New Method for 3D Transient Eddy Current Field Calculation and Its Application in Magneto-Acoustic Tomography

A new method of 3D transient eddy current field calculation is proposed. The Maxwell equations with time component elimination （METCE） are derived under the assumption of magnetic quasi static approximation, especially for the sample of low conductivity. Based on METCE, we deduce a more efficient reconstruction algorithm of a 3D transient eddy current field. The computational burden is greatly reduced through the new algorithm, and the computational efficiency is improved. This new algorithm decompounds the space-time variables into two individual variables. The idea is to solve the spatial vector component firstly, and then multiply it by the corresponded time component. The iterative methods based on METCE are introduced to recover the distribution of conductivity in magneto-acoustic tomography. The reconstructed images of conductivity are consistent with the original distribution, which validate the new method.

An Efficient Three-Dimensional Coupled Normal Mode Model and Its Application to Internal Solitary Wave Problems

We present an efficient three-dimensional coupled-mode model based on the Fourier synthesis technique. In principle, this model is a one-way model, and hence provides satisfactory accuracy for problems where the forward scattering dominates. At the same time, this model provides an efficiency gain of an order of magnitude or more over two-way coupled-mode models. This model can be applied to three-dimensional range-dependent problems with a slowly varying bathymetry or internal waves. A numerical example of the latter is demonstrated in this work. Comparisons of both accuracy and efficiency between the present model and a benchmark model are also provided.

A SEQUENTIAL TESTING PROGRAM FOR PREDICTING AND IDENTIFICATING CARCINOGENS AND ITS APPLICATION

In this paper our studies about the sequential testing program for predicting and identificating carcinogens, sequential discriminant method and cost- effectiveness analysis are summarized. The analysis of our database of carcinogeniclty and genotoxicity of chemicals demonstrates the uncertainty . of short- term tests ( STTs ) to predict carcinogens and the results of most routine STTs are statistically dependent. We recommend the sequential testing program combining STTs and carclnogenicity assay, the optimal STT batteries, the rules of the sequential discrimination and the preferal choices of STTs tor specific chemical class. For illustrative pmposes the carclnogenicity prediction of several sample chamicals is presented. The results of cost-effectiveness analysis suggest that this program has vast social-economic effectiveness.

NEW SYNTHETIC METHOD OF 4,4'-OXYBIS(BENZOIC ACID)AND ITS APPLICATION IN POLYESTER

4,4'-Oxybis(benzoic acid)(Ⅰ)is an important monomer for making synthetic resin,heat resistant film and liquid crystal fiber,etc.It has been synthesized either by the oxidation of 4,4'-dimethyl diphenyl ether,or by the electrophilic substitution of diphenyl ether,these substituents introduced into the benzene ring can be further transformed into carboxylic groups.Diphenyl ethers are usually prepared from phenols and halobenzenes through Ullmann resction.Due to the high reaction temerature(usually above 200℃),long time heating and the formation of isomers,it is difficult to obtain pure products in high yields.

ENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY OF HUMAN PLACENTA TYPE GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASE AND ITS APPLICATION IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF HEPATOCARCINOMA

GST-π was purified from human placenta and its antiserum was raised in rabbits. The antibody IgC was purified and degraded into Fab' fragment which was conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) using N-succinimidyl-4-(N-maleimido-methyl) cyclo-hexane-1-carboxylate (SMCC) as crosslinking reagent to produce Fab'-HRP conjugate. A sandwich ELISA was established for the microquantitative determination of GST-π. The sensitivity was 11 pg/tube, which was far more sensitive than the radioimmunoassay so far reported. Using this method, the serum GST-π of 41 cases normal adult was found to be 1.06±0.94 ng/ml. The upper limit of the normal value was 2.6 ng/ml. In 30 cases of primary hepatocarcinoma, the level of serum GST-π was 24.4± 17.4 ng/ml, which was 23 times higher than the normal average value (P<0.01). The positive rate was 90%. In contrast, serum GST-π in 25 cases of chronic hepatitis was determined to be 1.74±1.16 ng/ml, which was not significantly different from the normal value (P>0.05). The pseudo-positive rate was 12.0%.

