BACKGROUND:Nano-hydroxyapatite as a surface modification material that is bonded to the surface of the zirconia ceramics upon sintering at high temperature can improve bone-inducing activity and bone bonding strength of the zirconia ceramics. Moreover, the sintering temperature is crucial for performance and bonding of the composite. OBJECTIVE:To detect the shear strength of nano-hydroxyapatite ceramics coating bonded to zirconia ceramics at different sintering temperatures. METHODS:Nano-hydroxyapatite slurry was prepared using sol/gel technology. Thereafter, 20 zirconium green bodies were coated with nano-hydroxyapatite slurry and randomly divided into four groups. Then, the specimens were put into non-pressure sintering furnace and sintered at 1 300, 1 400, 1 500, and 1 550℃, respectively. At last, we measured the shear strength of al the specimens after sintering by universal testing machine, and analyze the type of fractures. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: With the rising of sintering temperature, the shear strength of the specimens was gradualy increased, and there were significant differences between the four groups [(4.04±1.19), (6.60±0.95), (16.51±1.93), (80.47±19.31) MPa,P < 0.05]. Within the scope of 1 550℃, the sintering temperature was positively relative to the shear strength of specimens. These findings indicate that in the certain temperature range, the higher the sintering temperature, the greater the shear strength of the bonding interface between zirconia and nano-hydroxyapatite. When the sintering temperature is 1 550℃, the shear strength of the bonding interface is the highest.

Objective:To establish the method for detecting lower respiratory infections (LRIs) bacterialpathogens using nanopore sequencing, and evaluate the feasibility of this method.Methods:Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples from 33 patients with LRIs who visited the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Beijing Hospital from July 2019 to September 2020 were collected.Nanopore 16S amplicon sequencing were performed on these samples. In order to evaluate the clinical value of the nanopore sequencing, χ 2 test was used to analyze the pathogen differences between the detection rate and pathogen types results found with using the nanopore 16S sequencing and the results found with bacterial culture. Results:The process and method of nanopore sequencing used in the detection of the LRIs pathogens were established. The pathogen detection rate of the 16S sequencing was higher than that of the traditional bacterial culture (75.8% [25/33], 45.5% [15/33], χ2=5.140, P<0.05). From the 25 positive samples found with nanopore 16S sequencing, 16 pathogens were detected, including Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptomonas maltophilia, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Acinetobacter junii, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus gallinarum, Corynebacterium striatum, Mycobacterium paraintracellulare, Serratia marcescens, Achromobacter insuavis, Citrobacter murliniae and Mycoplasma pneumoniae. More than 6 pathogens were tested in clinical culture, including Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Streptomonas maltophilia (χ2=7.949, P<0.05). 16S sequencing aligned to species level sequences accounted for 80.0 (60.0, 86.0)% of the genus level. The results obtained by using16S sequencing and bacterial culture were consistent in 11 (33.3%) samples. Conclusions:Nanopore 16S amplicon sequencing can quickly identify pathogenic bacteria from BALF in LRIs patients. Nanopore 16S amplicon sequencing has a high detection rate, it can detect more pathogens than traditional bacterial culture, and it can also identify most bacteria to the species level. This technology is a very promising platform with broad application prospects.
