检测病毒气溶胶存活的方法学研究

以钝齿棒状杆菌噬菌体B271血清型为病毒等小颗粒生物粒子的模拟剂,建立了一种适合这类小颗粒生物粒子气溶胶存活研究的方法。本文从该噬菌体耐气溶胶化特性、气溶胶粒谱、用气溶胶示踪剂求算物理衰亡的方法和气溶胶采样回收技术等方面探讨了病毒气溶胶存活研究中的几个关键技术问题,为病毒气溶胶存活研究提供了参考。

The sensory functions of the cerebellum of the thornback ray,Platyrhinoidis triseriata

Summary Single unit spikes and evoked field potentials were recorded in different parts and depths of the corpus cerebelli and auricle of immobilized rays before and after stimulating with light, electric fields, touch, tail bending and direct shock to mechanoreceptive nerves of the lateral line.Discrete areas of the cerebellum are responsive to these modalities and the areas show limited overlap; they are all distinct from the area reported by Plassmann to be responsive to angular acceleration. The visual and tactile-proprioceptive areas are large; the electric area is small. Most units are excited only by one modality.The tail is represented only in the posterior lobe; trigeminal innervation extends from the posterior onto the anterior lobe, suggesting some topographic projection.The dynamic characteristics of the responses were examined particulary in the visual units. To a flash, units discharge up to six bursts of spikes in 500 ms. This pattern is reduced at repetition rates > 1/s; above ca. 4/s units tend to fire irregularly. Various kinds of units are found in respect to the succession of responses to short trains of flashes. Some units fire much better to objects moving in a limited visual field with a certain direction and rate.Abbreviation EP evoked potential     

Mechanism of action of the nitrosoureas: formation of 1,2-(diguanosin-7-yl) ethane from the reaction of BCNU (1,3-bis-[2-chloroethyl]-1-nitrosourea) with guanosine

A crosslinked dinucleoside, 1,2-(diguanosin-7-yl) ethane, has been isolated from the reaction of guanosine with the antitumor agent, BCNU. The formation of this product suggests that DNA crosslinking, which may be responsible for the cytotoxicity of BCNU, could occur through such dinucleosides.     

Diagnosis and Treatment of Amanita Phalloides-Type Mushroom Poisoning: Use of Thioctic Acid

The number of cases of mushroom poisoning is increasing as a result of the increasing popularity of “wild” mushroom consumption. Amanitin and phalloidin cytotoxins found in some Amanita and Galerina species produce the most severe and frequent life-threatening symptoms of Amanita phalloidestype poisoning. Delay in onset of symptoms, individual susceptibility variation and lack of rapid and reliable identification have contributed to the significant morbidity and mortality of this type of poisoning.A rapid chromatographic assay for identifying the potent cytotoxins and apparently successful management using thioctic acid of two cases of A. phalloides-type mushroom poisoning are reported. All known cases of A. phalloides-type mushroom poisoning treated with thioctic acid in the United States are summarized.
