    Objective To explore the determination of trace glutathioneby resonance scattering spectral quenching method and improve thesensitivity of the method. Methods In the pH 3.0 phosphoric acid-boricacid-acetic acid buffer solution (BR buffer), $\mathrm{{Fe}}\left(\mathrm{{III}}\right)$ reacts with ${\mathrm{K}}_{4}\left\lbrack {\mathrm{{Fe}}{\left(\mathrm{{CN}}\right)}_{6}}\right\rbrack$ to form Prussian blue ion associates, and the system exhibits a strongresonance scattering effect at ${337}\mathrm{\;{nm}}$ . When glutathione isadded, the sulfhydryl group in glutathione molecules can reduce Fe(III)to Fe(II), causing quenching of the system and weakening the resonancescattering quenching effect. Results The linear regression equation forglutathione within the concentration range of 0.010 to ${2.0\mu }\mathrm{g}/\mathrm{{mL}}$ is ${\Delta l}= {299.77\rho }+{774.52}$ , with an ${r}^{2}$ of 0.9929 and a detection limit of ${0.0024\mu }\mathrm{g}/\mathrm{{mL}}$ .

    Objective Gray mold is an important disease in thestrawberry production process, which seriously affects its yield andquality. This article aims to study the resistance of gray moldpathogens in different strawberry production areas in Zhejiang Provinceto fludioxonil, in order to clarify the current use status and futuremedication strategies of this fungicide. Methods This article uses themycelial growth rate method to conduct indoor toxicity testing on 184strains isolated from strawberry gray mold disease samples in 7 regionsof Zhejiang Province, in order to determine their sensitivity tofludioxonitril and count the frequency of occurrence of resistant andsensitive strains.

    Objective To analyze the content of heavy metals in water and fish in Huayuan River. Methods Microwave digestion and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) were used to determine the heavy metal content of common freshwater fish such as Branchfish, Carassius elegans, Siniperca elegans and grass carp in Huayuan River. Results The content of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, As, Pb, Cd, Fe, Mn) in all sections of Huayuan River was lower than the standard limit of Class III water in GB 3838-2002, and the overall water quality was good. The cross section fish Cd and As in the upstream border town are slightly polluted. In the lower reaches of Huayuan River, Pb and As were slightly polluted, while Cd was seriously polluted. The single heavy metal hazard coefficient (THQ) and the composite heavy metal hazard coefficient (TTHQ) of fish in Huayuan River are both less than 1, which indicates that the enrichment of heavy metals in fish in Huayuan River will not cause harm to human consumption. Conclusion The results of this study reflect the influence of water pollution degree on heavy metal enrichment of fish in Huayuan River to some extent, and provide reference and theoretical support for the assessment of ecological security, fish resource diversity and food safety of Huayuan River in this region.
