[a review of the studies on fungi and mycotoxins in foodstuffs in beijing during 1976-1986]. | fungi and mycotoxins contaminating foods in beijing during 1976-1986 were studied. a total of more than 5,000 food samples classified into 104 kinds of 16 types were examined of analysed. the results showed that the natural occurrence of aflatoxin b1 in foods in beijing was not serious, but from the results of analysis 59 cases of food poisoning and food seriously contaminated with moulds, the hazards of fungal contamination of food should receive serious consideration. in order to improve food ... | 1991 | 1903690 |
[a study on cadmium content in foods of six provinces and cities]. | contents of cadmium in six kinds of foods were monitored in 626 specimens from beijing, shanghai, jiangsu, sichuan, jilin and guangdong in 1992, with proportions of 95% for rice, 87.8% vegetables, and 100% wheat flour, meat, eggs fish and dairy products, respectively, up to the national hygienic standards. the average weekly intake of cadmium from foods of residents in six monitored areas was lower than that of the provisional allowable intake set by who. | 1994 | 8082461 |

bgi-ris: an integrated information resource and comparative analysis workbench for rice genomics. | rice is a major food staple for the world's population and serves as a model species in cereal genome research. the beijing genomics institute (bgi) has long been devoting itself to sequencing, information analysis and biological research of the rice and other crop genomes. in order to facilitate the application of the rice genomic information and to provide a foundation for functional and evolutionary studies of other important cereal crops, we implemented our rice information system (bgi-ris), ... | 2004 | 14681438 |
impacts of sewage irrigation on heavy metal distribution and contamination in beijing, china. | a potential hazard to beijing was revealed due to the accumulation trend of heavy metals in agricultural soils with sewage irrigation, which results in metal contamination and human exposure risk. samples including soils and plants were collected to assess the impacts of sewage irrigation on the irrigated farming area of beijing. concentrations of the five elements cd, cr, cu, zn, and pb were determined in samples to calculate the accumulation factor and to establish a basis for environmental pr ... | 2005 | 15979146 |
a comprehensive crop genome research project: the superhybrid rice genome project in china. | in may 2000, the beijing institute of genomics formally announced the launch of a comprehensive crop genome research project on rice genomics, the chinese superhybrid rice genome project. srgp is not simply a sequencing project targeted to a single rice (oryza sativa l.) genome, but a full-swing research effort with an ultimate goal of providing inclusive basic genomic information and molecular tools not only to understand biology of the rice, both as an important crop species and a model organi ... | 2007 | 17331896 |
selenium level in the environment and the population of zhoukoudian area, beijing, china. | the objective of this study was to detect the selenium level in the environment and the population of zhoukoudian area, beijing, and to discuss the influence of various factors on serum selenium level. the soil, drinking water, and foodstuff samples and venous blood samples of 401 individuals were obtained to determine the selenium level by gas chromatograph equipped with a (63)ni electron capture detector (ecd). the selenium level was 0.210+/-0.013 microg/g in soil, 0.017 microg/l+/-0.002 in dr ... | 2007 | 17509665 |
bgi-ris v2. | rice serves as both a staple for over half of the world's population and a model organism for plants of the grass family. beijing genomics institute (bgi) has long been engaged in rice genomic research: sequencing, assembly, information analysis and integration. such intensive research results in public releases and biological applications. in order to facilitate obtaining and operating on the rice genomic data, as well as to provide a genomic groundwork for comparative, functional or evolutiona ... | 2007 | 18287698 |
in vitro adsorption revealing an apparent strong interaction between endophyte pantoea agglomerans ys19 and host rice. | pantoea (formerly enterobacter) agglomerans ys19 is a dominant diazotrophic endophyte isolated from rice (oryza sativa cv. yuefu) grown in a temperate-climate region in west beijing, china. in vitro adsorption and invasion of ys19 on host plant root were studied in this research. adsorption of ys19 on rice seedling roots closely resembled the langmuir adsorption and showed a higher adsorption quantity than the control strains paenibacillus polymyxa wy110 (a rhizospheric bacterium from the same r ... | 2008 | 18781359 |
