Fermented food is one of the traditional human diet cultures. In early human history, it is mainly used in food preservation and taste increases. Western medicine has long been less help for some difficult chronic diseases. Some studies have shown that the gastrointestinal tract is directly related to immunity, nerves, metabolism, and the like. The microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract is closely related to health. Turning the unbalanced into balanced microbiota can often reverse the diseases and restore health, especially for chronic or degenerative diseases that are currently difficult to have drug effects, such as Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), depression, and cancer, etc. The discovery and research of probiotics have demonstrated their health effects by helping balance or formation of beneficial microbiota in gastrointestinal tract. Supply of probiotics has become a good way of health care in people's daily life. Fermented foods not only provide important nutrients, functional active ingredients, but also provide a group of active microorganisms that are beneficial to the body health, which can repair, balance or maintain the healthy microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract. Driven by the health care trend, fermented food has become an option for people to maintain health. Scientists have begun to interest in the feasibility of using single or combined natural herbal ferments for use in difficult diseases. Initial results have also shown significant effectiveness and they are expected to be an improvement or resolution of unresolved ill diseases in the future. In spite of fermented food or herbal medicine, it is necessary to construct a good quality of fermented food or herbal ferment. In the fermentation process, selected specific microbe or microbiota, and developed chemical and biological analysis methods to confirm the quality of the food after fermentation, and clarified the microbial population in the food after fermentation are necessary. The final products are confirmed the beneficial microbe or microbiota and show the evidence of clinical safety and efficacy. In order to widely promote the fermented foods in market in the future, the products should be cheaper than that of the current market products. One approach is researched to shorten the fermentative process which can increase inventory turnover

A symposium on the future of the International Latitude Service (I. L. S.) is to be held in Helsinki in July 1960. My report for the symposium consists of two parts. Part I, denoded (Mk I) was published [1] earlier in 1960 under the title “Latitude and Longitude, and the Secular Motion of the Pole”. Part II is the present paper, denoded (Mk II).

Second-epoch photographs have now been obtained for nearly 850 of the 1246 fields of the proper motion program with centers at declination -20° and northwards. For the sky at 0° and northward only 130 fields remain to be taken in the next year or two. The 270 southern fields with centers at -5° to -20° remain for the future.

Metaphase chromosomes from human and mouse cells in vitro are isolated by micrurgy, fixed, and placed on grids for electron microscopy. Interpretations of electron micrographs by current methods indicate the following structural features.Chromosomal spindle fibrils about 200Å thick form fascicles about 600Å thick, wrapped by dense spiraling fibrils (DSF) less than 100Å thick as they near the kinomere. Such a fascicle joins the future daughter kinomere of each metaphase chromatid with those of adjacent non-homologous chromatids to either side. Thus, four fascicles (SF, 1-4) attach to each metaphase kinomere (K). It is thought that fascicles extend from the kinomere poleward, fray out to let chromosomal fibrils act as traction fibrils against polar fibrils, then regroup to join the adjacent kinomere.

In his pioneering demonstration of the potential of freeze-etching in biological systems, Russell Steere assessed the future promise and limitations of the technique with remarkable foresight. Item 2 in his list of inherent difficulties as they then stood stated “The chemical nature of the objects seen in the replica cannot be determined”. This defined a major goal for practitioners of freeze-fracture which, for more than a decade, seemed unattainable. It was not until the introduction of the label-fracture-etch technique in the early 1970s that the mould was broken, and not until the following decade that the full scope of modern freeze-fracture cytochemistry took shape. The culmination of these developments in the 1990s now equips the researcher with a set of effective techniques for routine application in cell and membrane biology.Freeze-fracture cytochemical techniques are all designed to provide information on the chemical nature of structural components revealed by freeze-fracture, but differ in how this is achieved, in precisely what type of information is obtained, and in which types of specimen can be studied.
