A synergistic extractive effect was found when HDEHP and HEH/EHP were used as mixed extractants for Sm^3＋ or Nd^3＋. The chemical compositions of the extracted complex were determined as Nd.（HA2）2-HL2 and Sm.（HA2）2-HL2.

The effect of equilibrium of aqueous acidity on extraction of Pr^3＋ was discussed. The effect of extractant concentraction, different diluents, equilibrium time and acetate ion concentration oil extraction reaction were also studied. With a method of double-logarithmic slope, composition of the extracted species on 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester and 8-Hydroxyquinoline was derived. The result shows that the synergistic extraction system not only overcomes emulsification of 8-Hydroxyquinoline, but also shows perfect capacity of synergistic extraction. The largest synergistic enhancement factor can be calculated to be 5.49 at pH 3.6 for Pr^3＋.展开更多

The study involved 35 men from 19 to 21 years old with the left profile of the manual and aural asymmetries. EEG was recorded in the functional status of rest： during the aural perception and playback of mono- and polyphonic rhythmical patterns with the left and right hand fingers. The monophony in the rhythmical pattern sounding relative to monophonic patterns is followed by more expressed and widespread cortical processes of the EEG a-oscillation depression. Given patterns indicate a greater intensity of ascending nonspecific arousal strategies of data processing by men on conditions of the sound and harmonious complications of the pattern structure. The aural perception and playback of rhythmical patterns with both hands were accompanied by the increased significance of arousal processes in the right hemisphere. This may be due to the dominant role of the hemisphere during the formation of the innervation impacts on the left-hander＇s neuro-motor apparatus. More differentiated changes in the cerebral cortex were installed during the left hand activation.展开更多

METHODS:PBMCs were isolated,cultured,and stimulated with Bio-Three(a mixture of Bacillus mesentericus, Clostridium butyricum and Enterococcus faecalis;105, 10 6 and 10 7 CFU/mL for 24 h).Cytokine production of (1)circulating PBMCs;(2)PBMCs stimulated by probiotic preparation;(3)monocyte-derived DCs;and(4)DC andT cell co-culture was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Phenotypic analysis of circulating PBMCs was also investigated by flow cytometry.Blood was obtained from individuals who consumed Bio-Three (10 9 CFU/d B.mesentericus,C.butyricum and E.faecalis) for 2 wk,or those who did not take probiotics orally. RESULTS:In culture supernatants,interferon-γ(IFN-γ) and interleukin(IL)-10 production increased,but IL-4 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)production by PBMCs decreased after 1 and 2 wk of probiotic treatment.Flow cytometry was also performed on day 14 and detected enhanced expression of CD11b,HLA-DR, CD4,CD45RA,CD25,CD44 and CD69 in response to Bio-Three.Furthermore,IL-10 and IL-12 were upregulated in supernatants of monocyte-derived DCs,and IFN-γand IL-10 were enhanced in supernatants of CD4 + T cells co-cultured with DCs. CONCLUSION:Bio-Three appeared to stimulate the Th1 immune response,downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α)and upregulate anti-inflammatory cytokine(IL-10).Probiotics could be effective in activation of PBMCs and DCs.展开更多

This study contributes to investigating its toxic effects by an embryonic stem cell test （EST） based on two human embryonic stem cell （hESCs） lines. Methods CH1 established in our own lab and H1, a federally registered cell line were two human embryonic stem cell lines used in this test. Four endpoint measurements were performed consisting of cell viability, proliferation ability, apoptosis as well as changes of gene expression patterns after spontaneous differentiation were determined. For measuring effects on the first three endpoints, the cells were treated with various concentrations of MEHP dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide （DMSO） and only with DMSO which served as control and harvested after 5 days. For measuring effects during spontaneous differentiation, the RNA of embryoid bodies （EBs） formed after 8 days＇ MEHP exposure was collected and changes in differentiation specific gene expression patterns were analyzed by quantitative real time RT-PCR. Results As a result the viability and proliferation ability of both cell lines decreased significantly at 1000 μmol/L MEHP, while there was no effect on apoptosis or cell morphology. In addition MEHP also changed the gene expression pattern in the EBs of both cell lines. Conclusion MEHP in a high dose was cytotoxic and affected the development of hESCs, which indicates its embryo toxicitv in human embrvos.展开更多
