Objective To investigate the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to antibacterial agents which were induced by disinfectants.Methods The susceptibility test of 68 strains from clinic was determined by VITEK-2 system.The MIC of povidone iodine,glutaraldehyde and chlorhexidine was determined by agar dilution method.68 strains were induced by different concentrations of three kinds of disinfectants for eight times.The concentration of three kinds of disinfectants was lower than their MIC.The MIC before and after inducement was determined by micro dilution.In the mean-while,strains of their MIC raised to antibiotics were inoculated on plate agar containing the PAβN which was the efflux pump inhibitor,in order to determine the phenotype of efflux pump.Results Six strains,MIC in 68 strains significantly changed after induction of disinfectants.The MIC of these six strains was higher than pre-induced to some antibacterial agents such as FQNs,cephems and carbapenem.The induction of povidone iodine and gilutaraldehyde were more obvious,and five strains,phenotype of efflux pump were positive after being induced by these two disinfectants.Conclusions The antimicrobial susceptibility of some Pseu-domonas aeruginosa will change after being induced by some disinfectants and the efflux pump will play an important role in this process.So the reasonable application of disinfectants were indispensable,in order to decrease the resistance and the opportunity of nosocomial infection.

Objective To compare real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR with general PCR in detecting bovine and porcine derived materials in hydrolysate samples.Methods DNA were extracted from hydrolysate samples which prepared by different steps by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and general PCR.Results DNA of bovine and porcine could be detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and general PCR in samples prepared in the processes before enzymolysis solution, but not detected in samples from supermatant to the fourth ultrafiltrate.Conclusion Both real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and general PCR can be applied to detect the fragments in hydrolysate samples.And real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR has the advantage such as rapid,convenient, non-environment-polluted, good repeatability, which improves the quality and efficiency.

To study the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) between the stuctures of 29 flavonoids and the inhibitory activity of their multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 1 and 2 by using the comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA). By studying the impact of the combination of different molecular force fields, researchers obtained the molecular force fields that played an important role in inhibiting the activity of MRP1 and MRP2, built the optimized QSAR model, and discussed the structural modification method for flavonoids' multidrug resistance-associated protein inhibitor. The results of the study could not only provide the guidance for new drug R&D, but also help partially discuss the synergy mechanism between MRP1 and MRP2 receptors and traditional Chinese medicines containing flavonoids.

Objective To explore the value of high frequency ultrasonography for the early diagnosis of hyperuricemia in patients with joint disease.Methods Ninety-eight patients with hyperuricemia and 100 healthy persons,according to with or without history of acute gout attack,were divided into symptomatic group,asymptomatic group and control group,whose first metatarsophalangeal joint,ankle and knee were examined by high frequency ultrasonography.Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results ① The joint lesions detection rate in the symptomatic group,asymptomatic group and the control group was 57％ (13/23),16％ (12/75),0 (0/100) respectively.There was statistical significant difference between the symptomatic group and the asymptomatic group (x2=9.69,P＜0.05).② The symptomatic group had 29 joint involvement (29/138),including 25 at the first metatarsophalangeal joint,3 at the ankle and one at the knee joint.The asymptomatic group had 14 joints involved (14/450),which were all located at the first metatarsophalangeal joint.③ The sonographic appearance of the two groups of arthropathy were synovial thickening,effusion,crystal deposition andbone erosion.The symptoms group presented as tophi,and increased synovial blood flow.Conclusion Patients with asymptomatic hyperuricemia may have joint diseases.The joint disease detection rate of the symptomatic group is higher than that of the asymptomatic group.High frequency ultrasonography can be used a conventional imaging method for the screening of patients with hyperuricemia joint disease.The focus of the screening of asymptomatic patients is the first metatarsophalangeal joint.The focus of the screening of symptomatic patients is the first metatarsophalangeal joint and the joints that were attacked in the past history.

The study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of S-1 capsule (tegafur, gimeracil and potassium oxonate capsule) in patients with advanced gastric cancer after single and multiple oral administration. Twelve patients with advanced gastric cancer were recruited to the study. The dose of S-1 for each patient was determined according to his/her body surface area (BSA). The dose for single administration was 60 mg every subject. The dose for multiple administration for one subject was as follows: 100 mg x d(-1) or 120 mg x d(-1), 28-days consecutive oral administration. The pharmacokinetic parameters of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil after single oral administration were as follows: (2,207 +/- 545), (220.0 +/- 68.2), (374.9 +/- 103.0), (110.5 +/- 100.8) and (831.1 +/- 199.9) ng x mL(-1) for Cmax; (11.8 +/- 3.8), (4.4 +/- 3.3), (7.8 +/- 5.1), (3.1 +/- 0.9) and (8.8 +/- 4.1) h for t1/2, respectively. After six days oral administration, the average steady state plasma concentrations (Cav) of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil were (2,425 +/- 1,172), (73.88 +/- 18.88), (162.6 +/- 70.8), (36.89 +/- 29.35) and (435.3 +/- 141.0) ng x mL(-1), respectively, and the degree of fluctuation (DF) were (1.0 +/- 0.2), (2.5 +/- 0.4), (3.1 +/- 0.8), (2.4 +/- 0.8) and (1.5 +/- 0.3), respectively. The cumulative urine excretion percentage of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil and potassium oxonate in urine within 48 h were (4.2 +/- 2.8) %, (4.7 +/- 1.6) %, (18.5 +/- 6.0) % and (1.7 +/- 1.2) %, repectively, after single oral administration of S-1. The results exhibited that tegafur had some drug accumulation observed, and gimeracil, potassium oxonate, 5-fluorouracil and uracil had no drug accumulation observed.

AimTo evaluate the efficiency of gene amplification technique used in detecting the specimens colleted from rodents to identify natural epidemic foci of scrub typlus. MethodMice of Kunining strain were experimentally infected by a certain amount of Oriential tsutsugamushi. The specimens of blood clot and spleen from the infected animals were detected by nested polymerase chain reaction(nPCR)specific to O. T sutsugamush at the day 3,6 and 9 of post-infection. Then the technique was used for detection of samples collected from field. As an infected index ,the specimen was considered to be positive only if a 88-bp DNA fragment from Sta 58kDa gene of O. Tsutsugamushi could be produced. According to the study ,it was estimated whether or not that the sampling area is a natural epidemic focus of the disease. ResultsThe specimens of both blood clot and spleen from the mica at day 3 of post-infecction showed negative to the specific PCR product ,but positive when detected at day 6 and hereafter. Of 111 spleen samples from the field collections in the northwest of Fujian province,one was positive, and another positive sample was in the 29 blood clots from Jiangxi province. It is demonstrated that these areas have been the natural epidemic foci. Conclusion The nPCR method is of highly sensitive and specific to be used in the etiologic study on specimens from field rats.
