RESUMO
Fluorescence probe Fluo-3AM can be luminary in confocal microscope after combining Ca2+,So nomadic Ca2+ in cytoplasm can be measured and tested by this way.Some confocal laser scan images are obtained after calcium in muscle fibers signed with F1uo-3AM. Then mapping function is used to convert the gray level image into colorful image by pseudo-color enhancement theory in digital image.Compared to the original gray level image,the processed pseudo-color image could be more easily distinguished.So the methods had a great value in Ca2+ detection fields.

RESUMO
Objective To discuss the method of calling MATLAB in VB application program based on ActiveX.Methods MATLAB provided automatic service support to ActiveX,and MATLAB could be called as ActiveX of interpreter through ActiveX automatic interface.Results Good effect was achieved when this method was applied to noise filtering of patch clamp.Conclusion By using this method,users can embedded mix programming in self-developed application software conveniently,thus reducing the difficulties in programming.
RESUMO
Wavelet transform(WT) is a powerful technique in signal separation and can improve the signal-to-noise ratio by separating the white noise and useful signal.The method in the paper introduces the concepts of Wavelet transform.According to the analysis of Wavelet coefficients between the noise and signal at different levels,the appropriate filter is realized.The patch clamp experiment results demonstrate the feasibility of the method.
RESUMO
Objective To study on wavelet transform in calcium sparks image de-noising when excitation contraction cou-pling(ECC) was studied and researched by scanning confocal microscopy,in order to elucidate the mechanism of ECC.But due to the noise exist in most calcium sparks image,it is hardly to recognize and analyze the useful information of calcium sparks.So how to increase the signal-to-noise rate is very important in calcium spark studying.Methods By using the self-developed software based on multi-scale wavelet transform to remove the noise exists in the calcium sparks images.Results The experiments shows that the method can be increased the signal-to-noise rate in about 80 calcium sparks images.Con-clusion The new method for calcium spark expression and spatial and temporal analysis is provided.
RESUMO
Intracellular calcium distribution was studied in myocardial cells of mice by using pyroantimonate cytochemistry and EDX microanalysis. The results demonstrated that both OPP and PPP methods had a selective localization of intracellular bound calcium, and OPP method was more sensitive to calcium. The distribution of calcium in myocardial cells is highly departmentalized, and its mam pools were confined to sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Calcium eylochemical localization is very useful in studying the effect of calcium in metabolism and pathogenesis of myocandial cells.
RESUMO
We report in detail ultrastructural changes and freezing damage mechanism about heart muscle and some organelles after rapid freezing. The ventricles of rat heart were cut pieces about 100-150/?m by microsiicer. The pieces were quickly injected liquid cryogen Freon 22 by Reichert-Jung spring-assistant mechanism (KF-80). The specimens frozen were rapidly transferred into substitution medium aceton and kept at -80℃(28h), then -60℃ (48h),-20℃(12h)and 4℃ (1 h). The structures of specimens frozen were well and there were no ice crystals in the area of the tissue frozen surface to 20?m depth. However, there were freezing damages in mitochondrial crista, intercellular substance and muscular fibre in the tissue surface to 30?m depth. The structure of tissue was destroyed by ice crystal over 50?m depth in the tissue. The results suggest that intercellular substance and mitochondrial crista are the most sensitive to ice crystal damage after rapid freezing of heart tissue, then the less sensitive are muscular fibre and nucleus. The unit membrane is not easy to be damaged by ice crystal.
