Crossbreeding between Epinephelas coioides ( ♀ ) and Epinephelus lanceolatus (♂) was conducted by artificial insemination. Fertilized eggs were col- lected at 0, 30, 90 s, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...Crossbreeding between Epinephelas coioides ( ♀ ) and Epinephelus lanceolatus (♂) was conducted by artificial insemination. Fertilized eggs were col- lected at 0, 30, 90 s, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 min post-insemination respectively, which were fixed by Smith's solution, embedded by paraffins and stained by H.E. According to the characteristics of Epinephelus coioides eggs, tissue section method was modified. The results showed that the sperms of Epinephelus lanceolatus rapidly entered the eggs of Epinephelus coioides at 30 s - 1 rain post-insemination. Observation results of tissue sections showed that mature eggs of Epinephelus coioides remained at metaphase of secondary maturation division. The eggs were activated after sperm penetration into the egg. With the develop- ment of secondary maturation division, at 2 rain post-insemination, eggs reached the metaphase of secondary maturation division ; at 3 - 6 rain post-insemination, sperm asters appeared; at 5 min post-insemination, eggs extruded secondary polar body; at 7 -15 rain post-insemination, male pronucleus and female pronucleus moved closer to each other and fused finally, forming a clear junction line; subsequently, zygote nucleus formed and karyotheca became faint; at 15 min pest-insem- ination, first karvokinetic division was develoued.展开更多

This article is a proof-of-principle report of a novel DMS–MS/MS method to separate and simultaneously quantify epimers, taking PGF2α and its 8-epimer, 8-iso-PGF2α, as an example. Good accuracy and precision were achieved in the range of 10–500 ng/m L with a run time of only 1.5 min. Isopropanol as organic modifier facilitated a good combination of sensitivity and separation. The method is the first example of the quantitation of epimers without chromatographic separation.展开更多
