We describe the relations between information content and sensitivity, specificity, efficiency, prevalence rate. If sensitivity, specificity and efficiency are fixed, the closer to 0. 5 the prevalence rate is, the more the information content. If prevalence rate and efficiency are fixed, the closer to each other the sensitivity and specificity are, the more the information content. We compare the power of information content method, efficiecy test, Youden's index test and kappa coefficient method. The information content method has higher power than the other methods in most conditions. It is especially sensitive to the difference between two sensitivities. It comes to conclusion that the information content method has more virtues than the other methods mentioned in this paper.展开更多

We applied a least squares fitting method (LSFM) to reconstruct the wood moisture content (WMC) from the data measured with a planar capacitance sensor. A boundary element method (BEM) was used to compute the relationship between capacitance and the dielectric constant. A functional relationship between MC and the dielectric constant was identified by LSFM. The agreement of this final computation result with the experimental data indicates that this method can be used to estimate the WMC quickly and effectively with engineering analysis. Compared with popular statistical methods, a large number of experiments are avoided, some costs of testing are reduced and the efficiency of testing is enhanced.展开更多
It was found that the DNA-damaging agents N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG),methyl-methanesulphonate(MMS)and 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide(4NQO)could stimulate ADP-ribosyl transferase(ADPRT)activity and r...It was found that the DNA-damaging agents N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG),methyl-methanesulphonate(MMS)and 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide(4NQO)could stimulate ADP-ribosyl transferase(ADPRT)activity and reduce the cellular NAD content in a dose-dependent way.The reduction of NAD after DNA damage could be partially or completelyprevented by ADPRT inhibitors,3-aminobenzamide or nicotinamide,which showed noinfluence on reduction of NAD induced by metabolic blocking agents.Therefore,a simpleand specific method to detect DNA-damaging mutagens by measuring ADPRT-mediateddecrease of cellular NAD content was explored.Using β-naphthofiavone,a mixed functionoxygenase inducer,together with induced or uninduced human amnion FL cells,it was foundthat aflatoxin B<sub>1</sub>,benzo(a)pyrene,2-acetylaminofluorene,9,10-dimethylanthracene andethylcarbamate could induce the ADPRT-mediated decrease of cellular NAD content,while4-acetylaminofluorene,anthracene,isopropyl-N-(3-chlorophenyl)-carbamate,β-propiolactone,γ-butyrolactone,cyclophosphamide and safrol could not.The results indicate that this isa cheap and specific method to detect DNA damage caused by chemical carcinogens/mutagenswith a spccificity approaching that of the unscheduled DNA synthesis assay.展开更多

Following a study on the choice of the best formulations, the quantity of rubber latex used for shaping varies between 14% and 18% (latex/sand + latex ratio) for the carpet with the fabric of mosquito nets and between 16% and 18% for the one made with the fabric of cotton fiber. Thus, with a mixture of sand, fiber fabrics (cotton and mosquito nets) and rubber latex, carpets were developed. In addition, the wear test carried out on these samples indicates that it is possible to produce carpets with the new material made of rubber sand and latex: SABLATEX At room temperature. Following the characterization test, it resorts to only 16% latex with cotton fiber fabric, allowing to have carpets with good mechanical characteristics.展开更多
