Objective To implement active screening measures for patients in intensive care unit (ICU),early de-tect patients with multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO)colonization,implement contact isolation measures,pre-vent and control MDRO cross transmission.Methods The nasal and rectal swabs of 240 patients who were admit-ted to ICU from September 2012 to May 2013 were performed bacterial culture,patients with colonization of methi-cillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA),extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli ,and ESBLs-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae were conducted contact isolation.Clinically isolated MDROs from ICU patients in September 2011-August 2012 (before active screening)and September 2012-August 2013 (after active screening)were collected and performed antimicrobial resistance analysis.Results Of 240 patients, nasal swabs screening test showed that there were 56(23.33%)patients who were colonized with MRSA,including 22(39.29%)were colonized at the admission to ICU and 34(60.71%)during the ICU stay.Rectal swabs screening test showed that there were 105(43.75%)patients who were colonized with ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae ,72(68.57%)were colonized at the admission to ICU,and 33(31.43%)were colonized dur-ing the period of ICU stay.The incidence density of MDROs before and after implementing active screening were 28.56‰ and 13.71‰ respectively,difference was significant (P < 0.05;RR,2.08 [95%CI ,1.582 - 2.743]). Conclusion MDRO colonization rate is high among ICU inpatients,implementation of comprehensive prevention and control measures against MDROs based on active screening can reduce the spread of MDROs in ICU.

Objective To obtain information on the distribution of serotypes and antimicrobial agents susceptibilities to group B streptococcus(GBS) strains. Methods Bacterial isolates of GBS were obtained from vaginal and cervical tract of pregnant and nonpregnant women in Beijing Tian Tan Hospital. A total of 76 GBS strains were identified finally by Coagglutination. Serotyping was determinted by Standard Lancefield method. Susceptibility to test agents was assessed by determining the mininum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) with agar dilution method that was established by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS). Results Seven serotypes were identified among 76 GBS strains isolates. Type II(33%), III(23%) and Ia(16%) were the predominantly serotypes in pregnant and nonpregnant women. MICs of penicillin G and anpicillin were≤0.06 ?g/ml; MICs of cephazolin,cefuroxime, cefoperozone were 0.006～0.03 ?g/ml; MICs of erythromycin was 0.003～0.03 ?g/ml;MICs of gentamycin was 1～32 ?g/ml,MICs of amikacin was 4～≥64 ?g/ml,nearly 12.8% and 40.4% the strains were resistant to gentamycin and amikacin,respectively. Conclusion Our study provide useful epidemiologic data for preparation of GBS type specific vaccines which can prevent GBS infections and antimicrobial agents susceptibility patterns in China. Routine reports on GBS susceptibolities by clinical laboratories and continuous surveillance for changes in the susceptibility is of considerable clinical importance.

Objective To obtain better insights into transmission dynamics of macrolide resistance genes between human and animal Enterococcus strains.Methods The antimicrobial susceptibility to 8 anti-bioties of 52 Enterococci isolated from animal and 55 Enterococci isolated from human was determined.PCR was used to detect the macrolide resistance genes ermB and mefA,tetracycline resistance genes tetM,and the integrase gene int of Tnl545 of the total 107 strains.Forty-nine ermB positive strains were chosen to be se-quenced.Filter mating experiments were taken.Results The resistance rate to erythromycin were 89.09% and 80.77%for isolates from human and animal:and resistance rate to tetracycline were 80.00%and 67.3l%for isolates from human and animal.respectively.All isolated Enterococci strains were found sensi-tive to vancomycin ermB was detected in 61.82% human Enterococci and 53.85% porcine ones.Identical er-mB gene sequences were found in animal and human Enterococci.Transfer of the ermB gene from porcine E.faecalis to human E.feacalis was successful.and the transfer frequency is 1.2×10-5.Conclusion En-terococci have a high resistance rate to erythromycin and some other antibio tics,especially in pediatric iso-lates:but still very sensitive to glycopeptide.ermB was the predominant genes for macrolide and tetracy-cline.Identical ermB gene sequences were present in animal and human Enterococci and that transfer of the ermB gene from porcine E.faecalis to human E.faecalis and vice versa is possible.but probably occurs at a low frequency.

Objective To distinguish BRO ?-lactamase by use of restriction endonuclease analysis and investigate antibacterial agents resistance of Moraxella catarrhalis(M. Catarrhalis) with different BRO ?-lactamases .Methods Nasopharyngeal swabs of children with respiratory tract infections from the outpatient department of Beijing Children's Hospital were cultured for isolating M.Catarrhalis. BSAC(british society for antimicrobial chemotherapy) agar diffusion test was used to determine antibacterial agents resistance of M.Catarrhalis.Nitrocefin disk was used to detect ?-lactamase. Restriction endonuclease analysis was used to distinguish BRO ?-lactamases . Antibacterial agents resistance of M. Catarrhalis with different bro genes was compared.Results (1)95.0% of the 80 strains were beta-lactamase positive. MIC 90 of ampicillin was 32 ?g/ml and MIC 90 of cefuroxime,cefaclor and cefotaxime were 4 ?g/ml,8?g/ml and 1?g/ml respectively,MIC 90 of tetracycline was 16?g/ml. Among the antibacterial agents,ciprofloxacin was the most sensintive agent.(2)Among 80 strains,6(7.5%) Strains were bro negative,55(68.8%) were bro-1 positive,19(23.8%)were bro-2 positive。Except 2 strains,the results of ?-lactamases were same as the results of nitrocefin disk and restriction endonuclease analysis.(3)Compared with bro-2 positive strains,the MIC value of ampicillin and cefaclor for bro-1 positive strains were higher.Conclusions Antibacterial agents resistance of M. Catarrhalis to ampicillin was sierous in China. It should be strengthened to monitor antibacterial agents resistance of M.Catarrhalis. Restriction endonuclease analysis can play an important role on characterizing bro genes,evaluating antibacterial agents resistance of Moraxella Catarrhalis to ?-lactam and investigating molecular epideminology

