Objective: To preparethe poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) microspheres and PLGA-chitosan microspheres containing recombinant protein, namely the BIB protein, and to explore their optimal preparation parameters and release performance in gastric and intestinal fluids.

Methods: Double emulsions (water-in-oil-in-water, or W1/O/W2) solvent evaporation method was used to prepare the BIB-PLGA microspheres and the BIB-PLGA-chitosan microspheres. Univariate analysis was done to study the impact of the water-to-oil ratio (W1/O), PLGA mass fraction and PVA concentration on the morphology, particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), encapsulation efficiency (EE), and drug loading (DL) so as to identify the optimal parameters.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of G-CSF therapy in patients suffering from acute-on-chronic liver failure due to hepatitis B virus by comparing a treatment group receiving G-CSF alongside standard therapy to a control group receiving only standard therapy.
  • - Results showed significant increases in peripheral neutrophil and CD34(+) cell counts in the G-CSF group, along with improvements in liver function scores (Child-Turcotte-Pugh and MELD scores) at various time points compared to controls.
  • - After three months of follow-up, the survival rate for the treatment group was notably better (48.1%) than for the control group (21.4%), indicating that G-CSF therapy could be beneficial for

Objective: Establish a confirmatory test based on ELISA, and use to verify the authenticity of HBsAg weak positive samples, pick and get rid of the false result, and avoid the mistake diagnosis.

Method: The particles (reagent A) coated by streptavidin and biotinylated HBsAb (reagent B) were mixed in different proportions, then neutralized with serum whose the COI of HBsAg > 20 by ELISA in order to identify the activity of HBsAb in confirmatory reagent. 30 pieces of HBsAg weak positive serum neutralized with the confirmatory reagent, the serum were considered to be positive if rate of decline of HBsAg COI > 50%.

Screening for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) demands highly sensitive and specific immunoassays with the ability to detect clinically relevant surface gene mutants-the presence of which is an increasing concern and can compromise test results. The objective of the study was to compare the clinical and technical performance of the fully automated Elecsys HBsAg II assay with other widely used HBsAg immunoassays in China. This was a multicentre study in which eight Chinese laboratories compared the Elecsys HBsAg II assay with the Architect HBsAg assay, AxSYM HBsAg assay, or generic microtitre plate (MTP) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (manufactured in China) against preselected samples, including recombinant surface gene mutants, and routine clinical samples.
