The chemotactic ability of the sperm ensures fertilization success. Using unialgal male and female gametophyte material under designated standard gametogenesis testing (SGT) conditions, the potential life-span of the sperm of two seaweeds, Saccharina japonica and Undaria pinnatifida, was assessed by their ability to fertilize eggs. Results show that within 20-30 min after being discharged, sperm of both species could complete fertilization without an apparent decline in fertilization rate. Although fertilization rate 60-120 min after sperm discharge dropped significantly in both species, some sperm were viable enough to fertilize the eggs. In S.japonica, at 12°C, some sperm were able to fertilize eggs up to 12 h after discharge. In both species, egg discharge rates (EDR) in the male and female mixed positive controls were significantly higher than those of all the sperm-testing groups. Doubling the seeded male gametophytes of S. japonica in the SGT tests significantly increased the EDR, further confirming the effect of the presence of the male on the female in terms of facilitating egg discharge from oogonia.展开更多

When the dissipation coefficient is equal to zero it is shown that the smooth solutions develop shocks in the finite time if the initial amounts of entropy and magnetic field are smaller than those of sound waves; when it is larger than zero, and the initial amounts of entropyI this dissipation coefficient and the magnetic field in each period are smaller than those of sound Waves, then the smooth solutions blow up in the finite time. Moreover, the life-span of the smooth solution is given.展开更多

This paper provides an overview and discussion of the two years results of a longitudinal study performed with users and several cork products. The research aimed to tackle the process of life-span, and the results include: (1) the identification and interrelation of the aspects influencing the life-span of the products; (2) the evolution of life-span over time; and (3) new knowledge and guidelines arising about the material. Overall, most cork products are still being used, have a very good life-span, and most issues arising are material related.展开更多

Method: H2O2 induced Drosophila melanogaster agingmodel was used to study the effects of flavonoids from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. Secondly, the effects ofbaicalein and wogonin on mRNA expressions were examined. Results: Our results found that baicalein andwogonin could extend the life-spans of H2O2 induced Drosophila melanogaster aging model via increased mRNAexpressions of superoxide dismutase catalase and rosy. Conclusion: Baicalein and wogonin could extend life-spansof H2O2 induced Drosophila melanogaster aging model through increasing mRNA expressions of superoxidedismutase, catalase and rosy.展开更多
