Abstract:Objective To investigate the protective mec,hanism of soybean isoflavones ( SIF) against the inflammatory impairment in the brain of rats induced by [3-amyloid peptidel-42 (A[31-42). Methods Based on the body weight of rats, 32 healthy Wistar rats ( male, aged 3 months) were randomly divided into four groups ( control, A[3, SIF +A[3 and SIF groups). The inflammatory impairment model was established by injecting A[3142 (10肛g) into the lateral cerebral ve,ntricle of rats with micropump for 14 days. The rats in SIF + A[3 and SIF groups were treatecl with SIF ( 80 mg/kg bw) per day by gavaging for 14 days before the injection of A[3, while the rats in control group and A[3 group were treated with 0.5 % CMC-Na. On the 15'h day after A[3 injection, the rats were killed for the mRNA and protein expression of interleukin-1[3 ( 11-1 [3) , inducible nitric oxide synthase ( iNOS) and interleukin-10 ( IL-10) in brain tissue tested hy RT- PCR and western blot. Results Comparing with the A[3 group, the mRNA and protein expression of IL-1[3, iNOS and IL- 10 0f SIF treated groups were decreased significantly ( P < 0. 05). Conclusion The expression of IL-1[3, iNOS ancl IL-10 at gene and peotein level could be down-regulated by soy isoflavones, therefore the inflammatory damage induc:ed by A[31- 42 was inhibitd.

Abstract:Objective To evaluate the antimicrobial resistances of Li.steria mon,ocytogen,en,s isolated from food in China. Methods The susceptibility of 1 069 strains of Listeria mon,ocytogen,es isolated from foocl t0 15 antibiotics currently used in veterinary and human therapy were tested. Susceptibility tests were performed by using broth mic:rodilution susceptihility test in Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Results Among the 1 069 tested strains, the resistance to one kind of antibiotics was 33 (3. 1% ) , to two kinds of antibiotics was 38 (3. 6% ) and to three kinds of antibiotics was 3 (0. 28% ). The foods with the highest antibiotic resistance rate were frozen ric:e and flour products. Among the 22 provinces, Cansu, Jilin and Fujian were the three top provinces with the highest antibiotic resistance rates of 27. 3% , 20. 4% and 17. 4% , respectively. Conclusion Foodborn Listeria m,onotogenen,.s strains in China are susceptible to the antibiotics commonly used in veterinary and clinical medicine. Considering the emergence of antimicrobial resistance of Lisiteria monocytogen,es is slow, continued surveillance and management of the clinical and veterinary use of antibiotics to reduc:e the resistant strains is important.

Abstract:Objective To understand the serotypes and the sensitivities of foodborne Salmon,ella to antibiotic in Shandong province from 2003 t0 2010, and to provide a basis for policy making on the rational use of drugs in clinical ancl veterinary medicine. Methods The identification of Salmon,ella strains and serotypes was based on GB/T 4789-2008. The antiruicrobial susceptibility of the isolated strains was determined and judged by the mini broth dilution technique rec:ommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute ( CLSI). Results The serotypes of 120 Salmon,ella strains which had been identified in Shandong were belonged t0 5 groups (8 subgroups) and 24 serotypes. S. Enteritidis and S. Derby were the ruost common strains; and ,_S. Chwarzengrund, S. Wien, S. Blegdam, S. Muenster and S. Ughelli were detected in Shandong province for the first time. The degree of resistance of 126 Salmonella strains t0 14 antibiotics was different with the highest resistance to naliclixic acid (61. 900/o ) , and followed by tetracycline (33. 33% ) , ampicillin (31. 75% ) and sulfadiazine ( 26. 19% ). The most sensitive antibiotic is cefepime (5. 37% ) , following by amikacin (9. 52% ) and c:iprofloxacin ( 10. 32% ) . Conclusion The situation on the resistance of foodborne Salmon,ella is serious in Shandong province. It is necessary to strengthen the manageruent of using antibiotics in animal husbandry. Reasonahlesteps should he taken by relevant departments from the source of food chain on animal food production to ensure food safety.

