This research adopted silt as the sample,and the five highest hydrogen production performing strains contained in the sample were isolated. The strain whose hydrogen production was the highest was identified as Enterobacter cloacae by the analysis of 16S rDNA sequencing and comparison. It is showed by Plackett-Burman Experimental Design that only glucose,citric buffer and reducing agent had significant effects on hydrogen production by Enterobacter cloacae FML-C1. The path of steepest ascent was undertaken to approach the optimal response region of those three factors. Central Composite Design(CCD) and Response Surface Methodology(RSM) were employed to investigate the interaction of the variables and to ascertain the optimal values of the factors,which finally led to the maximum hydrogen production(VH2) . The theoretical optimal medium conditions were:glucose 21.5 g/L,citric buffer 13.6 mL/L,reducing agent10.0 mL/L. The five tentative tests matched this model well. The final VH2 was up to 2347.4 mL/L,which was 127.42% enhanced in comparison to the original. The result shows that PB experiment design and RSM analytical method work well in selecting factors which have significant influences on the hydrogen production and,moreover,achieve the ideal optimal result.

Objective:
To understand the cognition and attitudes of men who have sex with men (MSM) towards HIV testing and explore in-depth reasons preventing them from testing.
Methods:
The function of "opinion" in Blued, a gay geo-social networking application (GSN), was adopted to collect qualitative data of ideas and attitudes towards HIV testing of the users between December 2017 and January 2018. The data was analyzed based on grounded theory approach.
Results:
28 269 Blued users participated in the activity and 1 977 posted comments. Four key themes were identified, i.e. no/low risk of contracting HIV, stigmatization of HIV testing, long-term relationship and conventional impediments of HIV testing.
Conclusion
The cognition and attitudes of the target population derived from the analysis of "opinion" function in Blued, such as the stigmatization of the behavior of HIV testing influencing the attitude of HIV testing, could help researchers build a more accurate detection and promotion strategy instead of a very general intervention on the public.

Objective To investigate the effect of Tongxinluo on carotid artery stenosis,and the levels of high sensitive C reactive protein(hs-CRP) and D-Dimer in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods 168 patients with cerebral infarction treated in this hospital from June 2014 to June 2015 were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,with 84 cases in each group.The patients in both group received routine treatment.In addition to that,patients in the experimental group also used Tongxinluo capsule for 6 months as a course of treatment.After a course of treatment,Doppler ultrasound diagnosis instrument was used to detect carotid arterial intima-media thickness,plaque area and carotid artery stenosis rate.Hs-CRP and D-Dimer levels were also detected.Results After treatment,the carotid arterial intima-media thickness,plaque area and carotid vascular stenosis rate in two group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),but the three indicators in experimental group were decreased more significantly(P<0.05).After a course of treatment,the levels of D-Dimer and hs-CRP in peripheral blood of the two groups were significantly decreased(P<0.05),but the content of D-Dimer and hs-CRP was much lower in the experimental group(P<0.05).Conclusion Tongxinluo treatment could effectively reduce the level of hs-CRP and D-Dimer in patients with cerebral infarction,and alleviate the carotid artery stenosis,which might be worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To analyse the asymmetry of mandibular of adults with skeletal classⅢmalocclusion and mandibular deviation using cone-beam computerized tomography(CBCT).Methods:20 adults with skeletal classⅢmalocclusion and mandibular deviation (deviation group)and 20 adults with individual normal occlusion(normal group)were included.CBCT slices were taken for each sub-ject.INVIVO 5 software was used to make 3D reconstruction and location marks for line distance and volume measurements of mandi-ble and condyle.Results:The measurements of the mandibular ramus length,mandibular total length,hemi-mandibular volume, mandibular ramus volume,posterior part of mandibular body length,condylar unit length,angular unit length,body unit length and an-gular angle in deviation group were significantly different between 2 sides(P<0.05).Compared with the normal group,differences of the asymmetry of mandibular ramus length,mandibular total length,hemi-mandibular volume,mandibular ramus volume,posterior part of mandibular body length,angular angle,condylar unit length and body unit length between 2 sides in deviation group were sig-nificantly different(P<0.05).Conclusion:In adults with skeletal classⅢmalocclusion and mandibular deviation deviated condylar and mandibular ramus are smaller than those of the nondeviated;the posterior part of mandibular body is slightly asymmetric while the anterior part of mandibular body is almost symmetric.

To study and optimize the fermentation parameters for expressing human-like collagenⅡduring E. coli high-density fermentation. The effects of pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen and induction instant on the cell growth and human-like collagenⅡproduction were investigated to optimize the fermentation conditions. The results demonstrated that the following conditions were beneficial for cell growth and foreign gene expression, controlling pH in phase induction at 6.8 and initial pH at 6.5, maintaining fermentation temperature and dissolved oxygen concentration was controlled at 34?C and 20% respectively, and implementing induction at the later logarithmic growth phase. Under the optimized condition, the cell density and human-like collagenⅡyield could reach 88.4 g/L and 14.2 g/L, respectively.

OBJECTIVETo study the changes of the fatty components of Pollen Typhae before and after being carbonized.
METHODPollen Typhae and Pollen Typhae carbonisatus were extracted with petroleum ether (60-90 degrees C) respectively. The two kinds of extracts were analyzed by GC-MS after saponificated and methanolized, and their constituents were searched through NIST. The contents of the constituents were determined by method of normalization.
RESULTEither in Pollen Typhae or in Pollen Typhae carbonisatus, 32 components were identified, among which 20 components were the same and 6 were different respectively. Among the same components, the relative contents of 3-methyl-2-butenoic acid-2-phenylethyl ester, hexanedioic acid-dimethyl ester, dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, diphenylamine, sebacic acid dimethyl ester, 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, ethyl methyl ester, methyl-2-ethylhexyl phthalate and diisooctyl phthalate etc. increased obviously, and the relative contents of nonanedioic acid-dimethyl ester, diisobutyl phthalate and stigmastan-3,5-dien etc. decreased greatly. Among the different components, 8-hydroxy-octanoic acid-methyl ester, 9-hydroxy-nonanoic acid-methyl ester, 10-octadecenoic acid-methyl ester, m-hydroxycinnamic acid-methyl ester,3-[4-( acetyloxy)-3-methoxyphenyl]2-propenoic acid-methyl ester and 11-octadecenoic acid-methyl ester were detected in Pollen Typhae, 3-hydroxyspirost-8-en-11-one, benzenepropanoic acid-methyl ester, 2,4-dimethylhexanedioic acid; 2,4-bis (1,1-dimethylethyl)-phenol, undecanedioic acid-dimethyl ester and 9,10-dihydroxy-octadecanoic acid-methyl ester were detected in Pollen Typhae carbonistatus.
CONCLUSIONThe species and contents of the fatty components in Pollen Typhae changed before and after being carbonized, but their chemical types didn't change too much.
