目的探讨在使用日立7060A型全自动生化分析仪时,碱性磷酸酶试剂对镁离子测定的影响情况及解决办法。方法采用不同的测试方式、两种剂型、两种含镁离子浓度的碱磷酶试剂来研讨对两种方法检测血清镁的影响情况。结果含镁浓度越高的ALP试剂对血清镁测定影响越大,对两种方法测定血清镁的影响程度不一样。结论可使用不含或少含镁离子的ALP试剂、清洗试剂针、设置合理的通道和选择适当测定方法来消除或减少ALP试剂对血清镁测定的影响。

Analysis on Activity of Immunity-related Enzymes in First Familiar Generation and Self Cross F1 of Platichthys stellatus Pallas

[Objective] The aim was to study the activity of immunity-related enzymes in each tissue of self cross F1 of Platichthys stellatus Pallas and first familiar generation of P.stellatus ♀×Verasper variegates ♂.[Method] The activity difference of three important non-specific immunity-related enzymes：acid phosphatase （ACP）,alkaline phosphatase （AKP） and superoxide dismutase （SOD） existed in muscle,liver,spleen and intestine of first familiar generation and self cross F1 of P.stellatus was compared.[Result] The activity of ACP and AKP in muscle,liver and intestine of first familiar generation was higher than that of self cross F1,while the activity of ACP and AKP in liver of first familiar generation showed no significant difference with that of self cross F1; the SOD activity decreased significantly in tissues expected for muscle.[Conclusion] The result had provided theoretic basis for the breeding of P.stellatus.

Biochemical response of the mussel Mytilus coruscus(Mytiloida:Mytilidae) exposed to in vivo sub-lethal copper concentrations

Many aquatic organisms are negatively affected by exposure to high copper concentrations. We investigated the biochemical response of the mussel Mytilus coruscus （Mytiloida： Mytilidae） to copper exposure. In vivo bioassays using M. coruscus and different copper concentrations were conducted. The activity of six biomarkers, namely superoxide dismutase （SOD）, catalase （CAT）, acid phosphatase （ACP）, alkaline phosphatase （AKP）, glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase （GOT） and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase （GPT） were measured. Survival rates decreased with increased copper concentrations and exposure times. The LCs0 values at 48, 72, and 96 h exposure were 0.48, 0.37, and 0.32 rag/L, respectively. Within digestive glands, CAT activity increased with increasing Cu concentrations. The activity of AKP showed no significant change, while the remaining four enzymes showed decreasing activity with increasing Cu concentrations. Within the gills, AKP activity increased when the Cu concentration was 0.05 mg/L, but showed no significant changes at higher concentrations. Activity of CAT and ACP within gills tended to decrease with increasing Cu concentration. The activity of SOD and GPT decreased at an exposure concentration of 0.2 mg/L. GOT activity within gills decreased at 0.1 mg/L and increased at an exposure concentration of 0.2 mg/L. Within the adductor muscle, AKP activity increased at 0.05 mg/L but did not change at higher exposure concentrations. ACP activity within adductor muscle tissue showed no change, while activities of CAT, GOT and GPT decreased with increasing Cu concentrations. SOD activity within the adductor muscle tissue significantly decreased at the 0.02, 0.05 and 0.2 mg/L exposure concentrations. Our results show tissue specific differences for the six biomarkers in for M. coruscus. Our findings provide the basis for the establishment of reference activity levels against which biomarker changes can be estimated, and are essential preliminary steps in development of in vivo bioassays.

Hepatoprotective evaluation of Anogeissus latifolia:In vitro and in vivo studies

AIM： To evaluate the hepatoprotective activity of a hydroalcoholic extract of the bark of Anogeissus latifolia; in vitro in primary rat hepatocyte monolayer culture and in vivo in the liver of Wistar rats intoxicated by carbon tetrachloride （CCl4）. METHODS： In the in vitro study, a primary hepatocyte monolayer culture was treated with CCh and extract of Anogeissus latifolia. Hepatoprotective activity was demonstrated in the CCh damaged primary monolayer culture. In the in vivo study, the hepatoprotective activity of a hydroalcoholic extract ofAnogeissus latifolia was analyzed in liver injured CCh-treated rats. Biochemical parameters including serum transaminases [aspartate aminotransferase （AST） and alanine aminotransferase （ALT）] and alkaline phosphatase （ALP） in serum wereanalyzed. The biochemical findings were supplemented with histopathological examination of rat liver sections. RESULTS： In vitro： primary hepatocyte monolayer cultures were treated with CCh and extract of Anogeissus latifolia. A protective activity could be demonstrated in the CCh damaged primary monolayer cultUre. In vivo： Hydroalcoholic extract of Anogeissus latifolia （300 mg/kg） was found to have protective activity in rats with CCh-induced liver damage as judged from serum marker enzyme activity. CONCLUSION： The above findings lead to the conclusion that the hydroalcoholic extract of Anogeissus latifol/a is hepatoprotective. Hence, we suggest that the inclusion of this plant in the management of liver disorders is justified.

Effect of E. coli coli on Anti-disease Activities of Scailops: Argopecten irradians

The effect of acute E. coli challenge on the anti-disease activity of scallops Argopecten irra-dians is examined. The treatments of scallop from which hemolymph samples were taken for study included (1) control scallops, (2) sham-injected scallops, (3) PSW-injected scallops and (4) E. coli-injected scallops. From the beginning, the anti-disease activities of scallops are deter -mined at 12 hr and 24 hr.The concentrations of circulating hemocytes, the total serum protein concentrations and the activities of alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and superoxide dismutase in the scallops Argopecten irradians are determined.Injection with E. coli results in a significant elevation in the concentration of circulating hemocytes and in the alkaline phosphatase activity and a significant decline in the total serum protein concentration and in the superoxide dismutase activity at 24 hr postchallenge. It shows that metabolism of bay scallop is expedited to adopt the challenge.

Dietary supplementation of some antioxidants against hypoxia

The present study aims to clarify the protective effect of supplementation with some antioxidants,such as idebenone(200 mg/kg,ip),melatonin(10 mg/kg,ip) and arginine(200 mg/kg,ip) and their combination,on liver function(T.protein,albumin,alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase),energetic parameters(adenosine triphosphate,adenosine diphosphate,adenosine monophosphate,inorganic phosphate,total adenylate,adenylate energy charge and potential phosphate).The effect on glycolytic and glycogenolytic enzymes(glucose,glycogen,glycogen phosphorylase,pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase against hypoxia) was also studied.The drugs were administered 24 and 1 h prior sodium nitrite intoxication.All biochemical parameters were estimated 1 h after sodium nitrite injection.Injection of sodium nitrite(75 mg/kg,sc) produced a significant disturbance in all biochemical parameters of liver function,energetic parameters and glycolytic and glycogenolytic enzymes.Hepatic damage was confirmed by histopathological examination of the liver as compared to controls.The marked changes in hepatic cells induced by sodium nitrite were completely abolished by pretreatment with the drug combination,suggesting potential protection against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia.It could be concluded that a combination of both idebenone and melatonin or idebenone and arginine provides potential protection against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia by improving biochemical parameters and preserving liver histology.
