On-Site Assessment of a Cryogenic Disinfectant for the Alpine Environment and Outer Packaging of Frozen Items / 生物医学与环境科学（英文）

OBJECTIVE@#To study the effectiveness and feasibility of cryogenic disinfectants in different cold scenarios and analyze the key points of on-site cryogenic disinfection.@*METHODS@#Qingdao and Suifenhe were selected as application sites for the manual or mechanical spraying of cryogenic disinfectants. The same amount of disinfectant (3,000 mg/L) was applied on cold chain food packaging, cold chain containers, transport vehicles, alpine environments, and article surfaces. The killing log value of the cryogenic disinfectant against the indicator microorganisms ( Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) was used to evaluate the on-site disinfection effect.@*RESULTS@#When using 3,000 mg/L with an action time of 10 min on the ground in alpine regions, the surface of frozen items, cold-chain containers, and cold chain food packaging in supermarkets, all external surfaces were successfully disinfected, with a pass rate of 100%. The disinfection pass rates for cold chain food packaging and cold chain transport vehicles of centralized supervised warehouses and food processing enterprises were 12.5% (15/120), 81.67% (49/60), and 93.33% (14/15), respectively; yet, the surfaces were not fully sprayed.@*CONCLUSION@#Cryogenic disinfectants are effective in disinfecting alpine environments and the outer packaging of frozen items. The application of cryogenic disinfectants should be regulated to ensure that they cover all surfaces of the disinfected object, thus ensuring effective cryogenic disinfection.

Changes in location parameters of the ciliary body and its correlation with narrow angle in patients with acute primary angle closure glaucoma / 眼科新进展

Objective To observe the positional variation of the ciliary body in eyes with acute primary angle-closure glaucoma (APACG) by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM),and to analyze the association between anterior chamber angle width and location parameters of the ciliary body in patients with APACG.Methods The subjects were divided into APACG group and normal control group and examined by UBM,and the clearer images were collected for quantitative analysis,followed by measurement of parameters including angle open distance 500 (AOD500),trabecular meshwork-ciliary process distance (TCPD),iris-ciliary process distance (ICPD),sclera-ciliary process angle (SCPA) and ciliary body length 500 (CBL500).Results Totally 89 patients (89 eyes) were enrolled in this study,including 57 patients with APACG (APACG group)and 32 normal controls (normal control group).According to the age-sex paired t test,the average of 23 pairs of measured data showed that the AOD500,TCPD,ICPD,SCPA,and CBL500 were (0.050 4 ± 0.031 0) mm,(0.499 6 ± 0.192 4) mm,(0.112 6 ± 0.089 2)mm,(35.317 0 ±4.575 2)° and (1.060 4 ±0.290 2)mm in the APACG group,and (0.242 6 ±0.078 5)mm,(0.741 7 ±0.240 4) mm,(0.272 6 ±0.218 8) mm,(44.913 0 ±10.089 2) ° and (0.633 0 ± 0.405 4)mm in the normal control group,respectively;and APACG group presented smaller AOD500,TCPD,ICPD and SCPA but larger CBL500 than normal control group,with significant differences (all P ＜ 0.01).Correlation analysis showed that TCPD,ICPD,SCPA and CBL500 were significantly correlated with AOD500 in APACG group.Conclusion Ciliary bodies are more anteriorly rotated in eyes with APACG,and anterior chamber angle width is associated with location parameters of ciliary body.
