A technique is described for colonizing hematophagous mesostigmatid (= gamasid) mites under laboratory conditions. The apparatus consisted of a 473-ml (1 pint) Mason jar with sterilized surgical gauze and corrugated card placed inside on the bottom; these functioned as absorbent and mite bedding materials, respectively. A suckling mouse was placed onto the surgical gauze for 2-24 h to provide a food source for the mites. Stickem adhesive was smeared along the inside neck of the jar, which had a tight-fitting but ventilated screw-cap lid. The apparatus rested in a petri dish filled with water. This system provided excellent containment of the mites.  相似文献

F-RNA coliphages, part of the gut flora and likely to be deposited on meat along with other enteric organisms during carcass dressing and processing, may be regarded as an indicator and/or surrogate for potential zoonotic enteric viruses. There is no recommended sampling method for viruses on meats and there is a lack of information on the attachment of enteric viruses or F-RNA coliphages to gauze swabs, cellulose sponges and muscle and fat tissue. The objective of this work was to optimize the recovery of MS2 from muscle and fat tissue of meat by comparing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 10% beef extract pH 7.2, and tryptose phosphate (2.9%) glycine (6%) broth pH 9.5 as eluants. The sampling techniques of excision, swabbing with gauze or cellulose sponges were compared with homogenizing the inoculated entire muscle or fat surface area. The recovery of MS2 from cellulose sponges using beef extract was significantly higher (P=0.001) than tryptose phosphate glycine broth which was significantly higher (P=0.0001) than PBS. There was no significant difference in the recovery between tryptose phosphate glycine broth and beef extract (P=0.92) and there was no significant difference between PBS and beef extract (P=0.10) when MS2 was recovered from gauze. No significant differences were observed between the different eluants with muscle tissue (P=0.91). When MS2 was recovered from muscle tissue with beef extract significant differences were observed (P=0.002); the sampling techniques of homogenizing the entire sample (56%) was equal to excision (43%) (P=0.23) and swabbing with a cellulose sponge (38%) (P=0.06) which were significantly higher than swabbing with gauze (28%), a second grouping of means indicated that homogenizing the entire sample was significantly higher than the other three sampling techniques. When MS2 was recovered from fat, significant differences were observed (P=0.000); homogenizing the entire sample (78%) was equal to excision (74%), which were significantly higher than swabbing with gauze (49%) or cellulose sponge (29%). The recovery of MS2 from meat is affected by the sampling technique. When choosing a nondestructive sampling method such as a cellulose sponge, a higher recovery can be obtained with beef extract as an eluant.  相似文献

Hyaluronic acid (HA) was electrospun. The effects of flow rate, spin length, and the applied voltage on the diameter of the HA nanofibers were analyzed. The average thickness of the webs was 0.041 cm. The air permeability of sterilized HA nanofiber wound dressing was much higher than that of gauze with Vaseline. The degree of crystallinity of HA nanofibers was characterized using powder X-ray technique and was found to be 20.6%. A preclinical study was conducted to compare healing of wounds covered by an adhesive bandage, a sterilized solid HA, gauze with Vaseline, an antibiotic dressing, and a sterilized HA nanofiber wound dressing. Results of the two methods of appraisal showed that the sterilized HA nanofiber wound dressing was the best type of dressing out of the five types of dressings compared.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Modified cellulose dressing as an important part of polysaccharide hemostatic material has its unique advantages compared with gelatin sponge and fibrin glue. OBJECTIVE: To compare the hemostatic effect and histocompatibility of medical gauze, absorbable hemostatic gauze and soluble hemostatic gauze.  METHODS: After establishment of liver trauma models, 36 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups (n=12) depending on different hemostatic materials. Injury wounds were covered with soluble hemostatic gauze (mainly made of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, experimental group), absorbable hemostatic gauze (mainly made of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, control group) and medical gauze (normal group), respectively. The gauze was only taken out in the normal group. A hemostasis trial on liver injury was carried out to investigate the bleeding time and bleeding amount. After 1, 3, 7 and 10 days, wound healing was observed histologically in each group.  RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The bleeding time and bleeding amount in the experimental and control groups were lower than those in the normal group (both P < 0.05), but no statistical difference was found between the experimental and control groups. After 1 day of implantation, the soluble hemostatic gauze was absorbed completely, and the absorbable hemostatic gauze was absorbed with no residual until the 10th day. Experimental and control groups shared similar pathological changes. In these two groups, mild fibrosis and fibrous scar appeared, a better improvement in wound inflammation was shown at 10 days compared with that at 7 days, and the wound gradually healed. In the normal group, there were no obvious lesions except mild tissue edema around the wound. All these findings suggest that the soluble hemostatic gauze has better hemostatic effect and histocompatibility.  相似文献

