Atomic layer deposition has been employed for postsynthesis treatment of octadecyl bonded silica (ODS) as a typical reversed-phase stationary phase for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) ,in an effort to alleviate peak tailing for basic compounds. With hexamethyldisilazane( HMDS) as an endcapping agent,the ODS packing materials were heated to 250℃,and maintained at that temperature for 6 h,affording packing materials which are highly inert to basic compounds. Chromatographic performance in terms of retention factor and tailing factor of the resulting phases was evaluated using phenol/pyridine and naphthalene/ami-triptyline pairs as probes. The results were compared with those for the same packing treated by liquid phase method and for the commercial products including Zorbax SB-C_(18) and Kromasil C_(18). The separation characteristics of the ODS phase obtained by atomic layer deposition appear to be superior to that by liquid phase method and,comparable with or even better than the commercial products studied. Being solvent-free process amenable to mass production,the described method provides an economical and eco-friendly approach to manufacturing HPLC packing materials on industrial scale.

Objective To analyse the frequeney and pattern of lymph node metastasis in bilateral papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), and establish the optimal surgical strategy for patients. Methods From March 2006 to August 2008, 58 bilateral PTMC patients received surgical treatment and the tumour characteristics, the frequency and pattern of lymph node metastasis and surgical management of these patients were retrospectively analysed. Results Forty-four patients received total thyroideetomy and 14 patients received near-totsl thyroideetomy, 47 patients received central compartment (level VI ) dissection and cervical level Ⅱ,Ⅲ, IV node exploration by internal jugular vein exposure,10 patients received level Ⅵdissection and unilateral cervical dissection and 1 patient received bilateral cervical dissection. The mean tumor diameter was (6.28 + 2.23) mm and 26 patients (44.8%) had node involvement, 88.5%(23/26) pa-tients had only level Ⅵ node involvement. Only 1 patient had node involvement in the jugular chain without level Ⅵ node involvement, 2 patients with level Ⅵ node involvement were associated with another cervical compartment nodes involvement. Conclusions Bilateral PTMC has high incidence of lymph node metasta-sis. The cervical level Ⅵ is the most common site of node involvement for bilateral PTMC and the surgical strategy for bilateral PTMC should include the cervical level Ⅵ dissection routinely.
