This study assessed the performance of CWs in treating the aquaculture wastewater, examined the water quality condition of aquaculture ponds and the growth and the survival rate of ＂target＂ species （Ictalurus punctatus and Megalobrama amblycephala）. The results showed that CWs were effective on reducing the concentrations of 5-day biochemical oxygen demand （BOD5, at 70.5%）, total suspended solids （TSS, at 81.9%）, chlorophyll a （Chl-a, at 91.9%）, ammonium （NH4^＋, at 61.5%） and nitrate nitrogen （NOa-N, at 68.0%）. Effect of CWs on phosphate （PO43 -P） removal was relatively lower （at 20.0%）. The concentrations of BODs, TSS, Chl-a, NH4^＋ and TN, TP in the recirculating culture pond were significantly lower than that in the control pond（ p〈0.05 ）. CWs could help to increase total yield, survival rate of the ＂target＂ species and significantly decrease feed conversion ratio （ p〈0.05 ）.展开更多

This heterostructured CuO@TiO2 NWs film demonstrates the favorable physical properties in the photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) water splitting, such as the hierarchical surface, the extended optical absorption range, and the rapid interface charge transfer kinetics. Under the illumination of the simulated solar light, the pristine TiO2 NWs film only attains a photocurrent density of 0.12 mA/cm2 at 1.0 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Significantly, the CuO@TiO2 NWs film can yield a dramatically increased photocurrent density of 0.56 mA/cm2 at the same applied voltage. Furthermore, amperometric I?t tests of the CuO@TiO2 NWs film reveal satisfactory stability. All the above characteristics of this heterostructured CuO@TiO2 NWs film indicate its great potential in the water splitting applications with solar visible light.展开更多

But these data must be interpreted with much caution, because of some rapid progression or malignant transformation during the postoperative follow-up. We report herein a rare case of a cerebellar PXA manifested as a benign lesion at first time in a 39 year-old woman, but with malignant transformation two years later. In this paper, we discuss the clinical signs, radiological findings and the therapeutic data on the subject according to literature review.展开更多
