In the presence of silver ion, Mn2+ could be electro-oxidized to potassium hypermanganate in phosphoric acid solution, which could effectively react with pyrocatechol in acid solution and luminol in sodium hydroxide solution to produce chemiluminescence. On the basis of this, a novel indirect approach for the detection of Mn2+ was established. The effect of silver ions on the electrochemical oxidation of Mn2+was studied. when 1. 5 ×10-5 mol/L Ag+ and 0. 01 mol/L phosphoric acid solution were used in the process of electrochemical oxidation, the CL intensity could be up to the maximum value after the above solution was electrolyzed for 2 min. The relation of CL intensity and Mn2+concentration in the solutions at different pH and the selectivity were also investigated. when the pyrocatechol was used as luminescent reagent in the acidic medium, the CL intensity was linearly to the Mn2+concentration in the range of 1. 82×10-7-7. 27×10-5 mol/L with excellent selectivity. Common ions had little interferences in the determination of Mn2+. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Mn2+ in surface water and drinking water with satisfactory results.

Objective To detect fetal RhCcEe genotype from fetal DNA in maternal plasma for noninvasive prenatal diagnosis.Methods DNA from maternal plasma sample was extracted by use of QIAamp DNA Kit. The existence of fetal DNA was confirmed by amplified fetal SRY gene. The fetal RhCcEe gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from 30 pregnant maternal plasma. The results of fetal RhCcEe genotype were evaluated retrospectively by the serologic analysis of infant and pregnant woman RhCcEe phenotype.Results Among the 30 samples, 13 were the same phenotypes between mother and infant, 17 were different. When mother phenotypes were RhCC, cc, EE and ee homozygous, the deleted allele gene can be successfully amplified from mother plasma.Conclusion Noninvasive fetal RhCcEe genotyping is reliable. When the mother was homogyzous, genotyping the fetal CcEe alleles was very significant and useful for HDN (hemolysis disease of newborn) diagnosis and therapy.
