ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyze the compatibility rationality between the raw material and auxiliary material sodium bisulfite in Zhengqin Fengtongning injection.Methods: HPLC was applied to detect the contents of the impurity and the main component in Zhengqing Fengtongning injection, and ion chromatography was applied to determine the content of sodium bisulfite in Zhengqing Fengtongning injection.The changes of impurity, main component and sodium bisulfite among the samples were compared before and after the stress testing (high temperature at 40℃, 60℃ and illumination at 4 500 lx).LC-MS-MS was used to identify the structures of the impurities.Results: The impurity in Zhengqing Fengtongning injection was the combination of the raw material and sodium bisulfite.Conclusion: It is irrational for Zhengqing Fengtongning injection to use sodium bisulfite as the antioxidant.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>Objective</b>To investigate the 5'-flanking regulatory sequence methylation status of the Boule gene in the testis tissue of infertile men with Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We collected biopsy samples of the testis tissue from 12 men with obstructive azoospermia (the control group) and 15 cases of SCOS, all without varicocele, cryptorchidism, or infectious disease. We extracted genomic DNA from the testis tissue of the SCOS patients, analyzed the characteristics of the 5'-flanking regulatory sequence of the Boule gene using the bioinformatics method, and detected the methylation status of the Boule gene by sodium bisulfite sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A CpG island was observed in the 5'-flanking regulation region of the Boule gene. The methylation level of the Boule gene was remarkably higher in the SCOS group than in the obstructive azoospermia controls (61.4% vs 21.7%, P<0.01), with significant differences in the methylation levels of 14 CpG sites, namely, －58 bp, －50 bp, －48 bp, －38 bp, －28 bp, －24 bp, －20 bp, －15 bp, －1 bp, +5 bp, +8 bp, +15 bp, +29 bp, and +58 bp.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The methylation level of the Boule gene is significantly higher in the SCOS patients than in the obstructive azoospermia males, which suggests that the changes in Boule methylation may be associated with spermatogenic dysfunction.</p>

Objective: To determine the impurities in pharmaceutical adjuvant sodium bisulfite. Methods: An IC method was used with a Dionex IonPac AS17-C RFIC analytical column. ECD was used as the detector by gradient elution and the temperature of column was 30℃. Results:Sulfate radical was detected out in all samples. Conclusion:The method is simple and fast with high sensi-tivity, which is suitable for the determination of related substances in sodium bisulfite.
ABSTRACT
Objective To remove formaldehyde of the low concentration in the indoor air and purify the indoor air. Methods The concentration of formaldehyde was determined by MBTH spectrophotometry and the removal efficiency of low concentration formaldehyde in the indoor air by using sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfite, ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride, ammonium molybdate and potassium permanganate was tested. Results As the concentration of formaldehyde was at 1 mg/L, 10 mg/L and 100 mg/L respectively, the removal rate of formaldehyde of sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfite and potassium permanganate was 15.9%, 74.7% and 93.5% respectively. On the acidity condition or alkalescence, potassium permanganate was also effective in removing of the different concentration formaldehyde was 23.8%, 74.7% and 93.5%. Ammonium molybdate and potassium permanganate could remove the formaldehyde by 25.9% and 35.7% when the concentration of formaldehyde was at 10 mg/L and 100 mg/L. Ammonium sulfate or ammonium chloride could not effectively remove the low concentration formaldehyde and the removal rate was under 7.0%. Conclusion On the acidity condition or alkalescence, potassium permanganate is effective in removing of the low concentration formaldehyde in the indoor air.
ABSTRACT
Antimutagenic effect of p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and sodium bisulfite (NaHSO_3)on the mutagenicity of N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was detected by the mehod of human lymphocytes unscheduled DNA Sythesis (LIDS). The results showed that when the concentration of PABA and NaHSO_3 was varied in presence of a constant concentration of MNNG, 5 ?10~(-5) mol/L concentration of PABA, 3 ? 10~(-4) mol/L concentration of NaHSO_3 were the most effective, while the concentration of MNNG varied in the presence of a constant concentration of PABA and NaHSO_3, antimutagenicity was the most effective at high concentration of MNNG. The results indicated that the PABA and NaHSO_3 exhibited antimutagenic activity towards MNNG-induced mutagenicity in LIDS and the extents of antimutagenicity were related with the concentration of MNNG.
