[Methods]The hemostatic activity of the extracts was evaluated by the changes of the bleeding time( BT),coagulation time( CT) and coagulation parameters including prothrombin time( PT),activated partial thromboplastin time( APTT) and thrombin time( TT) in mice or rats. The anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts was evaluated by carrageenan-induced foot edema,arachidonic acidinduced ear edema and xylene-induced ear edema models in rats. The content of gallic acid in ethanol extracts of R. rotundifolia and Shuijia Zhixue capsule was studied by HPLC to explore the correlation between gallic acid and anti-inflammatory activity. [Results]In hemostasis experiment,the ethanol extracts of R. rotundifolia and Shuijia Zhixue capsules showed significant shortening effects on BT,CT,PT and TT( P <0. 01-0. 05). The water extracts of R. rotundifolia and Shuijia Zhixue capsules had significant shortening effects on CT,PT and TT( P <0. 05),while the water extracts of R. rotundifolia had no hemostasis effect. In anti-inflammatory experiment in vivo,the two ethanol extracts showed significant shortening effects on CT,PT and TT and in the induction test of carrageenan,arachidonic acid and xylene,the inhibitory effects were significant( P < 0. 01-0. 05). The water extract from Shuijia Zhixue capsules had significant inhibitory effects on carrageenan-induced foot edema in rats( P < 0. 05),but the anti-inflammatory effects of water extract from R. rotundifolia were not significant. The content of gallic acid in R. rotundifolia and Shuijia Zhixue capsules were( 0. 318 62 ± 0. 009 8) and( 6. 295 2 ± 0. 162 6) mg/g,respectively.Among them,the content of gallic acid in Shuijia Zhixue capsule was significantly correlated with the anti-inflammatory activity of carrageenaninduced foot edema model. [Conclusions] Ethanol extract of R. rotundifolia and Shuijia Zhixue capsules has strong hemostatic and anti-inflammatory activities,and can be used in the treatment of traditional diseases such as bleeding and inflammation.展开更多

[Methods] O. japonicas collected in Lingxing Town and Huayuan Town of Sichuan Province was divided into three groups: blank control group,paclobutrazol group and biofertilizer group. Root tuber of O. japonicas was obtained,and the enzyme was killed by the microwave,and then it was dried in 60℃. The content of flavonoids in root tuber of O. japonicus was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Then,SPSS19. 0 was used to analyze the results. [Results]The average contents of flavonoids in different treatments were as follows: 0. 184%-0. 198% in control group; 0. 283%-0. 330% in the paclobutrazol group; 0. 404%-0. 428% in the biofertilizer group. Biological bacterial fertilizer had a significant role in promoting the synthetic accumulation of homoisoflavonoids in O. japonicus( P <0. 001**). [Conclusions]The application of biological fertilizer can not only significantly improve the content of homoisoflavonoids in root ruber of O. japonicus,but also significantly optimize the micro ecological environment of soil. Therefore,biofertilizer should be widely used to gradually replace paclobutrazol in the main production areas of O. japonicas.展开更多

[Results]The content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids in the root tubers of Sichuan O. japonicus1 was higher than that of traditional O. japonicas; the content of aqueous extract in the root tubers of Sichuan O. japonicus 1 was higher than that in the leaves of Sichuan O. japonicus 1; the content of total flavonoids in leaves of Sichuan O. japonicus 1 was higher than that in the root tubers; the content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids in Sichuan O. japonicus 1 in the second year was higher than that in the first year.[Conclusions]The quality of new cultivar of Sichuan O. japonicas 1 was significantly higher than the traditional O. japonicus. Nowadays,the main part of drug use in O. japonicas is root,but as to the content of total flavonoids,fibrous roots and leaves are more dominant,it is feasible to develop and utilize the resources of flavonoids in the fibrous roots and leaves. The content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids from the second year O. japonicus was higher than that in the first year O. japonicus,but its increased amount did not meet the requirements of economic benefits.展开更多

