Recombinant plasmids pHY-PA, pBBR-PA were constructed in which genes pdc and adhB were placed under the control of tac promoter, respectively, and had successfully expressed in Escherichia coli. Then these recombinant plasmids were electroporated into Lactobacillus strains for ethanol production. Preliminary ethanol fermentation using these Lactobacillus strains and their recombinants was carried out using 42℃ as fermentation temperature. The results indicated that introducing pdc and adhB, ethanologenic pathway was successfully constructed in L.plantanum CICIM B0080. 0.4% (V/V) ethanol was detected at the end of fermentation with 6.7% glucose, and that is 67-fold as the wild-type B0080. Two-fold of ethanol production was detected in L.amylovorus B0112 (pHY-PA) and L.acidophilus B0068 (pBBR-PA). Introducing both pdc and adhB, and meanwhile knock-outing the lactate dehydrogrnase gene may better convert carbon flux to ethanologenic direction.

Objective To evaluate the risk assessment model of Cryptosporidium laboratory,so as to provide the basis for laboratory personnel engaging in the operation of Cryptosporidium. Methods Firstly,the risk factors of Cryptosporidium infec?tion in laboratory were determined by the literature and Delphi,and then the weights of risk factors were determined by fuzzy an?alytic hierarchy process. A risk assessment model for laboratory biosafety of Cryptosporidium was established. Results Com?pared to the indexes,based on the risk assessment model,stool sample processing was the two steps in the laboratory with high risk of infection and high risk factors,with the combination weights of risk possibility and hazard rating were 0.111 and 0.107, respectively. Conclusion The risk assessment model established is feasible. It can be used to make some suggestions for the re?lated laboratory staff.

Objective To evaluate the radiation dose in both low radiation dose and to conventional radiation dose mode in multislice spiral CT scan for children with embedded teeth,and explore the lowest conditions of exposure in multislice spiral CT scan for children embedded teeth.Methods Eighty cases of children with embedded teeth examined by 16 slices spiral CT were divided into 5 ,25,125 and 250 mAs scanning groups.The scanned pictures of four groups were evaluated by two chief physicians and three associate chief physicians in the radiological department with double blind method.The CTDI_w and DLP in different radiation dose mode were recorded and analyzed with statistics.Results All the four groups scanned pictures in different radiation dose mode could accurately show the structure and the adjacency relation of embedded teeth.Even though the resolution of scanned pictures in S mAs group were inferior to the other three groups on bone trabecula,gingiva and their surrounding soft tissue,it still could meet the requirements of examination.The average DLP in 5 mAs group was only 2% of value in 250 mAs group.Conclusions MSCT in 5 mAs group can not only meet the requirements of examination,but also reduce the radiation dose to patients to the greatest extent.

Objective To explore the spiral the normal representations of permanent teeth and alveolar bone of multi-slice spiral(MSCT). Methods 30 adults with normal teeth were studied by multislice spiral CT scanner,window width and window level was 3000~5000 HU and 1200~1500 HU respectively.MSCT findings were analysed using multiplanar reformation,dental panorama and 3D reconstruction were done in all cases.Results The tooth were showed as multilaryer structures with different density at MSCT because of the mineral content of different part of tooth,from high to low density was enamel,circumpulpal dentin,outside dentin,cementum and pulp.The periodontal membrane was low density located beween the cementum and lamina dura and the thickness was homogeneous.The bone cortex of alveolar bone was successive,the bone trabecula appeared as wirelike or reticulate.Conclusion The structures of permanent teeth and alveolar bone can be displayed clearly by MSCT.Multiplanar reformation,dental panorama and 3D reconstruction are helpful to display the structures of teeth and alveolar bone as well as the relationship around structures.

Two thermotolerant, ethanol-producing yeast cultures: THFY-4 and THFY-16 were isolated from 381 nature samples. THFY-4 can grow on 30% glucose plate at 51 ℃,while THFY-16 can grow on the same medium at 45℃.After preliminary ide ntification, THFY-4 was identified as Kluyveromyces sp. and THFY-16 belon gs to Saccharomyces genus. The ethanol fermentation experiment shows that T HFY-4 can only produce 4.88% (v/v) ethanol from 20% glucose after 60 hours, wh ile THFY-16 can produce 11.44% ethanol under the same condition. When using s accharified Canna edulis Ker wort as fermentation medium, 9.43%(v/v) ethanol we re produced from 16.1% glucose, which is 91.0% of the theoretical yield.

It's difficult to diagnose precancerous lesion and early cancer for a long time, because both of them haven't typical morphological characteristics. As a novel diagnostic modality, fluorescence endoscopy can accurately reflect minimal changes in human's tissue, thus making a meaningful progress for cancer diagnosing. 200 patients were examined by fluorescence endoscopy to evaluate the diagnostic value. The overall accuracy, sensitivity and specificity for detecting malignant gastrointestinal tumor was 94.0%, 94.6% and 93.5%, respectively. Thus, fluorescence endoscopy can be used to diagnose malignant gastrointestinal tumors with high validity and reliability, and is advantageous over conventional white light endoscopy especially in detecting the atypical and suspicious lesions. Furthermore, fluorescence endoscopy can also guide target biopsy, is significant to improve the early cancer detection rate, has a broad development prospect.
