Acyl Coenzyme A Oxidase(ACO) is the rate-limiting enzyme of the ?-oxidation of dicarboxylic acid in Candida tropicalis . Using strains with low Acyl Coenzyme A Oxidase activity to produce dicarboxylic acid on an industrial scale will facilitates the improvement of the yield and purity of dicarboxylic acid. In this research, we improved the method of Allain, so as to determine the activity of Acyl Coenzyme A Oxidase from Candida tropicalis easily and correctly. This method can be used as quantity criterion in the screen of industrial strains of dicarboxylic acid production, and this work established the basic of character study of Acyl Coenzyme A Oxidase. We determined the activities of Acyl Coenzyme A Oxidase from a series of Candida tropicalis strains with different ability of dicarboxylic acid production, and found the obvious relationship of ACO activity and ability of acid production.

Objective To investigate the clinical features, therapy and prognosis of elderly patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Methods The clinical features of 21 elderly patients and 89 patients aged ＜60 with newly diagnosed APL were retrospectively analyzed. Additionally,elderly patients were divided into different groups according to the count of white blood cell (WBC). Results There were no significant differences between elderly patients and patients aged ＜60 in the aspect of sex (male/female: 11/10 vs 47/42), WBC count (high initial WBC: 23.8 % vs 16.9 %), the percentage of bone marrow blasts plus promyelocytes (0.83±0.11 vs 0.83±0.12), complete remission (CR) rate (71.4 % vs 84.3 %),the time of CR occurrence (35.7±10.1 vs 39.1±13.5), the occurrence of retinoic acid syndrome(RAS) (14.3 % vs 22.5 %), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) (52.4 % vs 34.8 %) as well as 2 years overall survival rate (72.7 % vs 80.0 %) (P ＞0.05). Of the 21 elderly patients who received inductive treatment, 5 with high initial WBC and 16 without high initial WBC. The incidences of DIC, early death in high initial WBC group were 80 %, 60 % respectively, which were higher than the group without high initial WBC (43.8 %,18.8 % respectively), whereas CR rate for the group with high initial WBC (40.0 %) was lower than that for the group without high initial WBC (81.3 %). Conclusion Elderly patients with APL could have fine prognosis as well as patients aged ＜60. The results of inductive treatment of elderly patients in high initial WBC group were poor as compared with the group without high initial WBC.

0.05).Conclusion Platelets maintain a good and stable quality at-80 ℃ and the-80 ℃ refrigerator may cryopreserve the platelets for a long time.

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) are the common intracranial vascular malformations. The experimental models of AVF and AVM include animal models, in vitro models and biomathematical models. These models could be used to investigate the pathophysiological characters of AVF and AVM, to simulate the clinical treatment, and to examine the materials for embolization therapy. This article reviewed the formation of these models, evaluated their advantages and disadvantages, and briefly introduced their applications.

OBJECTIVE:To study the feasibility of purifying the effective blood-fat dropping parts from radix puerariae and fructus crataegi and to optimize the technical conditions and parameters.METHODS:Absorption capacities of four different macroporous resins on pueraria total isoflavones,crataegi total flavonoids and crataegi total triterpenic acid were compared.With adsorption quantity as index,optimization of the technics of purifying the effective blood-fat dropping parts from radix puerariae and fructus crataegi with macroporous resins were performed.RESULTS:AB-8resin showed a best adsorbability on the effective blood-fat dropping parts from radix puerariae and fructus crataegi,its optimum purification condition was the following,the concentration of the stock solution was0.13g crude drug/ml with a flow rate at0.5ml/min,and its pH value at about3.5(the same as the stock solution);80%ethanol solution was taken as the eluting solvent at an eluting flow rate of2ml/min.The purity coefficient of the purified effective portions was above85%.CONCLUSIONS:AB-8macroporous resin could be used for the purification of the effective blood-fat dropping parts from radix puerariae and fructus crataegi,the process is feasible and the reproduction of resin is easy.

