Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates the protective effects of Schisandrin B (SchB) on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice.
  • SchB pretreatment before LPS exposure reduced lung inflammation and damage, as seen in histological analyses and decreased lung weight and inflammation markers.
  • The mechanism of action involves SchB inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines by interfering with the P2X7/NF-κB signaling pathway.

The illuminance characteristics of LED (Lighting Emitting Diode) Surgical Luminaire is researched in this paper from the aspects of the LED Single-tube illumination analysis, LED arrays distribution and lighting design. The facula distribution characteristics of the LED prototype and multi-facet entirety reflection Surgical Luminaire is tested and compared according to the standards. The results of experimental show that LED prototype can fully meet the surgical illumination requirements, and the LED's own characteristics and further development will greatly broaden the space of medical lighting.

The aim of this study was to systemically analyze the proteins that adsorbed on the surface of hemodialysis membrane. The Fresenius F6 reused polysulfone dialyzers were selected as the research objects. The methodology we used encompassed the digestion of protein in rinsed solution and the separation of peptide mixture in virtue of RP-HPLC followed by ESI-MS/MS identification in orde to get their adsorption behavior, species and characteristics.

Selecting reused polysulfone membrane (PSM) dialyzers as research objects, we mainly analyzed quantitatively the adhesion ingredients which obstructed the passage through the membrane, and we investigated the differences of residual contaminants on the surface of PSM in the cases of various reuse times. The results illustrated that after the completion of dialysis, the dialyzer was first cleaned by reverse osmosis (RO) water to remove the protein adsorpted. Then we used 2% sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) solution to soak it, and the glucose, cholesterol and triglyceride adsorpted were dissolved off.
