ABSTRACT
Objective To study killing effect of plasmas ozo ne water on microorganisms by plasmas ozone disinfection solution through plasma s ozone resulting from discharge along surface disinfection solution produced by machine and its effect factors. Methods Quantitative solut ion test was used to study killing action of plasmas ozone disinfection water to E. coli and staphyrococcus aureus, and to study its eff ect factors. Results Plasmas ozone water could kill 99.9% E. coli and staphyrococcus aureus after 15 min. The kill ing effect was affected by organism. With the increasing of organism concertrat ion, the killing efficacy increased. Conclusions Plasmas ozone can effectively kill microorgnisms in water and the efficacy was affected by org anism.

Methods Neutralizer test and efficacy of so lution of 2,4-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin in killing vegetative forms of ba cteria and spores. Neutralizer test and efficacy of solution of 2,4-dibromo-5, 5-dimethylhydantoin in destroying HBsAg antigenicity in suspension. Resul ts The killing rate of Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli. was 100 % a fter exposure to its solution containing 4 mg*L-1 and 2 mg*L-1 av ailable bromo after 10 min and 20 min. The killing rate of spores of Bacil lus subtilis var. Niger also was 100% after exposure to its solution co ntainin g 2 000 mg*L-1 available bromo after 30 min. Its solution containing 1 0 00 mg*L-1 available bromo with could destroy HBsAg in su spension for 5 min. Conclusions 2,4-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoi n can effe ctively kill vegetative forms of bacteria and spores of B. subtilis var.ni ger, and can completely destroy the antigenicity of HBsAg in the water.
ABSTRACT
Point prevalence rate of complete stroke on December 31, 1986 in China was investigated using a retrospecive section study for 5 814 851 people of 29 provinces and cities (excluding Taiwan province), and 14275 stroke cases were found. Point prevalence rate was 245.49 per 100000 people with 95% CI (confidence interval) 241.57-249.61 per 100000 people. The rate standardized by the constituent ratio of population between city and rural area of China in 1986 was 247.66 per 100000 people. The rate age-standardized by the population of China in 1982 accounted for 191.92 per 100000 and the rate agestandardized by the world standard population was 259.86 per 100000 people.It has also been found that there was a tendency for the prevalence rates to increase gradually from south to north and to decrease progressively from east to west. The linear regression models have been fitted between the point prevalence rates and latitude or longitude respectively. The results were Y= 12.3819?-1107.38 (tb = 4.65 df = 5 P = 0.0056) for longitudes and Y = 12.6279?-146.6266 (tb = 11.7517 df = 4 P = 0.0003) for latitudes. There was a difference statistically among various topographic areas. The prevalence rate was much higher in urban areas than rural areas and much higher in men than in women. The prevalence rate increased with age and their relationships have been fitted well with the logistic curve.
ABSTRACT
There is a tendency that the mortality of cerebrovascular disease increases with age.The data from several communities was mathematically analogized, and the mathematical model of age distribution of cerebrovascular disease mortality was establishedby using the exponential curve, Y = aebx .The model gives an account of the law ofage distribution of cerebrovascular disease mortality.The increment rate and"the increment multiple constant"of the increment rate of cerebrovascular disease mortality withage are calculated by using its differential equation, dy/dx =abebx. The two numeralsmay be used as indexes for comparison with risk degree and distribution law of cerebrovascular disease among several communities.In addition, the model may be used to predict cerebrovascular disease mortality and to evaluate the effect of preventive and curative measures for cerebrovascular disease.
ABSTRACT
The killing effects of five chemical disinfectants on hepatitis A virus (HAV) were determined by ELISA The results showed that 2% glutaraldehyde completely killed HAV within 10 min and 025% peracetic acid killed 74.5% HAV within 5 min and 40% iodophors killed 60.3% HAV within 5 min. It is suggested that glutaraldehyde, peracetic acid and iodophors are more effective agents to kill HAV.
ABSTRACT
A large-scale population survey has been made to clarify the degree of harm and feature of distribution of cerebrovascular disease (CVD) in China. The sample investigated was 5814851 from about a billion people in 29 provinces, municipal cities and autonomous regions except Taiwan in China. The incidence, prevalence and mortality rates have been standardized by the direct method using the world standard population. It has been found that the incidence rate of CVD in China was 109.95 per 100 000 people in 1986 and its 95%CI (confidence interval) was 107. 25 ~ 112. 65 per 100000. The age-standardized incidence rate was 115.87/100000. The point prevalence rate of CVD in China was 245.49 per 100000 people on December 31, 1986 and its 95%CI was 241.57-249.61 per 100000, with an age-standardized prevalence rate of 259.86 per 100000. The mortality rate of CVD was 76.78 per 100000 in 1986 and its 95%CI 74.52~79.04 per 100000, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 80.94 per 100000. It has also been found that there was a tendency for the rates to increase gradually from south to north and to decrease progressively from east to west. The models of linear regression have been established between latitude and rates as well as between longitude and rates, respectively. The incidence, prevalence and mortality rates of CVD differ significantly in various topographic areas. They were much higher in cities than in rural areas, and much higher in men than in women. The incidence, prevalence and mortality rates increased with the age, and their relationships were fitted with logistic curve, respectively.