Water filtration in the human forearm was determined with a new method using a hyperoncotic transient of albumin solution infused into the brachial artery. Baseline dilution of labelled albumin in deep forearm vein plasma in excess of the contribution from arterial blood and from infusate was assumed to originate from extravascular water filtered into the blood by the transient. The filtration coefficient (Fc) was determined as the ratio between filtered water and increase in colloid osmotic pressure in the blood samples, and gives the filtrative water permeability in the exchange areas of the microcirculation. In 10 normal volunteers, Fc was 0.00082 ml (ml mmHg)-1 (SD=0.00007). Multiplication of Fc by plasma flow in the forearm gave a filtration capacity (Kf) of 0.0036 ml (100 ml tissue min mmHg)-1 (SD=0.00137). This filtration capacity (Kf) represents that of fast flowing regions in the forearm muscles, but it is of the same order of magnitude as the capillary filtration coefficient (CFC) determined plethysmographically for the entire forearm by the venous stasis technique.  相似文献

The efficacy of recovery of peritonitis-causing microorganisms from peritoneal dialysate fluid by using the Septi-Chek blood culture system (Roche Diagnostics, Div. Hoffmann-La Roche Inc., Nutley, N.J.) was compared with those of other conventional techniques, such as the 20-ml culture and the filtration methods. The recovery of microorganisms by using the Septi-Chek system was found to be as effective as the filtration of 250 ml of dialysate that used a modified Millipore filtration technique (Millipore Corp., Bedford, Mass.). Both methods were found to be superior to the 20-ml culture method. We suggest using the Septi-Chek method as the standard protocol for the culture of dialysate as a relatively inexpensive and labor-saving recovery technique.  相似文献

Refractory ascites is an infrequent complication of cirrhosis. Paracentesis and ultrafiltration of the ascitic fluid with intravenous or intraperitoneal reinfusion of the concentrated ascites has been used as therapy for this condition since 1971. The technique is cumbersome and has high morbidity and mortality rates, even if effective. In this paper we describe a new technique that couples secondary filtration for the removal of macromolecules, with ultrafiltration of ascitic fluid. In its very first application 6 patients underwent 8 treatments. No adverse effect was observed and clinical efficacy was good. Up to 60 g of albumin can be saved in a single session lasting less than 2 hours.  相似文献

Potential sources of error in the Gibson and Cooke method of sweat testing using gauze and filter paper as collection media as described. The absolute chloride content of gauze was higher than that of filter paper; however, the variability of chloride contents between the two was insignificant. Complete chloride elution from filter paper requires more time than elution from gauze. A method of determining probability of a clinically acceptable measurement based on sweat sample size, chloride determination, and variability of chloride in collection media is also described.  相似文献

The feasibility of a real-time dual-energy imaging technique with dynamic filtration using a flat panel detector for quantifying coronary arterial calcium was evaluated. In this technique, the x-ray beam was switched at 15 Hz between 60 kVp and 120 kVp with the 120 kVp beam having an additional 0.8 mm silver filter. The performance of the dynamic filtration technique was compared with a static filtration technique (4 mm Al+0.2 mm Cu for both beams). The ability to quantify calcium mass was evaluated using calcified arterial vessel phantoms with 20-230 mg of hydroxylapatite. The vessel phantoms were imaged over a Lucite phantom and then an anthropomorphic chest phantom. The total thickness of Lucite phantom ranges from 13.5-26.5 cm to simulate patient thickness of 16-32 cm. The calcium mass was measured using a densitometric technique. The effective dose to patient was estimated from the measured entrance exposure. The effects of patient thickness on contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), effective dose, and the precision of calcium mass quantification (i.e., the frame to frame variability) were studied. The effects of misregistration artifacts were also measured by shifting the vessel phantoms manually between low- and high-energy images. The results show that, with the same detector signal level, the dynamic filtration technique produced 70% higher calcium contrast-to-noise ratio with only 4% increase in patient dose as compared to the static filtration technique. At the same time, x-ray tube loading increased by 30% with dynamic filtration. The minimum detectability of calcium with anatomical background was measured to be 34 mg of hydroxyapatite. The precision in calcium mass measurement, determined from 16 repeated dual-energy images, ranges from 13 mg to 41 mg when the patient thickness increased from 16 to 32 cm. The CNR was found to decrease with the patient thickness linearly at a rate of (-7%/cm). The anatomic background produced measurement root-mean-square (RMS) errors of 13 mg and 18 mg when the vessel phantoms were imaged over a uniform (over the rib) and nonuniform (across the edge of rib) bone background, respectively. Misregistration artifacts due to motions of up to 1.0 mm between the low- and high-energy images introduce RMS error of less than 4.3 mg, which is much smaller than the frame to frame variability and the measurement error due to anatomic background. The effective dose ranged from 1.1 to 6.6 microSv for each dual-energy image, depending on patient thickness. The study shows that real-time dual-energy imaging can potentially be used as a low dose technique for quantifying coronary arterial calcium.  相似文献

