In vitro characteristics of human fetal cells obtained from chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis

In vitro characteristics of human fetal cells have been investigated after chorionic villus sampling at the first trimester and amniocentesis at the second trimester of pregnancy. Light microscopy revealed heterogeneous morphology of cell types in both the chorionic villus culture and the amniotic fluid cultures. Based on the experiments performed, chorionic villus cells are more sensitive to pronase, trypsin, and versene during subculture and have a higher DNA content per single cell and release more [¹²⁵I]-Beta-human chorionic gonadotropin into culture medium than those found in amniotic fluid cells. The practical applications of this study are discussed.     

Flow sorting of fetal erythroblasts using intracytoplasmic anti-fetal haemoglobin: Preliminary observations on maternal samples

Monoclonal antibody to fetal haemoglobin (a₂γy₂) has been proposed as a fetal-specific reagent. We developed an intracellular staining protocol that combines fluorescein isothiocyanate or phycoerythrin conjugated anti-γ with the DNA binding dye Hoechst 33342 to identify and flow sort fetal erythroblasts from maternal blood. Our preliminary observations on anti-γ-positive cells sorted from four different pregnant women are described here, using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with chromosome-specific probes to identify fetal cells. Our data demonstrate that far fewer candidate fetal cells are sorted with this protocol than by current cell surface staining methods that employ the monoclonal antibody CD71. This results in increased fetal cell sorting purities. With this protocol, standard FISH techniques require modification due to the rigorous fixation with 4 per cent paraformaldehyde. Our initial data indicate the promise of this approach.     

新疆百重7井区油田开发对地下水环境的影响分析

新疆百重7井区为新疆百口腺地下水的汇集径流区,是克拉玛依市生尖生产用水水源之一，在此处进行油田开发，使得保护该区地下水环境成为开发工程的重中之重，由新疆百重7井区油田开发对地下水环境的影响分析可知，正常状况下的油田开发对地下水的影响很小，一旦发生事故，则对地下水的影响很大，必须采取适当措施，保护该区丰富的地下水资源。     

复介电常数在水土污染监测中的应用研究

采用短路同轴线法测量了淀粉聚乙烯醇共混体样品,在含水率、离子浓度不同时的复介电常数,研究了频率、离子浓度、含水率与相对复介电常数的关系。结果表明,淀粉PVA复介电常数的实部对含水率很敏感,虚部在500~700MHz频段随含盐量升高呈对数增加,这为利用测量相对复介电常数进行水土系统离子污染监测,提供了可能和实验依据。     

生活污水对蝌蚪红细胞微核及核异常的诱导

利用青蛙蝌蚪红细胞微核试验,检测了城市生活污水处理厂各级处理工艺出水的诱变活性。在l6d生话污水处理的实验中,青蛙蝌蚪红细胞微核细胞率及核异常率2d后就呈现统计上的显著增加,并随暴露时间的延长而增高,第8天达到最大值。在不同浓度混合污水暴露实验中,蝌蚪红细胞微核细胞率和核异常率呈现明显的剂量依赖性增加。实验结果表明:城镇生活污水具有较强的诱变活性,一级和二级处理工艺出水也具有一定的诱变活性。现有污水处理工艺有待于进一步改进。

喷射浮选处理含油污水的研究

重点对喷射浮选处理含油污水进行了试验研究，结果表明浮选室内射流泵的没水深度对喷射选除油效果有较大的影响，并且只有在气泡量大并充满浮选室及表面相对平静的状态下，才儿得较好效果，为此，我们在浮选室内加入自制的增料，使兼并的气海重新得到分散，消耗了一部分动能，减缓了浮选室的扰动，使除在大提高，从而为研制新型高效的喷射浮选设备提供了一条新途径。     

Reduction of sera requirements in amniotic fluid cell culture

Reduction in serum requirement for culture of primary human amniotic fluid cells can be achieved by the addition of 10 growth-promoting factors to the nutrient medium. This supplemented medium preserves cell types normally found in amniotic fluid cell cultures supplemented with 20–30 per cent fetal bovine serum. The volume of amniotic fluid required to initiate culture can be as little as 1 ml. Amniotic fluid samples contaminated with red blood cells with no visible clot also grow well in the low serum medium. Cell-free amniotic fluid combined with equal parts of supplemented medium is useful in initiating cell culture.