Objective To indicate the restriction profiles of pbps in Streptococcus pneumoniae(S.pneumoniae), and relationship between pbps profiles and the penicillin MIC.Methods The E-test MIC method was used to determinate penicillin susceptibility of 132 S.pneumoniae strains consisting of 69 penicillin susceptible S.pneumoniae (PSSP) strains and 63 nonsusceptible S.pneumoniae (PNSP) strains. Furthermore, we compared these strains by detecting restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the PBPs genes pbp1a, pbp2b and pbp2x.Results The RFLP results showed that 9 genotypes were founded for pbp1a, in which 2 were detected from PSSP and some PNSP strains. The other 7 ones were founded mainly in the PNSP with penicillin MIC≥0.25 ?g/ml. Ten genotypes were founded for pbp2b, in which 3 were detected from PSSP and some PNSP strains. The other 7 ones, similar with pbp1a, were founded mainly in the PNSP with penicillin MIC≥0.25 ?g/ml. Thirty-one restrictive patterns were founded for pbp2x. Seventeen patternss from them were detected in PSSP, and 13 ones were founded only in PSSP. The other 14 patterns all were covered PNSP strains. A total of 47 patterns were found according to the three pbps types. Twenty-three patterns from them were detected in PSSP, and 17 ones were founded only in PSSP. The other 24 patterns all were detected in PNSP.Conclusions Results of the study are consistent with the concept that mutations in PBP1a, PBP2b and PBP2x play an important role in the development of resistance to ?-lactam antibiotics by S.pneumoniae. In the meantime, the profiles of pbps can predict penicillin susceptibility.

To analyze the test results of five serum markers of hepatitis B virus (HBV) among university freshmen from 2007 to 2012.Among a total of 10 827 freshmen,there were 5 021 freshmen from 2007 to 2009 with all five serum markers.The overall ratio of HBsAg positive was 4.5％,4.8％,4.8％ and 4.0％ for each year.And it had no statistically significant difference.The overall ratio of single-HBsAb positive was 34.8％,37.4％,29.0％ and 37.9％ for each year and the figure of 2008 was lower than those of 2007 and 2009 (P ＜ 0.01).The overall ratio of five markers all negative were 58.3％,55.4％,63.9％ and 55.8％ for each year and the figure of 2008 was higher than those of 2007 and 2009 (P ＜ 0.01).And 34.5％ of HBsAg positive freshmen were HBsAg(+),HBeAg (+),HBcAb (+) and 44.2％ HBsAg(+),HBeAb(+),HBcAb(+).The prevalence ratio of HBsAg for males was higher than that for females (5.1％ vs.3.2％,P ＜0.01).Among 5 806 freshmen tested during 2010-2012,522(9.0％) had a serum level of alanine transaminase (ALT) ＞ 40 U/L,including HBsAg positive (n =12),single anti-HBs positive (n =213) and five negatives (n =288).Approximate 50％ university freshmen have no anti-HBs indicating a low level of immunity.And the students should acquire the knowledge of hepatitis B,improve the ratio of vaccination,strengthen the monitoring and prevent its spread through concerted measures.

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of action of polypeptide extracts of Eupolyphaga sinensis Walker ( ESW) against oxidative aging.Methods Mice were intraperitoneally injected D-galac-tose for consecutive 20 days to establish an aging mouse model.The model mice were administered with different doses of ESW polypeptide (0, 40, 80, 160 mg/kg/d).The normal activity, movement and anti-stress ability of the mice were ob-served.The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) in blood and different tissues and the content of glutathione ( GSH) and malondialdehyde ( MDA) of the aging mice were assessed by xanthin oxidase activity measurement and spectrophotometry, respectively.The expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-re-lated factor 2 (Nrf2) in Caco-2 cells was detected by immunofluorescence.Results Comparing the control and polypep-tide groups, there were significant decreases of body weight gain, organ indexes, anti-stress ability and activity capacity, the activity of SOD, CAT, GSH-PX and the content of GSH, and an increase of the content of MDA in blood and different tissues in the aging mice.With the increasing dose of polypeptide extracts of ESW, the body weight gain, organ indexes of the liver, spleen and kidney were significantly increased, the static and dynamic exercise time was prolonged in the poly-peptide group, and their abilities of hypoxia tolerance and heat tolerance were close to that of normal controls.The SOD, CAT, GSH-PX activity and GSH level in blood and different tissues were significantly increased, but MDA content de-creased.The expression of Nrf2 in Caco-2 cell nuclei was significantly increased in the polypeptide group, close to that of the positive control group.Conclusions The results of our study show that polypeptide extracts of ESW improve the anti-stress and antioxidative capacity in D-galactose-induced mouse models of oxidative aging by initiating Nrf2-ARE antioxidant signaling pathway, therefore, delay the oxidative aging in mice.
