Heavy and light chains were detected on electrophoresis gel, with molecular weights being estimated at 72 and 29 kDa, respectively. The tetrameric IgM of S. chuatsi was calculated to be 808 kDa. The rabbit polyclonal antisera against the purifed immunoglobulin were developed and tested by Western blot analysis. The antisera reacted strongly with the heavy chains of S. chuatsi immunoglobulin. Humoral immune responses of the mandarin fish can then be examined using the developed polyclonal antibody.展开更多

Methods A total of 170 male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into 17 groups （n= 10） using ran- dom number tables. Short-term （40 minutes） mechanical ventilation with high tidal volume （HVT） was per- formed to induce lung injury, impair active Na＋ transport and lung liquid clearance in the rats. Unventilated rats served as controls. To demonstrate the effect of phenylephrine on AFC, phenylephrine at different con- centrations （1×10^-5, 1 ×10^-6, 1×10^-7, 1×10^-8, and 1×10^-9 mol/L） was injected into the alveolar space of the HVT ventilated rats. To identify the influence of adrenergic antagonists, Na＋ channel, and microtubular sys- tem on the effect of phenylephrine, phenylephrine at 1×10^-5mol/L combined with prazosin （an α1-adrener- gic antagonist, 1×10^-4 mol/L）, yohimbine （an α2-adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-4 mol/L）, atenolol （a β1- adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-5 mol/L）, ICI- 118551 （an β2-adrenergic antagonist, 1×10^-5 mol/L）, amiloride （a Na＋ channel blocker, 51×10^-4mol/L）, ouabain （a Na＋/K＋-ATPase blocker, 5~×10^-4mol/L）, colchicine （a mi- crotubular disrupting agent, 0.25 mg/100 g body weight）, or β-lumicolchicine （an isomer of colchicine, 0.25 mg/100 g body weight） were perfused into the alveolar space of the rats ventilated with HVT for 40 minutes. AFC and total lung water content were measured. Results Basal AFC in control rats was （17.47±2.56）%/hour, which decreased to （9.64± 1.32）%/hour in HVT ventilated rats （P=0.003）. The perfusion of phenylephrine at 1 ×10^-8, 1×10^-7, 1×10^-6, and 1×10^-5 mol/L significantly increased the AFC in HVT ventilated rats （all P〈0.05）. This effect of phenylephrine on AFC was suppressed by prazosin, atenolol, and ICI-118551 in HVT ventilated rats by 53%, 31%, and 37%, respectively （all P〈0.05）. The AFC-stimulating effect of phenylephrine was lowered by 33% and 42% with amiloride and ouabain, respectively （both P〈0.05）. Colchicine significantly inhibited the effect of phenylephrine （P=0.031）. Conclusion Phenylephrine could increase the AFC in HVT-ventilated rats and accelerate the ab- sorption of pulmonary edema.展开更多

The dissolution process of penicillin mycelium was investigated using ionic liquids （ILs） as solvent. Quantitative correlation of solubility and ILs structure and dissolution mechanism were determined. About 91 45% of penicillin mycelium was dissolved in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate （[Bmim]Ac） under the condition of 120.0℃C and [Bmim]Ac/ mycelium （m/m） ratio of 3.90：1. Synergistic effect of ILs and DMSO was confirmed with the DMSO/[Bmim]Ac （v/m） ratio in the range of 0.0-1.0. At 25.0 ℃, the dissolution of penicillin mycelium increased from 69.74% to 94.50%, with the ratio of DMSO to [Bmim]Ac （v/m） as 1：1. The room temperature dissolution of mycelium provides a novel and energy-saving process for its high-valued utilization. The NMR and FT-IR spectra showed that hydrogen bonds are the dominant driving force for the dissolution in ILs. Quantitative study on the effects of anions and cations of lLs on dissolution using Kamlet-Taft model showed that there was a linearly positive correlation between solubility of penicillin mycelium and β parameter of the ILs. The solubility of mycelium increased with increasing hydrogen bond accepting ability of anions and donating ability of cations.展开更多