The temperature distribution and the macrosegregation together with the eutectic lamellar spacing during solidification were measured under different magnetic fields. The results indicate that the compositions in the top and bottom portions of the sample are nearly the same and the segregation phenomenon is basically eliminated by SMF at an exciting current of 125 A. The morphology of the primary phase transforms from coarse dendrite to rosette or ellipsoidal equiaxed crystal and the spacing of the eutectic lamellar increases from 1.6 to 3.9 μm when the exciting current increases from 0 to 125 A. Moreover, if the exciting current is high enough, the forced fluid flow caused by SMF will enhance the process of transition from lamellar eutectic structure to anomalous rod-like one.展开更多

[Methods] According to Volume I of 2015 Chinese Pharmacopoeia,and with reference to literature methods,taking water as extraction solvent,hot dip method was used to determine the content of aqueous extract; taking ethanol as extraction solvent,the content of total flavonoids was determined using hot dip method,Ultraviolet-Visible Spectrophotometry. [Results]The content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids in the root tubers of Sichuan O. japonicus1 was higher than that of traditional O. japonicas; the content of aqueous extract in the root tubers of Sichuan O. japonicus 1 was higher than that in the leaves of Sichuan O. japonicus 1; the content of total flavonoids in leaves of Sichuan O. japonicus 1 was higher than that in the root tubers; the content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids in Sichuan O. japonicus 1 in the second year was higher than that in the first year.[Conclusions]The quality of new cultivar of Sichuan O. japonicas 1 was significantly higher than the traditional O. japonicus. Nowadays,the main part of drug use in O. japonicas is root,but as to the content of total flavonoids,fibrous roots and leaves are more dominant,it is feasible to develop and utilize the resources of flavonoids in the fibrous roots and leaves. The content of aqueous extract and total flavonoids from the second year O. japonicus was higher than that in the first year O. japonicus,but its increased amount did not meet the requirements of economic benefits.

文摘Improving the danger prediction during driving can significantly reduce the risk of accidents.However,previous danger prediction training systems had not been sufficiently effective owing to the lack of realism.In this study,we propose an immersive training system for danger prediction training using virtual reality(VR)technology.This system provides drivers with a highly realistic training environment with 360°videos viewed with VR goggles.Users can practice various dangerous scenarios in an environment that simulates a real-driving situation.In addition,we introduced a system to select dangerous spots with a controller and implement training schemes on a voluntary basis.This setup enables them to train in a highly interactive state.In addition,we proposed a method to express multiple indices numerically so that users can understand the training effect.We tested the effect of the system on the danger prediction abilities of various users with two experiments by using this approach.These results show that our system was more effective in improving the driver’s danger prediction ability than previous systems.

文摘The effect of spiral magnetic field (SMF) on the solidification process of Sn-20 wt.%Pb hypoeutectic alloy was studied in this work. The temperature distribution and the macrosegregation together with the eutectic lamellar spacing during solidification were measured under different magnetic fields. The results indicate that the compositions in the top and bottom portions of the sample are nearly the same and the segregation phenomenon is basically eliminated by SMF at an exciting current of 125 A. The morphology of the primary phase transforms from coarse dendrite to rosette or ellipsoidal equiaxed crystal and the spacing of the eutectic lamellar increases from 1.6 to 3.9 μm when the exciting current increases from 0 to 125 A. Moreover, if the exciting current is high enough, the forced fluid flow caused by SMF will enhance the process of transition from lamellar eutectic structure to anomalous rod-like one.

文摘A Rubik’s cube as a reconfigurable microfluidic system is presented in this work.Composed of physically interlocking microfluidic blocks,the microfluidic cube enables the on-site design and configuration of custom microfluidics by twisting the faces of the cube.The reconfiguration of the microfluidics could be done by solving an ordinary Rubik’s cube with the help of Rubik’s cube algorithms and computer programs.An O-ring-aided strategy is used to enable self-sealing and the automatic alignment of the microfluidic cube blocks.Owing to the interlocking mechanics of cube blocks,the proposed microfluidic cube exhibits good reconfigurability and robustness in versatile applications and proves to be a promising candidate for the rapid deployment of microfluidic systems in resource-limited settings.
