Most studies of metals exposure focus on the heavy metals and others commonly found in various compartments of the environment and for which there is clear evidence of adverse health impacts in occupational and community studies.There are many other metals(the transition metals in particular)in common use in electronics,semiconductor and defence industries and which are naturally present in the environment and can also be concentrated via industrial processes.We have limited information in terms of non occupational human exposure to these metals.As part of a study of maternal exposure to persistent toxic substances we were able to analyse samples of blood,urine and drinking water for these transition and rare metals using ICP-MS.The metals investigated were antimony(Sb),beryllium(Be),bismuth(Bi),cesium(Cs),gallium(Ga),rubidium(Rb),silver(Ag),strontium(Sr),thallium(Tl),thorium(Th)and vanadium(V).One hundred and seventy two pregnant women provided samples of whole blood and a first void urine sample just before the birth of their baby.They also provided a drinking water sample and completed a questionnaire on factors that may influence exposure.

乳铁蛋白（Lactoferrin，LF）是主要存在于哺乳动物乳汁中的一种铁结合糖蛋白，具有多种生物学功能，已成为在抗病毒、抗肿瘤和抗炎等领域备受瞩目的潜在药物开发对象。目前，用于药物研究的LF主要来源于从哺乳动物乳汁中提取的天然LF和利用基因重组技术得到的重组LF，都需要经过纯化、浓缩等加工过程，不仅产量低，而且工艺复杂、成本高，使药物的开发和大规模生产都受到一定限制。基于家蚕在我国资源丰富，易饲
抗生素的滥用引发了一系列的环境、健康隐患,尤其是耐药细菌的出现,严重威胁着人类的健康,寻找更为高效的新型抗生素成为迫在眉睫的问题。抗菌肽(Antimicrobial peptide,AMP)由于安全性高、热稳定性好、抗菌谱广、不易产生耐药性且对高等动物细胞无毒害作用等特点吸引了广泛关注。抗菌肽是一类短肽,含有30-60个氨基酸,当前发现的天然抗菌肽超过了2600条,在植物、细菌、昆虫、动物中均有发
