胡瓜钝绥螨对日光大棚茄子上烟粉虱的控制作用

为了评价胡瓜钝绥螨在我国日光大棚中对茄子上烟粉虱虱的控制作用。笔者研究了在24～34℃下胡瓜钝绥螨以烟粉为猎物时的发育历期,并在我国山东省寿光市的蔬菜基地上开展了利用胡瓜钝绥螨控制日光大棚茄子上烟粉虱的研究与应用。结果表明:胡瓜钝绥螨能够取食烟粉虱的卵、成虫、若虫及伪蛹;利用胡瓜钝绥螨能有效地控制烟粉虱成虫、卵、若虫种群数量的增长。根据胡瓜钝绥螨和烟粉虱的生物学特性,结合大棚茄子栽培过程中的环境条件,笔者提出了在日光大棚中应用胡瓜钝绥螨控制茄子上烟粉虱的策略:(1)在茄子的整个生长季节(250d)中需释放胡瓜钝绥螨4～6次,苗期每次每株释放5～10头,结果期每次每株释放20～40头;(2)释放胡瓜钝绥螨的生防区比常规化防区减少农药使用18次;(3)安装防虫网、适时释放胡瓜钝绥螨是生防成功之关键,生防区配合使用黄板效果更好。     

Diagnostic effectiveness of nutrient media for the bacteriological detection of enterobacteria

The effectiveness of new nutrient media intended for the differential isolation of pathogenic and opportunistic enterobacteria (SS agar), as well as for the preliminary identification of enterobacteria, was determined on a wide range the strains of the family Enterobacteriaceae. The comparative evaluation of SS agar and Ploskirev's bactoagar was carried out. The newly developed medium was shown to have advantage in its differentiating and inhibiting properties. The clinical trials of the media, carried out in this study, revealed high detection rate and exceedingly exact differentiation of lactose-negative lactose-positive enterobacteria, as well as 100% coincidence of the results obtained on the nutrient medium for the preliminary identification of enterobacteria and on laboratory-made control media.

Influence of substituent effects on spectroscopic properties and antimicrobial activity of 5-(4��-substituted phenylazo)-2-thioxothiazolidinone derivatives

5-(4??-substituted phenylazo)-2-thioxothiazolidinone derivatives (HL_n) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, spectra (IR, electronic and ¹H NMR). The IR spectral data indicate that the compounds can exist in two resonance structures. The synthesized ligands were screened for their antimicrobial activity against four bacterial species, two Gram positive bacteria (Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus) and two Gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae) as well as against some species various of fungi; Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Penicillium italicum and Fusarium oxysporium. The results showed that most these ligands are good antibacterial agents against B. cereus and S. aureus and antifungal agents against A. niger and F. oxysporium. HL₃ was found to be the most effect compound against all tested microorganisms. The size of clear zone were ordered as follows p-(OCH₃?<?CH₃?<?H?<?Cl?<?NO₂) as expected from Hammett??s constant ??^R.     

Histamine-Mediated Regulation of Electrical Activity during the Bladder–Urethra Interaction in Rats

The effect of histamine on background spontaneous electrical activity of the interrelated bladder and urethra was studied in rats. The basic characteristics of pacemaker activity (action potential amplitude, average peak rise rate, peak rise time, peak half-width, rhythmogenicity frequency) were analyzed both in normal conditions and upon exposure to histamine (10^–4 mol/L). A comparison of the action potential parameters in the above organs demonstrated far lower values of the amplitude (by 34.19%; p ≤ 0.001), peak rise rate (by 30.39%; p ≤ 0.01) and peak rise time (by 18%; p ≤ 0.01) at a reduced rhythmogenicity frequency. Histamine evoked a considerable increase in the amplitude and its rise rate in the bladder (by 50.59 and 56.36%, respectively; p ≤ 0.001) and rhythmogenicity frequency (by 18%; p ≤ 0.01) at a constancy of the remaining two parameters. In the urethra, no obvious changes were detected in the action potential parameters. Morphohistochemical analysis also supported the involvement of histamine in the activation of rhythmogenicity only in the bladder. Thus, histamine is not implicated in the genesis of tonic contractions in the urethra, in contrast to its activating effect on the bladder.

目的:探讨负压封闭引流技术(VSD)对兔颅骨外露缺损创面愈合的治疗效果。方法:选取成年新西兰大白兔76只,平均分为四组并建立兔颅骨外露实验模型。其中,A组(19只):于兔颅骨上方制作直径为2.0cm的圆形创面,保留骨膜,采用-120mmHg负压引流和常规换药治疗;B组(19只):实验动物处理同A组,仅采用常规换药治疗;C组(19只):在兔颅骨上制作直径2.0cm的圆形创面,剔除骨膜,治疗方法同A组;D组(19只):实验动物处理同C组,治疗方法同B组。每组各抽取10只,观察创面愈合率和创面愈合时间;其余9只分别在第7天、10天、20天、30天进行取材检测,分析疗效机制。结果:A组创面愈合时间为19.40±1.65天,B组为24.00±2.31天;C组为25.40±4.43天,D组为30.00±5.50天。运用VSD治疗和常规治疗创面愈合时间比较有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:VSD治疗兔骨外露缺损创面能有效缩短创面愈合时间,促进血管再生,胶原蛋白合成。     

Delta12-prostaglandin D2 is a potent and selective CRTH2 receptor agonist and causes activation of human eosinophils and Th2 lymphocytes

Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is a lipid mediator produced by mast cells, macrophages and Th2 lymphocytes and has been detected in high concentrations in the airways of asthmatic patients. There are two receptors for PGD2, namely the D prostanoid (DP) receptor and the chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2). The proinflammatory effects of PGD2 leading to recruitment of eosinophils and Th2 lymphocytes into inflamed tissues is thought to be predominantly due to action on CRTH2. Several PGD2 metabolites have been described as potent and selective agonists for CRTH2. In this study we have characterized the activity of delta12-PGD2, a product of PGD2 isomerization by albumin. Delta12-PGD2 induced calcium mobilization in CHO cells expressing human CRTH2 receptor, with efficacy and potency similar to those of PGD2. These effects were blocked by the TP/CRTH2 antagonist ramatroban. delta12-PGD2 bound to CRTH2 receptor with a pKi of 7.63, and a 55-fold selectivity for CRTH2 compared to DP. In Th2 lymphocytes, delta12-PGD2 induced calcium mobilization with high potency and an efficacy similar to that of PGD2. delta12-PGD2 also caused activation of eosinophils as measured by shape change. Taken together, these results show that delta12-PGD2 is a potent and selective agonist for CRTH2 receptor and can cause activation of eosinophils and Th2 lymphocytes. These data also confirm the selective effect of other PGD2 metabolites on CRTH2 and illustrate how the metabolism of PGD2 may influence the pattern of leukocyte infiltration at sites of allergic inflammation.