Objective To establish an HPLC method for simultaneous contents determination of paeoniflorin, protocatechuic acid and chlorogenic acid in Penyanjing Capsule. Methods The chromatographic separation was performed on a SHIMADZU VP-ODS-C18 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm); the column temperature was maintained at 30 ℃; A gradient elution of acetonitrile-0.15% phosphoric acid aqueous solution was adopted at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min; The UV detection wavelengths were at 231, 255, and 326 nm; The injection volume was 20 μL. Results Paeoniflorin, protocatechuic acid and chlorogenic acid could be separated efficiently with this condition. The regression equation was Y=1546.4128X+127.0756 (r=0.9999), Y=2925.8468X+2204.1076 (r=0.9998), Y=893.9045X-261.7315 (r=0.9994), respectively. Paeoniflorin, protocatechuic acid and chlorogenic acid were linear in the range of 150.054–1254.50 ng, 162.33–1352.75 ng, 11.43–95.25 ng, and the average recoveries were 97.60%, 102.09% and 98.52%. Conclusion The method is simple, convenient and accurate, which can be used to the quality control of Penyanjing Capsule.

In order to change the situations such as students’passivity and low enthusiasm in the traditional experimental teaching of Microbiology and improve students’comprehensive qualities,exploration and attempt on experimental teaching reforms including teaching contents,teaching modes,laboratory management and evaluation system of examination were done.Teaching practices showed that the normalized ex- periment syllabus based on the correct orientation of experimental teaching of Microbiology,the actualization of teaching mode of basic skill training-integrated experiment-designed experiment and the management of opening laboratory were effective measures in improving experimental teaching of Microbiology.

There are two populations of bacteria to affect the formation of urinary stones in humanity. The first one can promote the formation of urinary stone by increasing urinary pH, decreasing concentration of urinary inhibitors , and damaging the protective urothelial glycosaminoglycan layer. The second inhibit the formation of urinary stones. These bacteria ( mainly the intestinal oxalate degrading bacteria such as Oxalobacter formigenes, lactic acid bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis etc) can decrease urinary oxalate concentration by regulating exogenous oxalate. The problems faced and the developing direction were also indicated.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of levofloxacin used on patients with HAP. Methods134 cases of patients with HAP as studied object were randomly divided into observation group and control group,observation group were given therapy of levofloxacin,and control group were given therapy of azithromycin. ResultsThe efficiency cases,effective cases,vain cases in observation group were 51,13 and 3,the efficiency rate and total effective rate were 75.0％ and 93.3％, the data in control group were 38,17,12,51.7 ％ and 81.7 ％. The efficiency rate ( x2 =4. 818, P ＜ 0.05 )and total effective rate( x2 =4. 804 ,P ＜ 0.05 ) of observation group was significantly better than that of control group. ConclusionLevofloxacin used on patients with HAP, could acquire good clinical effect,and the side-reactions were light.

Objective:To investigate the distribution and evolution of immunocytes in infantile hemangioma(IH).Methods:Fifty-two infantile hemangioma samples were investigate.The distribution of CD3+T cells,CD8+T cells and S-100+dendritic cell(DC) in IH was observed with.Results:CD3+T cell was not found among the earliest IH.In the middle proliferating stage,the number of CD3+T cells increased;But the CD8+T cells were still scare.In the late proliferating stage,there were many CD3+T cells and the number of CD8+T cells also increased.In the early involuting stage,there were still a number of CD3+ and CD8+ T cells around the microvessels.In the middle involuting and involuted stage,only a few of CD3+T cells and CD8+ T cells existed.In the early proliferating stage,there were some DC in IH.During the middle and late proliferating stage,the number of DC increased significantly.Since the early involuting stage,the DCs decreased rapidly and disappeared.Conclusion:The distribution of T cells and its subsets and DC have close relationship with the pathologic evolution of infantile hemangioma.
