Integrated Control of Agricultural Non-point Source Pollution to Provide Safe and Healthy Drinking Water for Rural Areas

Agricultural non-point source pollution has become the main part of water pollution prevention and control in China. This paper made a brief introduction to the causes and hazards of agricultural non-point source pollution and the current situation of agricultural non-point source pollution prevention and control in China. In view of the serious agricultural non-point source pollution in water environment of Guangxi and the difference in quality of drinking water between urban and rural areas,it came up with recommendations for strengthening agricultural non-point source pollution prevention and control from scientific distribution,linked operation and maintenance,popular science education,and legal system construction,to guarantee safe and healthy drinking water in rural areas.

Study on Extraction Method of Selenium-enriched Rice

[Objectives] The aims were to optimize the extraction process of selenoproteins from selenium-enriched rice in Guangxi and provide references for the intensive processing and comprehensive utilization of selenium protein resources. [Methods]Selenium-enriched rice was used as materials to extract selenoproteins by phosphate buffer extraction method and to optimize the extraction process of selenoproteins by using the orthogonal experiment. Proteins and selenium content was measured by Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 reagent and AFS（ atomic fluorescence spectrometry） respectively. [Results] The most significant factor affecting extraction of rice Selenoproteins was extraction NaO H concentration,followed by the ratio of solid-liquid,temperature and then extraction time. The optimum extraction conditions of selenoproteins from rice were extraction temperature of 50 ℃,NaO H concentration of 0. 14 mol/L,extraction time of 5 h,and solid-liquid ratio of 1∶ 30. [Conclusions]The alkali extraction process optimized by orthogonal test could effectively improve the extraction rate of selenoproteins,and the optimized process parameters could be popularized and applied in practical production.

Expression of STAT3 in non-small cell lung cancer and its clinical significance

Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3) plays an important role in tumor occurrence and development. Here we attempt to evaluate the clinical diagnostic value of STAT3 as a potential tumor marker by detecting the expression of STAT3 in blood of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect STAT3 protein in A549 cells and MRC-5 cell, real time PCR was applied to detect STAT3 mRNA and ELISA was applied to detect the expression of STAT3 protein in NSCLC patients, benign lung disease group and healthy controls. The expression levels of STAT3 mRNA and STAT3 protein in A549 cells and NSCLC patients were significantly higher (P < 0.01). The areas under ROC curves (Az) of STAT3 mRNA and STAT3 protein were 0.870 and 0.860 respectively, which had no significant difference (P > 0.05). When comparing the Az of STAT3 protein with CEA, CA125 and CYFRA21-1 respectively, there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). And we compared the Az of the four joint detection (STAT3 + CEA + CA125 + CYFRA21-1) with the three joint detection (CEA + CA125 + CYFRA21-1), 0.930 and 0.841, respectively, P < 0.05. It appears that the diagnostic value and accuracy of STAT3 is equivalent with CEA, CA125, and CYFRA21-1 in NSCLC, and to joint with other three can achieve higher diagnosis value.

Effects of Several Passivating Agents on Improvement of Cd Polluted Soil

Clay minerals,phosphates,alkaline materials,organic materials are common improvers in the management of Cd polluted soil. This paper systematically summarized types of common soil improvers and their passivation mechanism of Cd in soil. It reviewed advances in researches of soil improvers. Besides,it introduced major problems in four common passivating agents for management of Cd polluted soil. Finally,according to different mechanism characteristics of passivating agents,it came up with some recommendations.

Standardized Production Technology of Selenium-enriched Hylocereus undatus(pitaya) in Natural Selenium-rich Areas

With the adjustment of the tropical and subtropical fruit industry organizations in southern China, the Hylocereus undatus(pitaya) industry is growing rapidly in subtropical Guangxi and other places. Guangxi is also the largest natural selenium-rich region in the country, and selenium-enriched pitaya is increasingly sought after by the general public. This paper described in detail the selection of selenium-enriched pitaya production fields, key planting techniques and core selenium enrichment techniques, with a view to providing technical guidance for the standardized production of selenium-enriched pitaya and providing technical support for improving the quality and efficiency of pitaya production in natural selenium-rich areas.
