Studies of the autoxidation of phenols catalyzed by the cobalt(II) complex of disodium N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-ethylenediamine-5,5′ -disulfonate bound to colloidal anion exchange resin

To overcome mass transfer limitations which are usually encountered on immobilizing active catalysts, cationic latex particles were used as support for the cobalt(II) complex of disodium N,N′-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine-5,5′-disulfonate ( 1 ). The cationic latex 2 was prepared by emulsion copolymerization of chloromethylstyrene (m/p-isomer mixture 60/40) and divinylbenzene (m/p-isomer mixture) followed by treatment with trimethylamine. The latexbound catalyst from 1 and 2 was found to considerably increase the reaction rate of the autoxidation of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol in water as compared with the conventional polymer-free system. Reaction products were identified as the oxidative coupling product 3,3′,5,5′-tetra-tert-butyldiphenoquinone (3,3′,5,5′-tetra-tert-butyl-4,4′-dioxo-1,1′-bicyclohexa-2,5-dienylidene) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone. All reactions showed an induction period before the start of dioxygen consumption. The rate of autoxidation in the three-phase mixtures of water, latex particles, and phenol droplets was not affected significantly by the method of mixing. The reaction rate increased as the concentration of 1 increased. Increasing the partial pressure of dioxygen in the range between 0,25 and 1,0 atm (2,53. 10⁴ – 1,01. 10⁵ Pa) gave a small increase in rate. The colloidal latex catalyst from 1 and 2 showed some loss of activity after successive runs.     

藏汉民族线粒体基因组全序列的比较研究

目的 以藏汉民族线粒体基因组全序列为基础,进行Haplogroup构建和系统发生分析,在全序列水平上比较核苷酸的变异,阐释可能的变异机制和蕴含的生物学意义.方法 采用Applied Biosystems 3730DNA自动测序仪分别对40名藏族和50名汉族的标本进行线粒体DNA序列测定,应用phredPhrap 16.0软件进行全序列拼接,并以rCRS(revised Cambridge Reference Sequence)为标准与测定序列进行比对分析;根据MTTO-MAP的标准,通过Network方法进行Haplogroup构建和系统发生的分析,并结合其它方法对产生的数据进行深入解读.结果 数据分析结果显示:在系统发生上,藏汉民族90个线粒体DNA序列归类到13个Haplogroups,除M9以外,其它各Haplogroup出现频率之间比较差异无统计学意义;通过两个民族的线粒体DNA全序列比对,发现21个分布频率有统计学意义的变异位点,其中的5个为新变异位点;另外,对D-Loop区的5个突变位点进行了单倍型构建,90个标本可分为2种Supertype,发现在藏汉民族之间Supertypel和Supertype 2的分布频率均有统计学意义.结论 藏汉民族在种族起源和系统发生上具有较近的母系遗传关系;在全序列有统计学意义的位点究竟是适应性或者中性选择,抑或是一种病理性突变尚需深入的探讨.

松质骨中两种纵波的传播特性分析

基于松质骨的层状模型，利用Schoenberg理论分析了松质骨中两种纵波(快纵波和慢纵波)的传播特性；并在理论和实验上详细分析了骨小梁方向与传播方向间的夹角对松质骨中快纵波和慢纵波传播特性的影响。分析结果表明，当超声波平行于骨小梁入射时，松质骨中两种纵波都传播，入射角度在60度附近时，松质骨中两种纵波的相速度曲线有一个转折点，入射角度在60度以上，角度越大时，骨髓和骨小梁耦合得越紧，因此阻止了慢纵波的传播，而只有快纵波传播。     

Detection of reticuloendotheliosis virus infection using the polymerase chain reaction

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was shown to be a sensitive and useful method for detection of infection by members of the group of avian reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV). Genomic DNA extracted from chick embryo fibroblasts (CEFs), blood and tumours of chickens experimentally infected with the spleen necrosis virus (SNV) strain of REV was used as the target for chain elongation. Deoxyoligonucle-otide primers that encompass a portion of the unique 3', repeat and unique 5' region of the long terminal repeat (LTR) served to prime chain elongation. Products characteristic of the SNV LTR were also produced from DNA extracted from CEF infected with other strains of REV, namely chick syncytial virus, duck infectious anaemia virus, and the T-strain of REV. SNV-LTR sequences were amplified from DNA of SNV-experimentally infected chicks between 5 days and 19 weeks after infection. SNV-LTR sequences were also amplified from DNA from tumours and brains of SNV infected chickens, but not from DNA from avian leukosis virus- or Marek's disease virus-induced tumours. Results indicate that PCR is a sensitive and specific method for detection of REV infection and tumours.     

小牛血去蛋白提取物对胃溃疡患者的疗效评价

目的：探讨小牛血去蛋白提取物(DCBE)对胃溃疡的治疗作用。方法：选择年龄20～70岁之间，经胃镜检查确诊为活动期胃溃疡的住院患60例。治疗组32例采用静脉滴注DCBE(800mg，qd)和法莫替丁(100mg,bid)治疗；对照组28例采用静脉滴注法莫替丁(100mg，bid)单独治疗。用药2、4wk行胃镜检查，观察自觉缓解症状、时间、愈合率和总有效率。结果：治疗组自觉症状缓解时间明显缩短；给药后2、4wk治疗组及对照组胃镜检查溃疡愈合率分别为78.1％，46.4％及84.4％，71.4％。结论：DCBE能显促进胃溃疡的愈合。
