Efficient mutation detection in MEN1 gene using a combination of single-strand conformation polymorphism (MDGA) and heteroduplex analysis

For facilitated genotypic analysis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), a familial syndrome associated with tumors of the parathyroid and neuroendocrine tissues, we developed two screening methods, heteroduplex mutation assay (HMA) and mutation detection gel analysis (MDGA), both based on electrophoretic discrimination of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products, to detect the mutations. Forty-three genomic DNA samples were used for the evaluation of these techniques. The whole coding region of MEN1 was PCR-amplified with fluorescent primers and then denatured/renatured before electrophoresis on an automated sequencer. 100% of the mutations were detected, subsequently confirmed and identified by sequencing. "Negative" samples were used to evaluate the specificity and reproducibility of the two techniques. The combination of the two methods allows high throughput cost-effective mutation screening which is less laborious than systematic sequencing of the whole coding region of MEN1. Together, these methods provide an efficient screen for MEN1 mutations.

Mode solvers for very thin long–range plasmonic waveguides

We present two mode solvers applied to a very thin long–range plasmonic waveguide. We compare the guided mode complex effective index obtained either applying a Fourier modal method or calculating density of guided modes using the Green’s dyad technique. We achieve good agreement for both effective indices and mode profiles. We also observe a different behaviour compared to long–range surface plasmon supported by thicker films.     

Rigid curves at random positions and linking numbers

A property of the square of the linking number of two closed rigid curves randomly displaced in a three dimensional space, has been recently found by W. Pohl. Here, this result is reproduced and generalized. This new approach is quite different and uses a simple Fourier transformation.     

Surface plasmon interference excited by tightly focused laser beams

We show that interfering surface plasmon polaritons can be excited with a focused laser beam at normal incidence to a plane metal film. No protrusions or holes are needed in this excitation scheme. Depending on the axial position of the focus, the intensity distribution on the metal surface is either dominated by interferences between counterpropagating plasmons or by a two-lobe pattern characteristic of localized surface plasmon excitation. Our experiments can be accurately explained by use of the angular spectrum representation and provide a simple means for locally exciting standing surface plasmon polaritons.     

应用ICP—MS测定KCl肥料中重金属元素含量

肥料是重金属的重要污染源之一,重金属可以通过作物直接进入人类食物链对人体产生危害,研究肥料中重金属含量对于农产品安全溯源意义重大。文章选用北京市场上销售的进口KCl肥料作为实验材料,全面分析了其中的10种重金属元素含量,分别为,Cr0.00,Ni65.54,Cu238.85,As190.60,Cd0.98,Sn14.98,Sb2.97,Hg10.04,Tl1.28,Pb97.42ng·g-1。上述结果表明,KCl肥料中重金属含量普遍比较低,特别是Cr没有检测到,其余四中主要重金属(As,Cd,Hg,Pb)的含量除了As(190.60ng·g-1)以外,也都在100ng·g-1以下,不会对土壤环境造成重大污染,含量最高的重金属是Cu,为238.85ng·g-1。由此看来,KCl肥料与磷肥相比重金属含量较低,对农产品是相对安全的。