Abstract:Objective To obtain active Salmonella typhimurium strains with resistance to sarafloxacin hydrochloride in vitro and investigate the lowest concentration of sarafloxacin that can cause the resistance of Salmonella typhimurium, which could provide the basis for the evaluation of microhial resistance caused by sarafloxacin residues in food. Methods In inducing the drug resistance of Salmonella typhimurium, the concentration of standard hydrochloric acid sarafloxacin in culture media was 0 μg/ml in blank control group and 0.001, 0.002 5, 0.005, 0.025, 0.05, 0. 1 μg/ml in 6 experimental groups respectively, and also a solvent control group (NaOH) was set. The MIC of induced strains was tested by NCCLS methods and the bacterial resistance was determined according to ≥8 × MIC(0.25 μg/ml). PCR amplification of the quinolone resistance-determining region of gyrA in resistant Salmonella typhimurium was performed and the amplicons subjected to a pyrosequencing protocol was identified for 5 common mutation sites, Ala67, Gly81, Asp82, Ser83 and Asp87. Results The MIC of the 10th generation of Salmonella typhimurium induced by 0.005 μg/ml of sarafloxacin hydrochloride was increased 32 times, and the bacteria stopped proliferation while the inhibitory concentration increased to 1 μg/ml. Several stable, bioactive resistant strains with a mutation in gyrA at Ser83 were obtained at the 25 passage. The bacteria could not grow when the concentration was ≤0.002 5 μg/ml. Conclusion The resistance of Salmonella typhimurium could be induced by sarafloxacin at a concentration of 0.005 μg/ml, and drug-resistant strains with biological activity could be obtained several passages.

Abstract:Objective To investigate the contamination status of heavy metals in common marine products originated from the yellow sea and bohai sea areas in Yantai. Methods The levels of Hg, Crl, Ph, As and Sh in marine products were deterruined by Atomic Fluorescence and Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry. The results were analyzed and evaluated by variance analysis, single factor pollution index and metal pollution index, and the results were compared with those from other sea areas. Results The average levels of Hg, Ccl, Pb, As, Cu and Sb in marine products were 0.044m~kg, 0. 602mg/kg, 0. 258mg/kg, 0. 167mg/kg, 7. 934mg/kg, and 0. 0063mg/kg respectively. The severity of contamination of heavy metals was different in various marine products. The contamination of Cd evaluated by single factor pollution index was the worst. The average levels of Cd in squid, short-leg octopus, scallop, edible mantis shrimp, crab and the average levels of As in razor clam were impermissibly high. The average levels of other heavy metals hased on the evaluation with the metal pollution index were normal. The abilities of accumulating heavy metals of crab, eclible ruantis shrimp, short-leg octopus, squid and razor clam were more intensive in comparison with other marine products. Conclusion The distribution of Hg, Cd, Pb, As and Sb in marine products in the yellow sea and bohai sea areas was uneven. The contamination of Cd, As and Pb was especially bad, which indicated that much attention should be devoted to the problem of environmental pollution in offshore and coastal zones.

Methods Self-prepared cold dishes were collected from 373 catering units in Xicheng district of Beijing from April of 2009 to May of 2010 to inspect aerohic bacterial counts, coliform bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, .Salmon,ella and Shigella. Results The total eligible rate of hacteriological indicators inspected on 1917 cold dishes was 73. 81%. The eligible rate of aerohic bacterial count and coliform bacteria was 88. 63% and 77. 83% , respectively. N。 pathogen was detected in cold dishes. The eligible rates of cold dishes prepared from unheated principal raw materials ( 58. 60% ) or vegetables (70. 37% ) were low. Conclusion The bacterial contamination is serious in self-prepared cold dishes among catering units in Xicheng district of Beijing. The most serious problem was the high rate of coliform bacteria contamination exceeding standards in all or part of cold dishes prepared from principal raw materials unheated materials or vegetables.
