Journal of Environment and Health 1992;0(04):-
Objective To carry out the risk assessment on health effects of viruses in reused wastewater in city.Methods During May-November in2002,the concentration of total coliform and fecal coliform in water sample s collected from waste water after secondary treatment of wastewater treatment plant and reused waste water treated by conventional wastewater-reuse technical process in Xian Baishiqiao Wastewater Treatmen t Center were determined,and the hypothesis testing on the normal distribution of monitoring data was carried out.Meanwhile the removal efficacy of coliform in wastewater with chlorine disinfection was ob-served.The beta-Possion model,the model for evaluating the infection probability of pathogenic microorganism in drinking water,and Monte Carlo simulated method were used for the risk assessment on health effects of viruses in reused wastewater in city.Re sults The monitoring data on concentrations of fecal coliform in water samples collected from secondarily treated wastewater and reused wastewater showed log-normal distribution.The removal efficacies of coliform from wastewater were4log at condi-tions of7mg /L chlorine and20-minute contact time,and5log at conditions of15mg /L chlorine and20-minutes-contact time.The means of annual risk value of health effects of viruses in reused wastewater were1.21?10 -6 for the reuse of wastewater in greening and4.31?10 -8 for the reuse in irrigation of farmland respectively,the highest risk values for these two reuse methods were all below10 -4 ,the acceptable annual risk value for drinking water ruled by Surface Water Treatment Rules published by USEPA.The probability of annual risk value

BACKGROUND:Central nerve damage and peripheral nerve injury are common clinical problems that have no ideal treatment. Nerve growth factor has an important role in neuronal repairing and growth. But its local injections may have shorts of inactivation and loss. OBJECTIVE:To construct human nerve growth factor beta recombinant plasmids, which are transfected into bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from the rabbit mandible by lentiviral vectors, and to investigate the bioactivity of human nerve growth factor beta. METHODS:pDC316-hNGFβ-mCMV-EGFP plasmids were constructed via lentiviral vectors using Hind III+Not I digestion. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from the rabbit mandible were isolated and cultured, and then transfected by recombinant plasmids. The expression of human nerve growth factor beta in transfected cells was detected by ELISA method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:pDC316-hNGFβ-mCMV-EGFP plasmids were proved to be constructed successful y by gene sequencing and enzyme identification. The transfected cells under a fluorescence microscope emitted green fluorescence, and the fluorescence intensity had no change with incubation time. The expression of human nerve growth factor beta was maintained at a level of 25μg/L at 7 days after celltransfection, and the bioacitivty was increased significnalty.

AIM: To study the suppressive effect of c hu ankezhi (CKZ) injection, a Chinese medicine, on murine allergic contact dermatit is (type IV hypersensitivity). METHODS: Mice were divided into 6 groups according to different medicine treatments: CKZ high, middle, low dose ( CKZⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ) groups, dexamethasone(DEX), benadryl and saline groups. Murine alle rgic contact dermatitis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 2, 4-dinitro fluorobenzene. Different medicines were administrated at 2 h before sensitizatio n on day 0 and day 1, day 2, 2 h before elicitation and 6 h after on day 5. The six experimental groups were compared according to left ear thickness difference (S1), left ear weight difference (S2), body weight difference (S3) and dermal i nflammatory infiltration cell number. RESULTS: Compared with saline group, the left ear swelling and d ermal inflammatory infiltration cell number were significantly reduced in CKZⅠ, Ⅱ,Ⅲ and DEX groups (P

AIM: To explore the inhibitory effect of oxymatrine (OMT) on the allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) stimulated by dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) and its effects on the proliferation of the lymphocytes. METHODS: ① An ACD mouse model was established by stimulation with DNFB, and then the mice were injected intraperitoneally with different dosages of OMT, PBS and hydrocortisone (HCT) respectively, the swelling degree of their auricles was examined. ② Carboxyfluorescein diacetate, succinimidyl ester (CFDA-SE) dye and flow cytometer were used to examine the fluorescence intensity changes of lymphocytes stimulated by polyclonal stimulator ConA and OMT. RESULTS: ① compared with PBS group, OMT possessed the strong inhibitory effect on the ACD caused by DNFB in a dose-dependent manner, and its inhibitory effect was equivalent to the HCT of the same dosage with fewer side effects. ② In vitro experiments proved that OMT (500, 125 and 31 mg/L) had the ability to restrain the proliferation of lymphocytes of mouse. CONCLUSION: OMT possesses an inhibitory effect on the ACD induced by DNFB, and OMT is a kind of immunosuppressor.
