Like hemin, enzymatic bioactivities of Hb is inhibited by both deactivated agents and high temperature whereas enhanced by ethanol. With the catalytic action of Hb, quantitative method of QHS can be established based on the fluorescence decrease of PB and linear relationship between the fluorescence decrease ratio F0/F and the concentration of QHS is in the range of (0.0-1.1)×10^-6 mol·L^-1 with detection limit (3σ) being 7. 2×10^-9 mol·L^-1, The concentration of QHS in the media of plasma or urine was detected using this method.展开更多

A catalyst used commonly in the decomposition of QHS, tyrosinase, exhibited higher binding activity than hemin, which was expressed as Michaelis-Menten parameters, km, Vmax, and kcat respectively. Interaction of QHS with tyrosinase was inhibited in the presence of deactivating agents at high temperature whereas enhanced by ethanol. Under optimal conditions, a concentration of 1.4×10^-7-8.4×10^-7 mol·L^-1of QHS could be determined on the basis of fluorescence decrease ratio of PB, with a detection limit 3tr of 2.6×10^-9 mol·L^-1. The proposed method was applied to detection of the concentration of QHS in the media of plasma and urine.展开更多

Double stranded DNA in quiescent cells is easily denatured by weak acid into single strand. As double stranded nucleic acid combined with methyl green and single stranded nucleic acid with pyronin, we make use of methyl green pyronin staining method to the cells treated with weak acid to distinguish proliferating from quiescent cells. This paper reports the observation of leukemia cells in the bone marrow smears of 100 cases of untreated acute leukemia by DNA differential staining method. The percentage of Go cells was lowest in ALL and highest in APL.展开更多

[ Method] Using improved Gram staining method and methyl green pyronin staining method, the pathological sections of sick rabbits were stained and identified. [ Result] The pathological changes in brain tissue could be clearly observed on sections, but parasites were not examined in pathological brain tissues stained by common staining method. When the pathological section was stained by improved Gram staining method, the pathological changes in brain tissue were not ouly stained very clearly, but blue parasites were also found in brain tissues. The parasites in epithelioid cells were stained into purple ones by methyl green pyronin staining method. [ Conclusion] The im- proved Gram staining method and methyl green pyronin staining method performed good staining effects of E. cuniculi in pathological sections, which were conducive to rapid diagnosis of encephalitozoonosis in rabbit.展开更多
