[Fat and fatty acid content in freshwater and saltwater fish in 4 provinces].

Objective: To explore the differences in fat and fatty acids content between freshwater and saltwater fish.

Methods: The fat and fatty acids content in 83 fish meat samples from four regions(Hainan, Jiangsu, Fujian, and Guangxi) were detected by national standard method. Mann-Whitney U tests and t-tests were used to compare the differences in fat and major fatty acid content between freshwater and saltwater fish.

[Differences and correlations in phenolic acid content in the pulp of various categories of fruits in Shenzhen].

Objective: To detect phenolic acid compounds in various fruits and explore the differences in phenolic acids among different types of fruits.

Methods: The collected 75 types of fruits were classified into 6 categories: citrus、melon、drupe、berry、tropical fruit and pome fruits. The phenolic acid compounds were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.

[Determination of 13 kinds of free and bound phenolic acids in fruits by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry].

Objective: To establish a high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS) method for detecting 13 kind of free and bound phenolic acids(chlorogenic acid, protocatechuic acid, ferulic acid, p-coumaric acid, gallic acid, gentisic acid, vanillic acid, caffeic acid, syringic acid, sinapic acid, rosmarinic acid, salicylic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid) in fruits, and optimize the pre-treatment conditions to meet the detection requirements for phenolic acid content in various types of fruits.

Methods: Free phenolic acids in fruits were extracted using methanol through ultrasonic extraction. Conjugated phenolic acids in the centrifuged residue were released by alkaline hydrolysis and extracted with ethyl acetate.

The Influence Mechanism of Vegetation Type on the Characteristics of nirS-Type Denitrifying Microbial Communities in Qinghai Lake Wetlands.

Soil denitrification is an important process in the emission of NO, an atmospheric greenhouse gas. Environmental factors of different vegetation types are largely heterogeneous, which may directly or indirectly affect NO fluxes. Through high-throughput sequencing of the nitrite reductase gene nirS, this study investigated the influence of vegetation type on the structure and diversity of denitrifying microbial communities in Qinghai Lake wetlands, China.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the superoxide dismutase (SOD) gene family in Salvia miltiorrhiza.

Adverse environmental conditions, such as salinity, cold, drought, heavy metals, and pathogens affect the yield and quality of Salvia miltiorrhiza, a well-known medicinal plant used for the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), a key enzyme of antioxidant system in plants, plays a vital role in protecting plants against various biotic and abiotic stresses via scavenging the reactive oxygen species produced by organisms. However, little is known about the SOD gene family in S.

[Quantification and comparison of fatty acid between white peanuts and red peanuts].

Objective: To investigate the difference of fatty acid content and types between red peanuts and white peanuts.

Methods: After being hydrolyzed, extracted, and methyl-esterificated, fatty acid in the sample were separated with the chromatographic column HP-88( 100 m × 0. 25 mm × 0.

Efficacy and safety of parecoxib/phloroglucinol combination therapy versus parecoxib monotherapy for acute renal colic: a randomized, double-blind clinical trial.

To investigate whether the addition of phloroglucinol to parecoxib could improve the efficacy in patients with acute renal colic. Patients of acute renal colic were randomly allocated to receive intravenous Parecoxib 40 mg plus placebo or Parecoxib 40 mg plus phloroglucinol 80 mg, respectively. Pain intensity was recorded using a visual analog scale (VAS) before drug administration and 5, 15, 30, 60, and 120 min after treatment start.

A report of 918 cases of circumcision with the Shang Ring: comparison between children and adults.

Objective: To compare the clinical outcome and surgical complications in circumcision using the Shang Ring between children and adults.

Methods: Circumcision using the Shang Ring was performed on 702 adults and 216 children. Comparative analysis on indices including operative time, healing time, postoperative edema, postoperative bleeding, postoperative pain, and postoperative infection was conducted.

Facilitation of Ih channels by P2Y1 receptors activation in Mesencephalic trigeminal neurons.

P2Y(1) receptors, a subset of G-protein coupled receptors, have been shown to participate in sensory transduction in the periphery nervous system. However, little is known about their sensory function in the central nervous system. Here, by using immunohistochemistry, we showed that P2Y(1) receptors are predominantly localized in the somata of Mesencephalic trigeminal neurons (Mes V neurons), the primary sensory neurons in brainstem.

Reinvestigation of the effect of orexin A on catecholamine release from adrenal chromaffin cells.

Orexins have been shown to be implicated in the regulation of adrenal medulla functions. However, there are still inconsistent investigations on the effects of orexins on catecholamine release from chromaffin cells in varying species. In the present study, using the carbon-fiber amperometry, we investigated whether orexin A would stimulate catecholamine release from rat and mouse adrenal chromffin cells.
