Development of Piezoelectric Oscillation-Based Microarray Spotting System / 分析化学

A new type of piezoelectric oscillation-based non-contact spotting mode has been developed to overcome the disadvantages of traditional non-contact spotting modes including complicated operation procedure, cleaning difficulty of spotting needle, large sample consumption of electromagnetic microvalve and high spotting cost of piezoelectric inkjet based non-contact spotting mode. In the device, the capillary spotting needle and the piezoelectric driving device are two independent units used for replacing and cleaning capillary spotting needle. The glass capillary spotting needle is prepared by the laser melting method with adjustable diameter and low cost. The sample spotting volume of the device can be easily adjusted in the range of 10Symbolm_10-10Symbolm_9 by changing the amplitude and frequency of piezoelectric ceramic. A microarray spotting system is developed by the combination of the piezoelectric oscillation-based non-contact spotting mode and three dimensional precision displacement control technology. The multiple parameters of as-prepared microarray spotting system have been tested including spotting volume, density of spot and spotting precision. The experimental results indicate that the minimum volume of single spot with 320 pL and the highest density of spot with 4000 spots/cm2 can be achieved by the as-prepared microarray spotting system. Furthermore, the as-prepared microarray spotting system can also be employed to fabricate patterned interface.

Study and Application of Information System for Hospital Material Flow Management / 医疗卫生装备

Objective To develop an information system for hospital material flow management.Methods The system,taking financial accounting and hard assets controlling as the primary purpose and making the flow rebuild as the masterstroke,mainly consisted of seven functions as follows: management of medical material and non-hygiene material,management of antisepsis providing department,management of hard assets,management of drug,management of storehouse materials economical using and support in peacetime and war time,management of biohazard waste and management of the budget of finical IC card department.Results The system formed the information chain of the whole hospital material flow process and effectively controlled the hospital medical costs and operational costs.Furthermore,the system firstly developed the storehouse material economical using and support management system both in peacetime and war time in our country.Conclusion The information system for hospital material flow management can resolve the problem of financial and material management divorce and promote the hospital holistic management level.

Application of Management Information System for Medical High-value Consumables in Operation Room / 医疗卫生装备

Objective To make the management responsibility clear for guarding against the lacking of legal basis in patient lawsuits.Methods An implantable coding database for medical consumables was set.Barcode on packaging bag was scanned in 'information system'.'secondary management database for high-value consumables' was set in operation room.According to a warehouse-out list,the warehouse was checked monthly.Results The flow of all consumables was controlled.Conclusion Operational links are reduced and work efficiency is improved.Besides,the transparency of charges is increased.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2008,29(2):64-65]
