All the informations concerning the clinical pictures and epidemiological points of view of these 59 patients were analysed. The chief cutaneous lesions were composed of nodules, ulcers or infiltrated plaques in linear arrangement on the exposed areas especially arms, legs or face. Thirty eight cases were male and 21 female. It affected peoples of the age between 4 to 70 years old, and their occupations were mainly outside workers such as agriculturist, worker, etc. Most of the affected people lived in the suburban areas of Taipei city such as Taoyuan and Taipei county. Serological tests such as precipitation, complement fixation and hemagglutination tests were performed in 12 cases, yet no reliable results were got.","PeriodicalId":76873,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology","volume":"11 2","pages":"62-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11784999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The high sensitivity of method has the advantages to save antiserum and incubation period. Some factors such as concentration of antigen and antiserum, incubation temperature, buffer systems, and position of capillary tube all might affect the test accuracy. If all those affecting factors were concerned, the toxin would probably be standardized. The most accessible quantitative estimation was accomplished by means of (1) plotting a precipitation curve from the different concentrations of standardized staphylococcal enterotoxin B; (2) the sample to be test was diluted by serial two-fold method with the same buffer system; (3) select suitable 3--5 dilutions to perform capillary tube diffusion test, taking the values of precipitation bands as abcissa and sample dilutions as longitudinal axis, rendered the precipitation curve of sample exquisitely paralled to that of the standard; (4) calibrate the figure values of sample exactly on the precipitation curve, and reading the toxin content of specimen to be tested from standard curve.","PeriodicalId":76873,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology","volume":"11 2","pages":"39-44"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11323757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was no significant statistical difference between the male and female. Incidence of Enterobius among the orphanages was 83.33% (25/30) in Po-Ai, Fu-Ann 82.61% (38/46), Ta-Tung 82.43% (61/74), Hau-Sen 77.25% (34/44), Chung-I 75.00% (51/68), Jen-Ai 72.97% (23/37), Ti-Hwei 72.50% (29/40) and Sen-Tao 63.93% (78/122). There were no significant statistical differences among the orphanages except the differences between Sen-Tao and Ta-Tung; Sen-Tao and Fu-Ann, Sen-Tao and Po-Ai. Incidence of Enterobius according to age-groups: The highest rate was 79.34% (242/305) in primary school group followed by 70.00% (21/30) in kindergarten group, 64.40% (73/114) in Junior high school and the lowest was 63.64% (7/11) in nursery group. There was a significant statistical difference between primary school group and junior school group. (Table 3) The larger the space for the children's free activity was the lower the incidence of Enterobius, and the smaller space resulted in the higher incidence. The distribution of Enterobius ova in the different body parts of the 461 orphans was 80.91% (373/461); The highest 74.40% (343/461) at perianal area and the lowest 11.93% (55/461) at ears. The incidence of Enterobius on the various objects in the orphanages was found as the following: 85.71% (6/7) on bed pans, 83.67% (333/398) on linens, 78.46% (51/65) on w. c. appartus, 77.39% (89/115) on specimens of dust, 13.33% (1/15) on stairrails 8.04% (32/39) on bedposts, 7.33% (11/150) on closets, 4.24% (5/118) on desks and 3.64% (2/55) on toys.","PeriodicalId":76873,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology","volume":"11 1","pages":"30-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11785700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

EBV infectivity to monkey T and B cells were tested by detection of EBV early antigens in infected cells with the indirect immunofluorescent antibody technique. Treatments of monkey unfractionated lymphocytes with DEAE-Dextran (160 microgram/ml) for 1 hr, ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA, 0.5%) for 10 min, 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR, 12.5 microgram/ml) for 23 hr and 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine (IUdR, 12.5 microgram/ml) for 20 hr raised the susceptibility of the cells to EBV. However, trypsin treatment (0.05, 0.1 and 0.2%) at 37 degrees C for 5 min did not affect cell susceptibility to EBV. Unfractionated lymphocytes, T cells which were purified by rosette formation with sheep red blood cells, and a B cell-rich population obtained by the treatment of lymphocytes with antithymoycte serum were treated with the chemicals described above. The results showed that although the possibility of T cell susceptibility to EBV could not be ruled out because of 1 to 2.5% of B cell contamination in purified T cells, the main target cells in Taiwan monkey leukocytes for EBV infection were B cells.","PeriodicalId":76873,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology","volume":"10 4","pages":"96-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11426357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
