SARS CoV内对照RNA病毒样颗粒的构建和表达

在SARS-CoV的核酸检测方法中,由于普遍缺乏安全、稳定、特异的内对照,而不能对样品处理、反转录、扩增以及定量检测实施全程监控。构建的病毒样核蛋白颗粒内对照,能够对SARS-CoV临床检测实施监控。本文通过克隆1.7Kb大肠杆菌噬菌体MS2的装配蛋白和壳蛋白基因以及SARS冠状病毒经过突变产生的270bp内对照片断,并将这些基因连接到载体pTrc99a上表达,进行纯化、定量分析、RT-PCR检测和稳定性试验。获得SARS内对照病毒样核蛋白颗粒,在人血清和SM缓冲液中37℃稳定性可达到30天,能抵抗核糖核酸酶降解。将内对照颗粒加入临床样本中一同检测,能够对检测的全过程(样品处理、反转录和PCR)有效进行监控,与SARS-CoV没有交叉反应。研究表明制备的该病毒样核蛋白颗粒稳定、安全、可靠,可作为SARS冠状病毒RT-PCR检测、定量分析的有效内对照参考品。     

Effect of method of solution on observed molecular weight distribution of barley starch and starch derivatives in size exclusion chromatography

Summary Samples of native barley starch and six starch derivatives were suspended (0.1% sample concentration) in four different solvents: the eluent (pH 11 buffer), dimethylsulfoxide, 0.1 M NaOH or 0.5 M NaOH and kept in a boilling water bath for 5 to 60 minutes or shaken for 60 minutes. The average molecular weight values , and the polydispersity value were determined with a TSK PW-type column using narrow standard calibration. Only a small part of the samples dissolved in the eluent. The dissolution of sample in dimethylsulfoxide was dependent on sample type. Of the NaOH solutions, 0.5 M NaOH was the only one that dissolved all the samples. Therefore, 0.5 M NaOH appears to be the solvent of choice for starch molecules.     

Classification of cultivation area of ginseng by near infrared spectroscopy and ICP-AES

A rapid and nondestructive near infrared (NIR) method using soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) for the classification of cultivation area (Korea and China) was evaluated and confirmed. Raw, first, and second derivative NIR spectra were compared to develop a robust classification rule. The chemical properties of ginseng samples were also investigated to find out the differences between Korean samples and Chinese samples. These differences make NIR spectroscopic method viable. The average value of each Korean and Chinese ginseng sample for crude fiber, crude protein, starch, and 10 inorganic constituents were measured and compared with F-test and t-test. The inorganic constituents were also measured by induced coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). It could be found that the amount of starch and ten inorganic elements for example Na, Mg, P, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu and Zn in ginseng samples are considerably different based on cultivation area. SIMCA has been applied to the inorganic data to investigate the possibility of ICP-AES as classification tool. However, it was observed that the result was not equal to than NIR spectra data. The overall results showed the availability of NIR method using SIMCA would be adequate for classification of cultivation of ginseng, since NIR spectra includes useful and various information on chemical properties in spite of broad and overlapped bands.     

GRAFT COPOLYMERIZATION OF VINYL MONOMERS ONTO STARCH INITIATED BY TRANSITION METAL-THIOUREA REDOX SYSTEMS

In this paper, the capabilities of grafting acrylonitrile (AN) onto starch initiatedby Fe(III)-TU, V(V)-TU, Cr(VI)-TU, Mn(VII)-TU redox systems were compared in thepresence of sulfuric acid of different concentrations. It was shown that the grafting capabili-ty of Mn(VII)-TU is the highest in these initiating systems. Using Mn (VII-TU as initia-tor, the effects of various acids (HClO_4, H_2SO_4, HNO_3, HCl) on the graft copolymerizationof acrylonitrile onto starch were discussed, and the capabilities of graft copolymerizationof methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylamide (AM), acrylic acid (AA) onto starch wereinvestigated. The experimental results show that the order of the influences of differentacids is HClO_4>H_2SO_4>HNO_3>HCl, and the order of grafting capabilities of differentmonomers grafted onto starch is MMA>AN>AM>AA. The structure and morphology ofgraft copolymers were studied with infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.The size, shape and roughness of surface of the grafted starch granules are changed aftergrafting.     

Silicone-modified starch/protein microparticles: protecting biopolymers with a hydrophobic coating

Silicone-coated starch/protein (human serum albumin, HSA) microparticles were prepared by precipitation of a starch/HSA/DMSO/water (water-in-oil) emulsion into acetone containing a silicone: the silicone polymer was either unfunctionalized (SiMe₃ terminated, PDMS) or functionalized at its termini with Si(OEt)₃ groups (TES-PDMS). The microparticles of approximate diameter 2–7 μm were highly hydrophobic with advancing contact angles 115°. Over several minutes, however, the contact angle decreased to ca. 40–70°. Soxhlet extraction with water led to degradation of the microparticles, irrespective of the nature of their silicone coating, as evidenced by release of the protein from them. Intraperitoneal (IP) or gastric administration of the two different particles to mice, however, showed a clear difference between the two silicones. The microparticles coated with either PDMS or TES-PDMS led to very different immune responses. Oral administration of the microparticles prepared with functionalized silicone elicited a significant production of antibodies, whereas the particles prepared with the unfunctionalized silicone (PDMS) were only weakly active. By contrast, the IP results demonstrated that particles coated with PDMS elicited an immune response that was established much more rapidly than with the particles modified with TES-PDMS. It is proposed that the TES-PDMS forms a physically adhering film or covalent bond to the protein molecules, which serves to protect the microparticle from biological degradation in the gut and/or facilitates the microparticle/protein interaction with the immune system.

Resistance properties of a macroporous silica-based N,N,N′,N′-tetraoctyl-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamide-impregnated polymeric adsorption material against nitric acid, temperature and γ-irradiation

The resistance of a novel silica-based N,N,N′,N′-tetraoctyl-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamide (TODGA) polymeric adsorption material (TODGA/SiO₂-P) against nitric acid, temperature and γ-irradiation had been investigated. The adsorption property of the treated TODGA/SiO₂-P was evaluated by a 3 M HNO₃ solution containing 0.01 M Nd(III). It was found that both 3 and 0.01 M HNO₃ concentrations did not decrease the stability of TODGA/SiO₂-P at 25°C. The quantity of TODGA leaked from TODGA/SiO₂-P was equivalent to its solubility in the corresponding HNO₃ aqueous solution. The effect of 3 M HNO₃ on the leakage of TODGA at 80°C was significantly higher than that in 0.01 M HNO₃ as well as in all cases at 25°C. The amount of Nd(III) adsorbed towards the treated TODGA/SiO₂-P was determined in the range of 0.143–0.148 mmol/g for the HNO₃ concentration effect and 0.142–0.0506 mmol/g for the temperature effect. γ-Irradiation showed a more noticeable destruction effect on TODGA/SiO₂-P. The content of TODGA leaked increased with an increase in the γ-irradiation dose (ID) from 1.06 to 3.72 MGy in terms of the linear equation [TODGA]=794.5ID+84.0. The amount of Nd(III) adsorbed onto the irradiated TODGA/SiO₂-P decreased rapidly from 0.134 to 0.0438 mmol/g, which was lower than 0.153 mmol/g, the adsorption of fresh TODGA/SiO₂-P for Nd(III), according to the equation Q_Nd(III)=−0.0301ID+0.160, showing that a large quantity of TODGA leaked from TODGA/SiO₂-P. The adsorbed amount of Nd(III) decreased obviously in this order: the HNO₃ concentration effect, temperature effect and γ-irradiation.
