Quantum computing of quantum chaos and imperfection effects.

We study numerically the imperfection effects in the quantum computing of the kicked rotator model in the regime of quantum chaos. It is shown that there are two types of physical characteristics: for one of them the quantum computation errors grow exponentially with the number of qubits in the computer, while for the other the growth is polynomial. A certain similarity between classical and quantum computing errors is also discussed.

Analysis of antigenic polypeptides of Dane particles and antibody response ability of HBV infected subjects to PreS1 polypeptides.

We demonstrated the constitutive polypeptides (PP) of Dane particles employing Western Blot and investigated the antibody response ability of HBV infected subjects to PreS1 PP in comparison with other serum markers from HBV infected individuals. The results indicated that 1) the major reason for discrepant results may be related to the detergents used in the sample solutions and the degree of denaturation the samples had undergone; 2) there are 12 bands in the PAGE-graph of Dane particles. By Western Blot it was confirmed that 5 PP (P24, P27, P36, P39, P42) are derived from S-open reading frame (S-ORF), P21 is associated with C-ORF, P24-25 possesses some epitopes of Pol protein, and P45 and P76 express similar epitopes to human IgG and IgM; and 3) the prevalence of anti-PreS1 PP was 17.24% in the group of healthy persons following latent HBV infection, much higher than that of HBV infected patients (1.21%). The above findings imply that antibody response ability of the host to PreS1 PP is attributing to the outcome of HBV infection. It may play an important role in the elimination of the virus.

Hepatitis D virus infection in liver tissues of patients with hepatitis B in China.

2,346 liver samples from 17 cities of China for intrahepatic hepatitis D antigen (HDAg) were studied by direct enzyme-labelled technique. HDAg was detected in 167 out of 1,764 samples of HBsAg positive individuals making a detection rate of 9.47%. Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection existed in all the examined districts with no significant difference in the HDAg detection rate. It was found that the intrahepatic HDAg detection rate was related to the pathologic type of the liver disease. The HDAg detection rate in chronic liver diseases and severe hepatitis was higher than in other liver diseases. It suggests that HDV infection is associated with the progression and chronicity of the liver disease. Studies on the relationship between HDV infection and HBV replication showed that HBV replication might be suppressed by HDV infection. Both HDV and HBV, however, could replicate in the same hepatocyte simultaneously.

A study on hepatitis D virus infection in liver tissues of patients with hepatitis B in China.

2346 liver samples from 17 areas in China were investigated for intrahepatic hepatitis D antigen (HDAg) by direct enzyme-labelled technique. HDAg was detected in 167 out of 1764 samples of HBsAg positive individuals with the detection rate of 9.47%. Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection existed in all the examined areas without any significant difference regarding HDAg detection rate. A relationship of intrahepatic HDAg to the pathologic type of the liver disease was observed. The HDAg detection rate in chronic liver diseases and severe hepatitis was higher than in other liver diseases. It suggested that HDV infection was associated with the progression and chronicity of the liver disease. Studies on the relationship between HDV infection and HBV replication showed that HBV replication might be suppressed by HDV infection. Both HDV and HBV, however, could replicate in the same hepatocyte simultaneously.