A new technique is described for the rapid detection and quantitation of herpes simplex virus (HSV) antigens and antiviral antibodies. It involves immobilization of HSV antigens on filter paper discs and subsequent analysis by 125I-labeled staphylococcal protein A (SPA) radioimmunoassay. A specially designed 96-well filtration device is employed which serves both as an incubation chamber and as a filtration manifold. It is rapid, simple, sensitive and specific, and requires only small volumes of antiserum and few target cells. The results may be readily and objectively quantitated. This technique permits the simultaneous assay of a large number of specimens in less than 1 h. Its sensitivity is considerably greater than that of other currently used immunologic techniques, and it is amenable to automation. These characteristics suggest that this [125I]SPA immunofiltration technique may be applicable to the rapid diagnosis of viral infections.  相似文献

The technique of remote afterloading for intracavitary radiotherapy was developed by Henschke et al 15 years ago, and since then the technique has received wide acceptance, both abroad and in the United States. Here at Howard University, it plays an integral part in the intracavitary portion of the treatment of cervix carcinoma. Most applications are done on an outpatient basis without anesthesia or sedation. This has become possible by dilating the cervical canal painlessly with thin laminaria rods. Spread of the lateral colpostats is accomplished by inflating a Foley balloon secured to the applicator with contrast medias, instead of using the customary gauze packing for increased rectal distance.  相似文献

Fresh fecal material that was free of ova and parasites was pooled with 10% Formalin in a 1:4 ratio to prepare a standard specimen. Portions of 100 ml of this specimen were individually seeded with Cryptosporidium oocysts, Entamoeba coli, Entamoeba histolytica, and Giardia lamblia cysts; ova of Necator americanus; and Strongyloides larvae. Appropriate volumes of each parasite suspension were used to evaluate the Fecal Concentrator Kit (Remel, Lenexa, Kans.), Fecal Parasite Concentrator (Evergreen Scientific, Los Angeles, Calif.), Para-Pak Macro-Con (Meridian Diagnostics, Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio), and Trend FeKal CON-Trate (Trend Scientific, Inc., St. Paul, Minn.). A standardized gauze filtration method was used as the reference procedure. Tests were performed in triplicate with each individual parasite-concentrator combination, with three slides examined from each sediment. All of the systems effectively concentrated parasites compared with direct examination of unconcentrated fecal material. The Fecal Concentrator Kit provided the best overall performance. Clarity of sediment, lack of debris, and uniformity of background material were found to be important considerations for microscopic detection of parasites in concentrated specimens.  相似文献

Patients with bacterial infection may show altered membrane permeability of the primary azurophilic lysosomes of blood neutrophils. A new enzyme cytochemical technique, sensitive to increased membrane permeability caused by contact of neutrophils with acetone, saponin, low pH, Streptolysin O, bacteria, and nylon wool, has been developed. The method is of potential value as a screening test for bacterial infection and for detecting neutrophil damage during filtration leucopheresis.  相似文献

