口蹄疫病毒3B基因的高效表达及其表达产物的反应活性

通过PCR技术获得口蹄疫病毒非结构蛋白3B基因,将其克隆至质粒pET-32a( )和高效可溶性表达质粒pEM中,经PCR筛选,获得阳性重组子pET-3B和pEM-3B,将它们转化大肠杆菌BL21中进行诱导表达,SDS-PAGE及Western-blot检测结果证明,表达的3B融合蛋白能与FMDV感染动物血清发生特异性反应。蛋白可溶性分析表明,EM-3B融合蛋白绝大部分以可溶形式表达。以此可溶性融合蛋白EM-3B为抗原建立了可区分FMD免疫动物和感染动物的EM-3B-DIVA-ELISA方法,经检测,其特异性为95.0%,敏感性为97.5%,与2个国产试剂盒的符合率分别为96.25%和98.75%。

The Application of Voltammetric Analysis of Δ9‐THC for the Reduction of False Positive Results in the Analysis of Suspected Marijuana Plant Matter

The development of methodologies using inexpensive, fast, and reliable instrumention is desirable in illicit drug analysis. The purpose of this study was based on cyclic voltammetry technique to differentiate the electrochemical behavior of ?⁹‐THC, the psychoactive substance in marijuana, and five different extract plants to yield false positive results after analysis protocol for cannabinoids using thin‐layer chromatography and Fast Blue B salt. After applying a deposition potential of ?0.5 V in a glassy carbon working electrode, the results indicated an anodic peak current at 0.0 V versus Ag/AgCl after addition of ?⁹‐THC solution in the electrochemical cell, and limits of detection and quantification were 1.0 ng mL^?1 and 3.5 ng mL^?1, respectively. Other interfering plants showed distinct amperometric responses. This methodology was useful to detect ?⁹‐THC even in the presence of the Fast Blue B salt, which avoided false positive results for all the studied extract plants.     

Evaluation of Postmortem Cerebrospinal Fluid S100B Protein and Serotonin Levels: Comparison of Suicidal Versus Nonsuicidal Deaths in Konya,Turkey

Although suicide is a preventable public health problem, objective assays for suicide risk are limited. In this study, it was aimed to determine levels of S100B protein and serotonin as a marker for risk of suicide. S100B protein and serotonin levels were investigated with ELISA method in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in medicolegal autopsy cases, including those of suicide cases (n = 32) and nonsuicide cases (n = 56). The CSF S100B levels were higher (9.3 ± 2.9 ng/mL vs. 5.4 ± 2.0 ng/mL), and serotonin levels were lower (10.4 ± 4.9 ng/mL vs. 19.0 ± 5.7 ng/mL) in suicide group than nonsuicide group (p < 0.05). There was no correlation between S100B protein and serotonin levels with gender, age groups, postmortem interval, and cause of death. It is concluded that both S100B protein and serotonin in CSF may be useful for determination of suicide risk.     

A case of mistaken identity: The wrongful classification of Islamic marriage contracts as premarital agreements in New York

New York precedent has mischaracterized Islamic marriage contracts, or nikah agreements, as premarital agreements. Nikah agreements are not premarital agreements; they are contracts. This mischaracterization has subjected nikah agreements to the acknowledgement requirement codified in N.Y. DRL § 236(B)(3) which has incorrectly been used to strike down valid contracts which Islamic litigants rely on. To prevent the effects of this mischaracterization, this Note suggests to New York appellate courts that a recharacterization of these agreements as contracts would prevent further confusion amongst the lower courts and allow for clearer, more uniform decisions.

GABA Receptors,Alcohol Dependence and Criminal Behavior

The aim of this study was to analyze the connection between alcohol dependence and criminal behavior by an integrated genetic–environmental approach. The research, structured as a case–control study, examined 186 alcohol‐dependent males; group 1 (N = 47 convicted subjects) was compared with group 2 (N = 139 no previous criminal records). Genetic results were innovative, highlighting differences in genotype distribution (p = 0.0067) in group 1 for single‐nucleotide polymorphism rs 3780428, located in the intronic region of subunit 2 of the GABA B receptor gene (GABBR2). Some environmental factors (e.g., grade repetition) were associated with criminal behavior; others (e.g., attendance at Alcoholics Anonymous) were inversely related to convictions. The concomitant presence of the genetic and environmental factors found to be associated with the condition of alcohol‐dependent inmate showed a 4‐fold increase in the risk of antisocial behavior. The results need to be replicated on a larger population to develop new preventive and therapeutic proposals.     

青壮年猝死综合征SCN2B、SCN4B基因检测

目的寻找SCN2B、SCN4B基因的变异位点,探讨其与青壮年不明原因夜间睡眠中猝死(SMDS)的关系。方法提取SMDS病例组及健康对照组的基因组DNA,采用聚合酶链式反应(PCR)方法扩增SCN2B、SCN4B基因编码区外显子、外显子-内含子交界区以及3'侧翼区序列,直接行DNA测序以明确遗传变异类型。结果在病例组中共检测到4个变异位点,c.237+27AG,c.*38CT,c.174CT(p.C58C)和c.*7CT。结论本研究首次对中国人SMDS病例进行了SCN2B、SCN4B基因的检测,上述基因是否为中国人SMDS的易感基因尚有待进一步研究证实。     

Der Haftrücklass im Bauträgervertrag

Das BMJ hat vor Kurzem den Begutachtungsentwurf für eine Novelle zum Bautr?gervertragsgesetz vorgelegt. Ein zentrales Regelungsanliegen des Entwurfs ist die Einführung eines zwingenden Haftrücklasses zur Sicherung allf?lliger Gew?hrleistungs- und Schadenersatzansprüche des Erwerbers auf Grund mangelhafter Leistung des Bautr?gers. Der vorliegende Beitrag setzt sich mit diesem Vorschlag kritisch auseinander.     

我国海事请求保全与美国Rule B Attachment制度之比较

我国海事请求保全制度与美国Rule B Attachment制度,作为海商法领域所特有的强制性财产保全措施,皆是本国海事诉讼中的一项重要而特有的制度,它是保证海事请求权人所受损害得到赔偿的最有效的法律手段之一。鉴于中美两国在国际航运界的显著地位,这两项制度的特殊性及重要性不言而喻,本文从比较法的层面探讨这两者之间的异同,以便更好的理解和把握。
