The sequence encoding of the mature protein of STX1 A of E.coli O157 strain 94H, isolated from some patient in China, was amplified by PCR. The primers were designed from STX1 toxin gene sequence of E. coli strain 933W. The amplified gene was cloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a. Then the recombinant pET28a-stx1A was transformed into host strain E. coli BL21 (DE3). Expressed recombinant STX1 A was used to immunize rabbits to prepare anti-serum. The IgG fraction of the antiserum was cross-linked with the latex particle suspension to yield a final immunoglobulin. The described methods enabled a sensitive and simple assay of STX1 A production.

 The applicability of apparent viscosity in the investigation of synergistic interaction between two different polymerswas studied. Simple concentration additivity and viscosity additivity are the two commonly used criteria for judging the synergistic effect in binary biopolymer systems. When the viscosity indexes of both polymers are greater than one, the viscosity of mixture calculated from viscosity additivity is lesser than that calculated from concentration additivity. When the viscosity indexes of both components are less than one, the viscosity of mixture calculated from viscosity additivity is greater than that calculated from concentration additivity. The relationship between two methods is quite complex when the viscosity index of one component is greater than one and the other one is less than one. When the viscosity indexes of two components are both equal to one, the two methods are identical.

The in vitro digestibility of soy protein isolates (SPI) and the effects of thermal treatments were investigated. SDS- PAGE analysis showed that, glycinin of SPI was the most easily digested by pepsin, andβ-conglycinin was the most difficult. In all the subunits of β-conglycinin, theα-subunits were the most susceptive subunits. TCA-NSI analysis indicated that, at a certain protein concentration, the nitrogen release of SPI by pepsin during the enzyme incubation was dependent upon the enzyme concentration applied. In addition, the in vitro digestibility of SPI was affected by different thermal treatments. The dry heat-treatment (i.e., at 80℃ for 30~60min) nearly did not affect the in vitro digestibility by pepsin, while under the same conditions, the wet heat-treatments could remarkably improve the digestive extent of pepsin and trypsin upon SPI. This result suggested that the in vitro digestibility of SPI depended on its extent of denaturation.

 Carnosine is a dipeptide found in skeletal muscle and nervous tissue, reported to possess antioxidant activity. To determine its antioxidant activity, three methods were used, namely: the reduction of K3Fe(CN)6, the system of BSA oxidation induced by CuCl2-H2O2 and BSA glycation induced by glucose. The results showed that carnosine possessed the reducing power; the presence of carnosine significantly decreased the protein carbonyl formation in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.01) and inhibited BSA oxidation. Carnosine was saccharified by glucose and the amount of saccharification end products increased (p< 0.01) with the increasing concerntration of carosine.

The paper studied the fat content and fatty acids composition in intramuscular and subcutaneous fat of male and female pigs. Meanwhile the change of lipid oxidation of chilled pig stored in (4±0.5)℃ and dark was assayed. The results showed: 1. The effects of sex on the components and contents of intramuscular and subcutaneous fatty acid were not significant ( p>0.05). 2. The lipid oxidation of intramuscular fat was higher than subcutaneous fat (p<0.05) during storage. 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value of intramuscular fat was close to 0.5mg/kg while the subcutaneous fat was below 0.2mg/kg at the fifth day. It was usually felt off-odour when the TBA value was over 0.5mg/kg. Hence it was crucial to control the intramuscular lipid oxidation so as to ensure good chilled pig quanlity.

A new, simple and rapid spectophotometric FI technique for accurate determination of I- has been developed. The method was based on the decrease of absorbance intensity of rhodamine B due to the complexation with [I2Br]-, which I- could be selectively oxidated to form I2 by Ce(Ⅳ) in acidic medium where I2 reacted with Br- to form [I2Br]-. Which I- could be selectively oxidated to form I2 by Ce(IV) in acdic medium where I2 reacted with Br- to form [I2Br]-. At this moment, some changes of the solution’s color took place. It was found useful for sensitivity test in CTMAB media. The absorption peak of the complexation increased linearly by addition of I-, occured at 585nm. Optimization of chemical and FI variables has been made. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration curve obtained was linear over the range 50~1000μg/L, while the detection limit was lower than 20 μg/L, and the precision level ( RSD=0.85%, n=10 ) was found quite satisfactory. This method showed good sensitivity and selectivity. Proper amount of inorganic acid radical ions, metal ions and other halide ions would not interfere the determination. Application of the method to the analysis of I- in kelp, laver, common salt or sea salt would result a good agreement between the expected and found values.

Treatment T4, grapes were sprayed with nothing before harvest, and placed in the bag, with 7bags CT2 and 1g iodine. The iodine was enclosed in a small plastic bag with a hole whose diameter was 1mm. In control CK1, grapes were sprayed with nothing, while control CK2, with instilled water before harvest. Temperature was controlled at -1℃and relative humidity at 95% during storage. After 180 days, bleaching indexes of treatment T1, T2 ,T3 and T4 decreased to 45.94% and 44.73%, 66.24% and 65.80%, 44.16% and 43.44%, 58.88% and 58.35% respectively in comparison with CK1 and CK2. The agents mixed with SO2 could not weaken the antisepsis capability of SO2. On the contrary, iodine strengthened it. Potassium iodide could strengthen the capability of the inhibition on browning of SO2, but iodine could weaken and sodium polyphosphate had insignificant effect on it.

Like many metal-binding proteins, lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in high concentrations in human and bovine milk, in the granules of neutrophils and several mucosal secretions. Many biological functions have been ascribed to LF (lactoferrin). It is a component of the non-specific immune system with distinct antiviral properties. This pape reviews the present knowledge about the antiviral activities and, when possible, the antiviral modes of action of this protein. Lactoferrin displays antiviral activity against HIV, both DNA- and RNA-viruses, including rotavirus, respiratory syncytial virus, and herpes viruses. The most antiviral effects of LF are in the early phase of infection. Lactoferrin prevents entry of virus in the host cell, either by blocking cellular receptors, or by direct binding to the virus particles. This obviously is quite different from the cytokine such as INF before.
