Cryptosporidium and Giardia are two typical species of pathogenic protozoans that seriously endanger water *** works indicated that detection of Cryptosporidium and Giardia with modified United states environmental Protection Agency(USEPA)method-1623 using a membrane filtration-elution for sample concentration attained better recovery and lower cost compared to the USEPA *** improvements of membrane filtration-elution step as well as immunomagnetic separation(IMS)steps were investigated and an optimized method for detection of Cryptosporidium and Giardia in wastewater reclamation system was recommended in this *** experimental results show that an overnight soak of the membrane after scraping and vortex agitation before elution could enhance and stabilize the *** turbidity to 4 NTU by adding kaolin clay before filtration could effectively improve the recovery of low-turbidity *** the concentrate after centrifugation and twice acid dissociation both reduced the impact of water quality to protozoan *** in different water samples were determined by this optimized method,and the recovery of Cryptosporidium and Giardia were above 70% and 80%respectively,much higher than the acceptance of method-1623.

Since the complexity and structural diversity of man-made compounds are considered, quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs)-based fast screening approaches are urgently needed for the assessment of the potential risk of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). The artificial neural net-works (ANN) are capable of recognizing highly nonlinear relationships, so it will have a bright applica-tion prospect in building high-quality QSAR models. As a popular supervised training algorithm in ANN, back-propagation (BP) converges slowly and immerses in vibration frequently. In this paper, a research strategy that BP neural network was improved by conjugate gradient (CG) algorithm with a variable selection method based on genetic algorithm was applied to investigate the QSAR of EDCs. This re-sulted in a robust and highly predictive ANN model with R2 of 0.845 for the training set, q2pred of 0.81 and root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 0.688 for the test set. The result shows that our method can provide a feasible and practical tool for the rapid screening of the estrogen activity of organic compounds.

Estrogen compounds are suspected of disrupting endocrine functions by mimicking natural hormones, and such compounds may pose a serious threat to the health of humans and wildlife. Close attention has been paid to the prediction and molecular mechanisms of estrogen activity for estrogen compounds. In this article, estrogen receptor α subtype (ERα)–based comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (COMSIA) was performed on 44 estrogen compounds with structural diversity to find out the structural relationship with the activity and to predict the activity. The model with the significant correlation and the best predictive power (R2 = 0.965, Q2LOO = 0.599, R2pred = 0.825) was achieved. The COMSIA and docking results revealed the structural features for estrogen activity and key amino acid residues in binding pocket, and provided an insight into the interaction between the ligands and these amino acid residues.
