, lower back pain visual analogue scale and vertebral kyphosis Cobb’s angle were compared and observed between the two groups before repair, 1 week, 3 and 6 months after repair. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in Visual Analogue Scale was detected at 1 week, 3 and 6 months after repair between the observation and control groups (P > 0.05). Oswsetry Disability Index was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). No significant difference in the height of anterior border of injured vertebral body was detected between the observation and control groups (P > 0.05). Cobb’s angle was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation + artificial bone graft in vertebral body obtained good repair effects on Denis B thoracolumbar burst fracture, not only effectively corrected Cobb’s angle and the height of anterior border of injured vertebral body, but also helped to restore normal spinal loads by filing bone in the injured vertebral body.

AIM:To investigate the differences among Lenstar 900, A-scan ultrasound and keratometer in measurement of axial length ( AL ) , anterior chamber depth ( ACD ) and corneal curvature ( K1 , K2 , Km ) , and evaluate the consistency of the instruments, with the purpose providing references for the clinical application of Lenstar 900.
METHODS: In this study we picked up 36 patients ( 50 eyes ) underwent cataract surgery, and lens nucleus hardness were under level IV. Before the operation, AL, ACD and K1 , K2 , Km were measured by Lenstar 900, A-scan ultrasound and keratometer respectively. The differences between the results were compared by the paired t-test. The correlation of the results was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis, and the consistency was measured by Bland-Ahamn method.
RESULTS: The mean AL and ACD values measured by Lenstar 900 and A-scan ultrasound had no significantly statistic differences (P>0. 05). The K1, K2, Km measured by Lenstar 900 and keratometer were not significantly statistical different (P>0. 05). The results measured by these three instruments had close linearity correlation ( r>0.9, P<0. 01). The consistency of the results was well in Bland-Ahamn analysis.
CONCLUSION:The preoperatively biometric result of Lenstar 900, A - scan ultrasound and keratometer in patients with cataract are all reliable, and they can be substituted by each other. However, Lenstar 900 can not only measure AL, ACD and corneal curvature at the same time, but also cornal thickness, lens thickness, white to white, pupil size, optical axis eccentricity, retinal thickness and so on. It has a number of advantages such as non-touching, convenient and efficient, and can be recommended to use widely.

Carotenoids play an important role in regulating the hydrogen production of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. The carotenoids of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. grown in acetate medium were extracted by using acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) solvent and were separated by using thin-layer chromatography on silica-gel plate. The qualitative and quantitative of the carotenoids were analyzed by spectrometry. The results showed that the carotenoids were completely extracted three times with acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) in two hours. The ultrasonication had little effect on yield of carotenoids. The yield of carotenoids was 2.81mg/g wet cell. There were 4 spots on the silica-gel plate in the order of yellow, red, light red and light yellow. Yellow spot and red spot were the dominant composition of carotenoid in Rhodobacter sp. The spectrometry data showed that the yellow and red component might be the spheroidene and spirilloanthin respectively.