背景:脊椎后路植骨融合是常见的脊椎术式,人工骨可以很好地辅助植骨融合,但是由于软组织可能对人工骨存在一定的反应,人工骨目前很少应用于脊椎后路植骨中。 目的:拟通过兔的脊椎后路植骨实验,探讨如何降低脊椎手术中软组织对人工骨反应。 方法:36只成年公兔随机分为可吸收止血纱布组和对照组,于L2-3去皮质的椎板表面上,植入β-磷酸三钙人工骨,以可吸收止血纱布隔离背侧软组织为可吸收止血纱布组,无隔离物为对照组。检测植骨后不同时间点,兔血液中的C-反应蛋白表达,记录植骨后1周和12周皮肤愈合和皮下组织愈合情况以及局部炎症反应,CT检查记录植骨后不同时间点的人工骨爬行替代情况。 结果与结论:1周时,可吸收止血纱布组所有兔的背侧筋膜愈合完整;对照组9只中7只筋膜愈合完整,2只背侧筋膜愈合欠佳。12周时,可吸收止血纱布组9只中8只背侧筋膜愈合良好,1只愈合欠佳;对照组9只中6只愈合良好,2只愈合欠佳,1只轻度感染。1周时两组肌肉组织都存在一定充血,部分炎性细胞浸润,可吸收止血纱布组炎性细胞浸润较少,局部充血相对较少。12周时两组肌肉组织都存在一定的肉芽组织增生,可吸收止血纱布组炎性细胞浸润略少,对照组部分动物可见较明显的坏死组织。植骨后即刻,植骨后1周,4周时血液中的C-反应蛋白表达在两组间差异无显著性意义。植骨后12周时,CT检查显示靠近骨面的人工骨吸收明显,靠近软组织的人工骨无明显吸收,人工骨吸收情况在两组间无明显区别。结果提示,人工骨放置应尽量与植骨面多接触,这可促进人工骨尽早吸收,并降低软组织反应。减少人工骨和软组织接触,可以降低软组织对人工骨的反应。可吸收止血纱布的早期生物隔离和组织修复作用能一定程度减少组织对人工骨的反应。  相似文献

The long-term outcome in rat kidneys subjected to 45 min of warm ischaemia with no treatment and after administration of 20 mg superoxide dismutase (SOD) and of SOD combined with 2 ml of a 12% sucrose solution was studied by the micropuncture technique. It was found that, although in the acute phase SOD prevented trapping of erythrocytes in the medullary vasculature and that SOD + sucrose also prevented the formation of tubular obstruction, the long-term results as studied 1 week and 1 month after the primary ischaemic insult were virtually identical. This was due to the formation of new obstructions, during the first week, mainly in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop. After 1 month the proximal tubular free-flow pressure and the single-nephron filtration rate had returned to normal. However, since the total glomerular filtration was only one-third of that under normal conditions, it would seem that two-thirds of the nephrons had undergone complete degeneration. This degeneration was probably the result of persistent tubular obstruction. The tubular degeneration was also accompanied by a reduction in urine osmolality and potassium secretion.  相似文献

Dual-energy contrast-enhanced breast tomosynthesis is a promising technique to obtain three-dimensional functional information from the breast with high resolution and speed. To optimize this new method, this study searched for the beam quality that maximized image quality in terms of mass detection performance. A digital tomosynthesis system was modeled using a fast ray-tracing algorithm, which created simulated projection images by tracking photons through a voxelized anatomical breast phantom containing iodinated lesions. The single-energy images were combined into dual-energy images through a weighted log subtraction process. The weighting factor was optimized to minimize anatomical noise, while the dose distribution was chosen to minimize quantum noise. The dual-energy images were analyzed for the signal difference to noise ratio (SdNR) of iodinated masses. The fast ray-tracing explored 523?776 dual-energy combinations to identify which yields optimum mass SdNR. The ray-tracing results were verified using a Monte Carlo model for a breast tomosynthesis system with a selenium-based flat-panel detector. The projection images from our voxelized breast phantom were obtained at a constant total glandular dose. The projections were combined using weighted log subtraction and reconstructed using commercial reconstruction software. The lesion SdNR was measured in the central reconstructed slice. The SdNR performance varied markedly across the kVp and filtration space. Ray-tracing results indicated that the mass SdNR was maximized with a high-energy tungsten beam at 49 kVp with 92.5 μm of copper filtration and a low-energy tungsten beam at 49 kVp with 95 μm of tin filtration. This result was consistent with Monte Carlo findings. This mammographic technique led to a mass SdNR of 0.92 ± 0.03 in the projections and 3.68 ± 0.19 in the reconstructed slices. These values were markedly higher than those for non-optimized techniques. Our findings indicate that dual-energy breast tomosynthesis can be performed optimally at 49 kVp with alternative copper and tin filters, with reconstruction following weighted subtraction. The optimum technique provides best visibility of iodine against structured breast background in dual-energy contrast-enhanced breast tomosynthesis.  相似文献
