Epipolarization Microscopic Immunogold Assay: a Combination of Immunogold Silver Staining, Enzyme-Linked-Immunosorbent Assay and Epipolarization Microscopy

We describe a new immunoassay which combines an immunosorbent assay, Immunogold silver staining and epipolarization microscopy. Our new assay procedure features multiple samples on a single microscope slide, and high sensitivity of epipolarization microscope for detection of silver-enhanced colloidal gold as a final immunoassay product. We call the new immunoassay “on slide immunogold assay” (OSIGA). This new method uses biotinylated antibody and streptavidin-gold reaction with silver enhancement technique. With OSIGA it is possible to investigate 30 samples on a single microscopic slide. Our preliminary studies used 10-20 μ1 samples and detected nanogram quantities of a standardized protein solution. Unlike enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which has a limited time for reading the final color products, the OSIGA specimens can be dried or resin mounted for longer storage and future reference.     

Purification and characterization of recombinant human pro-urokinase produced in silkworm using a baculovirus vector

Summary A recombinant baculovirus (BmNPV-pk2) was constructed by inserting the human pro-urokinase(pro-UK) cDNA into the genome of baculovirus Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) adjacent to the strong polyhedrin promoter. The recombinant virus replicated in silkworm larvae, which synthesized 30g pro-UK/ml in the haemolymph within 4 days post-infection. Purification to near homogeneity was accomplished by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulphate and immunoaffinity chromatography with an overall yield of 23% and a specific activity of 100,000IU/mg in fibrin plate assay. This purified product was comprised of a single chain protein with approximately Mr. 50kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE gel. The N-Terminal amino acids sequence revealed that the secretion signal of pro-UK was correctly processed.     

水平回转对水稻幼苗叶细胞的影响

对在模拟微重力装置上回转１４ 天的水稻幼苗叶细胞进行了亚显微形态、电子探针和细胞酶化学研究。发现叶细胞质膜上Ｃａ２＋ －ＡＴＰ酶活性消失,膜内钙总量上升、膜外钙总量下降,细胞骨架变得疏松,细胞壁变薄并凹凸不平。叶绿体的基粒和线粒体的内嵴亦有部分变化。其变化机制,首先是细胞质膜上Ｃａ２＋ －ＡＴＰ酶活性消失,膜上钙泵停止工作,跨膜钙浓度差减小,膜内钙浓度上升,微管、微丝聚合受阻,细胞骨架疏松,分泌泡移动失去导向,从而导致细胞壁变薄等状态

民勤红砂岗地区绵刺分布和繁殖方式及濒危原因调查

本文调查了民勤红砂岗地区绵刺的分布现状和面积,初步观测了它的生活习性和繁殖方式,发现枝条生根是它的重要繁殖方式,并对绵刺濒危的原因和保护措施进行了讨论。     

不同树种混交林及其纯林对土壤理化性质影响的研究

对针阔混交林土壤理化性质的研究表明,针阔混交林比针叶树纯林对土壤的改良作用要好,它使土壤总孔隙度增加２—１９％,水分含量增加６—３１％,枯枝落叶年凋落量增加２—２００％;土壤养分含量全Ｎ、ＮＨ４－Ｎ、代换性Ｃａ、代换性Ｍｇ和腐殖质含量分别增加４５—７５％、３３—８２％、５５—８５％、４４—８４％和３７—４６％．     

天然吸附剂—壳聚糖吸附性能的研究

本文通过研究天然吸附剂—壳聚糖对古龙酸、缬氨酸、水杨酸和谷氨酸等物质的吸附性能,主要研究了吸附容量随时间变化,吸附容量与pH值的关系以及它们的饱和吸附容量,从而为这种天然吸附剂的应用提供了基础。     

肌苷发酵液絮凝除菌体的研究

目前国内肌苷生产厂家普遍采用的提取方法是“双柱法”,即先用阳离子柱吸附,然后再用炭柱吸附。该方法不但周期长,工作量大,能耗高,而且提取收率低,一般只有60％左右,使我国肌苷的生产成本大大提高。因此,寻求新的提取方法,降低生产成本,是肌苷生产厂家及有关科技人员所共同关注的问题。肌苷发酵液的除菌体就是新法提取的步骤之一,它可以省去阳离子吸附柱,直接采用炭柱吸附,采用此法可使提取周期大大缩短,降低能耗,提高提取收率。 肌苷菌体较难清除,本研究采用能耗低、易操作,工作量小的絮凝方法,所用的絮凝剂为天然无毒物质,因此沉淀菌体可用作饲料蛋白,起到一举两得的作用。     

L．B－G．O对小鼠U_（14）宫颈癌细胞DNA合成和超微结构的影响

本实验合并应用枸杞有效成份和大蒜有效成份,作用于Ｕ_１４腹水型宫颈癌小鼠,腹腔注射第四天,发现一般状况改善,取腹水观察,癌细胞破损,ＤＮＡ、ＲＮＡ荧光染色强度减弱,有大量白细胞和巨噬细胞围绕;流式细胞分析Ｇ＿１期细胞堆积,超微结构显示胞质中线粒体肿胀,嵴破坏甚至中空,粗面内质网扩大、脱颗粒,肯定了其作用的效果。此因枸杞有效成分活化巨噬细胞与肿瘤细胞紧密结合而起到溶瘤作用,与大蒜有效成分直接杀伤而作用维持短暂结合起来,可大大提高抗癌作用。