Efficient Expression and Purification of Fc-fragment-binding Domain and Its Application to Immunoglobulin G Purification

The number of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies used in clinical trials has recently increased dramatically, leading to the development of optimized downstream purification processes[1]. Staphylococcal protein A （SPA）, a cell-wall protein of Staphylococcus aureus, has been developed as a universal ligand for immunoglobulin G （IgG） purification because it binds specifically to the Fc portion of the IgG molecule of many mammals[2]. However, certain characteristics of SPA severely restrict the advancement of the antibody industry.

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and its application in life sciences

Inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has made much progress since its birth in the late 1990s. This paper will give a rather systematic overview on the use of this technique in new devices and technologies related to plasma source, sample-introducing device and detecting spectrometer etc. In this overview, an emphasis will be put on the evaluation of the ICP- MS technique in combination with a series of physical, chemical and biological techniques, such as laser ablation (LA), capillary electrophoresis (CE) and high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC), along with their representative high accuracy and high sensitivity. Finally, comprehensive and fruitful applications of the ICP-MS and its combinative techniques in the detection of trace metallic elements and isotopes in complex biological and environmental samples will be revealed.

Dating Model of Illite Grain Rb-Sr Isochron and Its Application to Precambrian Stratigraphy

This paper discusses the Rb-Sr geochemical behaviour of illites in the sedimentary process, and points out that illites of the lmd and lm types could reach Sr-isotopic equilibrium with its environmental medium during the sedimentary process and initial stage of diagenesis, and illite grains of different sizes have various Rb contents. A new dating method for sedimentary rocks----a dating model of illite grain Rb-Sr isochron----is established, in consideration of the geochemical process of Sr-isotopic homogenization and differentiation in the course of their formation and evolution. In addition, the paper concerns the application of the dating model to the Precambrian unmetamorphosed sedimentary rocks in western Henan Province, which gives satisfactory results coincident with the geological facts.

MIXED HYBRID PENALTY FINITE ELEMENT METHOD AND ITS APPLICATION

The penalty and hybrid methods are being much used in dealing with the general incompatible element, With the penalty method convergence can always be assured, but comparatively speaking its accuracy is lower, and the condition number and sparsity are not so good. With the hybrid method, convergence can be assured only when the rank condition is satisfied. So the construction of the element is extremely limited. This paper presents the mixed hybrid penalty element method, which combines the two methods together. And it is proved theoretically that this new method is convergent, and it has the same accuracy, condition number and sparsity as the compatible element. That is to say, they are optimal to each other.Finally, a new triangle element for plate bending with nine freedom degrees is constructed with this method (three degreesof freedom are given on each corner -- one displacement and tworotations), the calculating formula of the element stiffness matrix is almost the same as that of the old triangle element for plate bending with nine degrees of freedom But it is converged to true solution with arbitrary irregrlar triangle subdivision. If the true solution u?H3 with this method the linear and quadratic rates of convergence are obtianed for three bending moments and for the displacement and two rotations respectively.

Interaction between Cationic Surfactants and Bromopyrogallol Red as well as Its Application for the Sensitive and Selective Determination of Mo in Mo/W Binary Mixtures

Prior to formation of the micelles of cationic surfactant (CSF), bromopyrogallol red (BPR) could exist in the forms of both monomer and oligomer After that, however, only BPR monomer existed. Nonionic surfactant OP-10 favoured the oligomerization of BPR monomer. The mixed micellar media prepared by mixing CSF and OP-10 in an appropriate ratio could be used for the sensitive and selective determination of Mo in Mo/W binary mixtures.

Transformation Behaviour of Austenite in Steel under Condition of Stress-strain and Its Application

Austenite can be retained at ambient temperature in steels by alloying and processing control. The transformation from austenite to martensite occurs under a certain conditions : thermal or deformation. Stress-strain induced martensitic transformation is important to improve the plasticity of steels which is called transformation induced plasticity (TRIP). Strength-ductility balance of the steels is greatly superior to that of other high strength steels due to the TRIP effect. A new type of steels-TRIP steel is developed
