Penicillin is a kind ofβ-lactam drug which has been applied in the clinical treatment firstly in the world, and it has still been widely used at present. The synthesis and regulation mechanism of Penicillium chrysogenum, which is used to produce penicillin, has been studied quite maturely, but its proteomics research started relatively late and fewer reports were published. This paper reviews the synthesis and application of penicillin, transformation of Penicillium chrysogenum, and the research progress of its proteomics. On this basis, the study highlights the advantages of proteomics in the research of protein expression.
Forced oscillation technique (FOT) is an active method to test pulmonary function, which can derive the mechanical characteristics of the respiratory system with liner system identification theory by pushing in an oscillation air signal and measuring the changes of output pressure and flow. A pulmonary function determination system was developed based on the FOT in this paper. Several critical technologies of this determination system were analyzed, including the selection criteria of oscillation air generator, pressure and flow sensor, the signal design of oscillation air generator, and the synchronous sampling of pressure and flow data. A software program on LabVIEW platform was set up to control the determination system and get the measuring data. The performance of sensors and oscillation air generator was verified. According to the frequency response curve of the pressure, the amplitude of driving signal to the oscillation air generator was corrected at the frequency range between 4~40 Hz. A simulation experiment was carried out to measure the respiratory impedance of the active model lung ASL5000 and the results were close to the setting values of the model lung. The experiment testified that the pulmonary function determination system based on FOT had performance good enough to provide a tool for the in-depth research of the mechanical properties of the respiratory system.
