广东地区汉族人群 13个 STR基因座的频率调查

目的调查广东地区汉族无关个体的 13个 STR基因座（ D3S1358、 vWA、 FGA、 D8S1179、 D21S11、 D18S51、 D5S818、 D13S317、 D7S820、 D1 6S539、 TH01、 TPOX、 CSF1PO）多态性,研究其在法医学检验中的应用价值。方法用 AmpFlSTR Profiler Plus及 Cofiler二个荧光标记系统对新鲜血样进行 13个基因座的复合扩增,用 ABI 377-96全自动测序仪对扩增产物进行检测,用 GenoTyper软件进行基因分型。结果 13个基因座 PIC >0.5,DP >0.76,家系调查符合孟德尔遗传规律。结论含有 13个 STR基因座的二个荧光标记复合扩增系统可满足法医物证学的个体识别及亲权鉴定的需要。     

Forensic application of reverse dot blot with biotin incorporation

A rapid and accurate reverse dot blot technique was successfully established. It could distinguish the 6 alleles of 0101, 0102, 0103, 0201, 0301 and 0401 of HLA-DQA locus. Alleles and genotype frequencies for HLA-DQA locus were determined in 200 unrelated individuals of northern Han population. The discrimination power (DP) was 0.928, heterozygocity (H) 0.75. By direct biotin incorperation, 1 ng genome DNA could be detected successfully. This method can be used for paternity test and individual identification in forensic science practice.     

海洛因成瘾者神经、内分泌及免疫系统超微病理变化研究

目的 研究海洛因成瘾者中枢神经、内分泌、免疫及生殖系统的超微结构变化。方法 应用透射电镜技术对 4例海洛因成瘾者中枢神经系统、内分泌系统、免疫系统以及生殖系统进行了观察。结果 神经系统表现为线粒体肿胀、嵴断裂、空泡变、内质网扩张、神经纤维数量减少、细胞器减少;免疫系统表现为淋巴细胞数量减少,胞浆成分减少,死亡细胞增多;内分泌系统表现为线粒体扩张,局部嵴断裂,内质网扩张;生殖系统表现为男性生精细胞减少,细胞器减少。女性未见卵泡结构。结论 海洛因滥用者的亚细胞超微结构呈急、慢性缺氧性变性、坏死改变。     

Hair testing for drugs of abuse: evaluation of external cocaine contamination and risk of false positives.

In some laboratories hair testing may be the main method for the evaluation of individual's drug history, however, compelling evidence supports the possibility that the presence of a small amount of drug in hair can derive from external contamination. The aim of the present study is to verify if a single external contamination with a small amount of cocaine will last sufficiently long to make a contaminated subject indistinguishable from active users, and if normal washing practices together with the decontamination procedures are sufficient to completely remove the external contamination. The results obtained using the decontamination methods suggested in literature demonstrate that significant concentrations of cocaine (>1 ng/mg) and moderate quantities of benzoylecgonine (generally <0.5 ng/mg) are still detectable up to 10 weeks after contamination. These results question the reliability of hair testing. In fact, even using the most sophisticated decontamination procedures it is not possible to distinguish a drug-contaminated subject from an active user. Thus, while a negative result excludes both chronic use and "contact" with drugs, a positive result cannot and must not be interpreted as a sure sign of drug addiction, but should be further confirmed by urine analysis.
