Heating pad for the bleeding: external warming during hemorrhage improves survival.

Background: Hypothermia is common during hemorrhagic shock. To warm the victims or not has been controversial. This study aims to investigate the effect of warming during the initial time of hemorrhage on body temperature, blood pressure, and survival in rat hemorrhagic shock models.

[Prokaryotic expression and characterization of N-terminal truncated glycoprotein gp85 of Epstein-Barr virus].

Aim: To construct a prokaryotic recombinant vector of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) membrane protein gp85, to express the protein in E.coli and characterize the antigenicity of this non-glycosylated protein.

Methods: The BXLF2 gene coding 5'-terminal truncated of EBV gp85 was amplified from the EBV strain B95-8 cell line with specific primers.
